Kingsmead Eyes Speak Led by Gideon Mendel

I am 10 years old, I live in Hackney and I was born in Homerton Hospital. My Mom is from Montserrat and my Dad is from Jamaica.

My favourite hobby is football and I like sports.

I have three sisters and two brothers. My big brother is 17, my little brother is 5, my big sister is 14, my second big sister is 13 and my little sister is 8 and that’s my life story.

There is a grave yard in my head
A cemetery of the almost dead.

Graveyard

There is a grave yard in my head
A cemetery of the almost dead
Spirits like water ghost rise like mist from the seas
Vampires, zombies and duppies
Spirits shoot across the doom
The moon is full and the
Wind sighs, lights like bullets
Like fire works,
Evil blue hurt.
