Combat Sarong
This sash is made of memories
emotions and things pulled from times
good and bad
It hangs loose on my body, it used to restrict me
round about a few times, I pull it taut when you come close
Silat started as a form of mysticism
Even the bad things I hold close
the things you try to forget, they make me who I am
I can take you down with just a flick of the wrist
The sash will wrap around you
spooling comfort
until it gets pulled a bit, restricting like an anaconda
Loved the poem – the tightness that chokes and these 2 lines
Even the bad things I hold close
the things you try to forget, they make me who I am
Thank you for sharing.
