Best Banters Poems

Where are you God?
Where are you?
I see you.
I see you
in the clouds as you influence them to swell,
and nudge each other in the ocean of blue sky;
like galleon ships
carrying cargo of tears.
I see you,
in the cool breeze.
The breeze embraces
and leaves a scent around my soul.

They come to me with their tall tales.
I pretend to listen to their fables
Appropriately sad, I say
It's well my sister. 
Everything will be fine 
I say it like I truly mean it.
The truth is,
I have my own problems to deal with.


People throw banters and enquire...

In the heated performance of the day, 
 summer wet evenings close the 
   curtains, concluding with a thunder 
     jest and a gift of wipe. The crawling 
       claws of the ceaseless...

Ol’ brazen Brenda, battlin’ biography,
Banters bewildered brave boatmen at sea,
Brushstrokes besieging her beleaguered brain,
Broadsided by fiction now baking insane;

Balanced between both broken and brilliant,
Buried by sorrow, bereft not resilient,
A ballyhooed author, back in the day,
‘Fore Brian betrothed her then drowned near the bay;

Basking bereavement, believing...

If they have to point out it is banter
cus you didn’t realise it as banter
As they left no clue it was banter
The simple fact is it’s not banter

Banter’s quick wit the sort with charm
not blunt brain dead comments which harm
banters apparent with its own alarm

Pistols shoot
and rifles unload
thunderous banters
initiate the race
she dives
into the Mekong River
stealth head start
she leads amongst the pack
of four boys and three girls
paddles faster than catfish

other swimmers dive
chasing for the finish line
the Thailand border
no one trains for this race
many do not know
how to swim
instincts ignite energy
in...

Blisters from shoes, hampered his speed
Banters from foes, sauntered to bleed
Ran barefooted, marathon booted
Ethiopia on his feet, milestone in feat....

She whimpers and whirs
She banters and she b****es
Tired of my abuse
She’s exacting her revenge
This may be my last message…

Look! She just censored my second line! 
This is total b*****s, PC!! What the h......

In sang-froid, sass cords:
Sangoma dashes siren,
Thunder crashes trunk;
Sarky banters with lippy.
Spim for Santa maidenhead....

 Sewing machine, long idle, gathered dust
Polished now in the  hallway, my  fond antique
Recalling Grandaunt’s delicate craftwork--
Each pattern of fabric threaded  with zest,
As her hands would bounce around pinpoint needles,
Weaving an array of doilies  rugs   garments
Intently absorbed  in...

Light of day
brings
a visitor.

Magnificent, 
grey-haired 
bastard
from 
nowhere
but here.

Banters at me,
"There is a
plan for you."

With hands spread
illustrates,
"From birth
to death..."

Pauses
and waits 
for me.

Then in revelation,
"and in between..."

Comes the promise,
"is life."...

For this has men ceased not to tell 
Why plead heaven to stop earth's hell
Is it to end their daily struggle 
And make their world a paradise resemble 
Or forsake their responsibility 
With a higher sense of vanity 
Are men tired to suck the earth...

Unifying Theories of Light

A waveform particle
Photon phantoms of packets
Indivisible 
Oceanic cosmos dusts the material
Separates its contact
By the touch
Of the physical

Human sight by synaptic
Records sunrisen hue 
Of tints painted brush strokes
Each brilliant parcel
In spectrum arches
Carries its message
Of choreographed stars

The gossamer veils of mirrors
Shine conduit
Sprinkle fireflies of...

How dark was it?
How indellibly dark?
A fateful Friday of fate
We shared banters in bits 
I asked you over and over
for the weekend but you declined
bacause you would rather share the 
moment with your family.
As I journeyed to the capital
I reckoned we would see on Monday.
then...
