THE POETRY BUNGALOW by Seeta High School Writers Club
UGX20,000
“The young writers have vehemently demonstrated their frustrations, puzzles and hopes in a society with adults swallowed in know-it-all snobbery. The poetic arrows in this poetry collection declare war on societal silence on things that matter most and draw lines to proper order of the ideal society, a society in which they would love to dwell now as children and tomorrow as adults. It is a reflective collection of thoughts with thousands of options of solutions to our fears. It is work you wouldn’t abandon to dust.”
-Kened. B. Ngiise iii, teacher, poet/writer.
Excerpt
Julie sent me something sweeter than honey
She sent me something lovely
Something I was longing for
It made me smile
Julie sent me something
That made me look everywhere
Walking with my head up high
Something that made me talk to more girls
Something that made me party after party
And made me go home too late.
Julie said
“We are done.”
And I walked away happy
Because there were better fish in the sea.
