Who is she? So beautiful in heart being and kind She walks up the street every morning Craving acceptances in the heart of men She dresses in every desire and every sense She lays in the heart of kings and dines on gold and silver She honors the man who seeks her, with prudence and […]

THE AME[AF]RICAN
The Ame[af]rican I heard the ships are gone Why you still at the harbour Are you loving sight of the seas? Or the sound of oversees on The dark lips of the locals Your forefathers were Cowards May be not your fathers; they are Still here in their forefather’s shrine Apples don’t fall afar […]
In Love
I’m in love – with a woman, but I’m credulous. (I only pretend) So she plays my heart like David’s harp, I Ienjoy the tune. We are in a temple set across a God who knows what’s concealed in the breasts of men. She prays and pleads guilty – discreetly that let God forgive whom […]
To Love
(From a Bleeding Heart) It is anguish To love from a bleeding heart That of a troubled soul Love, I feel you closer from a distance But while I draw closer I feel you farther From my heart I send messengers Loaded with jars of love They go pass my gate […]
The shepherds

I QUIT
I quit making up excuses to cover My failures for that is foolish, I quit pride, anger, lust, laziness, jealousy etc. I’m making up for my past Today I’m professing and gearing All my efforts towards trying For I know I can, I will try Till success is achieved I quit all the […]
Holy Sins
Those fingers raised towards heaven Raises for the F-sign in a smoky pub And will finger Delilah, in the dimly-lit closet Tonight . The voice leading a dozen worshippers Is a centurion, commandeering a hundred sins Shrieking the antiphon to their chants With the whispering night . The hands flipping through leaves of Holy Books […]
O soldier!
Your careless bullet has gathered people in mourning… You didn’t sign up for this that faithful morning… You’ve devastated a life under construction without warning. O soldier! What happened? What happened to the rule of horning? O soldier! You maybe anonymous to us, You lost your brake like a bus, You ran him through […]
