though winter is here, we can’t afford to chill; the progress made is too dear and we must continue to build… no matter the level of snow, no matter the amount of ice, we must always remain on the go for those who have paid the price ensuring our black lives matter in this political ice we can’t have another winter of discontent with our liberation again frozen in frigid time; the loud cry was...

How can we understand each other's color, When we use the same flavored word? It's impossible to say it any duller, And through our glasses the meaning is blurred. To you something bright as the sky, Will always strike me as navy blue. With a fire truck we could try, But to me it is simply maroon. Something as distinct as a rainbow, To...

Forget the cautionary calls for restraint — this world doesn’t need saviors. It wants hands that claw at the roots, Sick fangs that grind old ideas to dust. Ideas aren’t soft; they’re detonators, charged and ready to shatter the silence. You don’t repair a broken machine by merely shining its rust. The absence of thinking is a pandemic— eradicate it like a disease. Smash apathy...

Corruption reigns while silence is served. We hone their knives with indifference, keep polishing their plates with our fatigue. The reckless and the cruel— they feast well, for the tables are laid.

Still, in the face of fear we hesitate, lacking...

Dark and vile truths are known to hide in secret places that don't confide their nature to the light of day. Bodies to skeletons decay in a closet or a deep well - an unknown place, a hidden hell. What is more shocking to me - the ugliness for all to see, as folks stroll by without a care, as if there...

we encounter a neighbour who suffering from delusional dementia he mumbles and stumbles in delirium we pause awhile to assist yet we know his disability is permanent so apart from informing his kith and kin who in any event are apathetic there is nothing we really do all around we see suffering and decay something within us too...

Depression is a Nomad wanderer, searching for a hope to break In that place of heartless, smoke-filled rot where even laughter proves to fake. The Darkness is a bold intruder, a critique of one's existence, And hides in places, corners of gloom, an outcast from soul's resistance. In the Café of Apathy, the face of dejection reappears, Taking...

I wrap my fingers around the pen which has lain dormant collecting dust for months on end feeling as if I'm lifting a fifty pound weight straining not just my joints but my brain, its neurons refusing to fire like the broken burner of a gas stove with a malfunctioning igniter fouling the air with noxious fumes as it fails to burst into blue...
