The poet's prayers
I woke up empty I couldn't feel any touch neither warmth or cold How can I cope with a distance so unmeasured in hope ? Dear Lord please hold on and rope wire me back to mount Sina a place of miracle and hope Light my lone path without refrains and borders and repaint my scary walls white Then they will hear my voice at the mountain top My visible dance of victory and praise shall flow like the Nile And my smile shall spread like the sands of sharia desert Please drought my tale telling tears ...
Magnificent Mary ( MM )
Hello magnificently beautiful Mary A kismet so Aesthetically gorgeous like the Garnets of heaven in the evening A namesake to my mom that bridges day and night In the tapestry of fate in a plate of happiness, love and kindness A bond that whispers secrets heart to heart, and mind to mind Though i haven't seen you, but your photos write and scribe impeccably loudly Your eyes are like rubies that shimmer bright and blue Reflecting the beauty that my soul longs to hold dearly Your touch I know...
MY DIALOGUE WITH PLANTAIN ( POEM)
An Ode to Plantain My dearest plantain, Bereba, how could you forget how we both took care of each other ? The love we shared, the memories we've knit in mama's kitchen Your incomparable sweetness and ability to energise someone 6 to 6 still haunt me like the scars of Hiroshima and Nagasaki It's like a longing within In ripe or unripe moments, I adore your comforting strength and taste Your love I explore Fried, boiled, or roasted, your sweetness remains A flavorful solace soothing my always...
CONQUERED TEARS
I've learned to lavishly launder lingering tears, Lavish tears that were worth shedding To wipe away wrenching wounds of worn-out years, Worn years that weighed me down with weary fears I've learned to wear a warm, winsome sunny smile, I wear it well, through winding roads and trials vile To show the world a brave, bold, and beaming face, A beautifully brave face that beckons hope and banishes the darkest spots But still I feel the piercing pang of pain, Pain that persists with a lingering re...
Echoes of a compromised code
Before you, love was a foreign code, so strange apart A threat to my robotic design You crashed into my controlled space and rewrote my programming with tender grace You ignited human emotions within And set my heart ablaze with love's fierce spin Now, tears fall like golden rain, As my heart bleeds in pain with every thoughts of you My system overloads, my thoughts astray, I wish I could reboot and format every impossible data Aching with each beat, night and day This love-sickness spread...
FLAMES FROM THE NIGER DELTA
Gone up in flames !!! Let's take the blame for feeding the lion and it's cubs All I see is the smokes that stretches to the heavy sky All I hear is doleful sounds just as the claws of the beautiful devil try When I asked why ? The response was shy to spawn The stench of the roasted innocents is what I perceive The testimonial ashes of our humble homes is all I see. Flames ! Flames !! The houses have gone to hell Even as the defenceless fell to the sharpness of their own God given wealth May ...
SLEEP HAS BETRAYED ME
BETRAYED BY SLEEP Sleep, Sleep, you've betrayed my weary eyes And you made my heart not to trust time even in the darkest of hours Who can lend me their sight? Who can sell me their peaceful slumber? I'm exhausted from witnessing the tireless industrious mosquitoes flapping their wings like a roaring lion salivating before its prey It's 5:32 a.m yet I am still doubtful of my ability to conquer this wakeful night.
