Chairman MeowThe tiger pounced,
Arrived unannounced,
She's Chairman Meow,
Don't know how,
Here anyway,
What to say?
Fine thinking woman this,
Doesn't take any blip,
A femme of self-esteem,
A misogynist's dream!
All dance to her tune,
Is this a tiger moon?
"Yes, dear," men reply,
I only look and sigh,
Why can't I be like that?
Training men--old hat?
Really...

Perhaps outside the storm is howling

Dear ChairmanDear Chairman:
It is the eleventh hour, Mr. Eleven,
nearest possible time ere it's too late.
Best days done, this is no seventh heaven.
Time will tell, will you become Xi, the Great?

The ChairManYou'll always have a special place
A home inside my heart
It's comfy, cozy, warm and snug
There's music and there's art
There's wooden floors and throw rugs
There's mountain views and streams
There's coffee pots in every room
And exercise machines
It's spacious, open, airy
There's flowers all year long
Lilacs mostly, every...

The Late Chairman Mao Tse TungYou're facing a gun complete with barrels
And of all things with firm holder quarrels!
Chairman Mao would have laughed at you
And kept repeating "No... No it's not true!"
I guess, definitely, in their Chinese,
Even if you had been a Taiwanese,
"Why don't you reserve games of Squirrel!"
If you...

President Trump and Chairman XicadaAfter the riot-
with chairman Wuhan swirling around his head
president Trump, with bible in hand,
strolled from the embattled white house
toward a smoldering church
quoted some apocalyptic verse
then cussed out the press...
For the first time in seventeen years
the cicadas are snickering-...

Chairman and ScandalJohn Fred had been a nice chairman,
Able to Union's Machine man:
John Fred: Your Excellent Buddy,
For years your preferred study;
Lots of quotes from his speeches
His Firmness Ideas he preaches,
Until David saw Bathsheba
With the glamour of Queen Sheba
Out dashing like a Mad Vandal
After lust and winning...

Happy Anniversary, Goan Institute, NairobiA place to call home
A field in which to roam
A hundred and fifteen reasons
As many Christmas seasons
We are justifiably proud
To be one of the crowd
Come rain or sunshine
We are just fine
Under lockdown, our spirits soar
To toast each other, once more
As,our illustrious past Chairs, we praise
To...

Can a Miser Be WiserThey all know the capacity
He’s enjoying in their city,
His hurting voice at its loudest;
Body movements of the proudest,
Powered by his swell bank account;
Many swear he does billions count;
Yes, his pay slips on a table
And No Normal remained stable…
Yet, it has been Trickles from him;
If you...

Dust Laden ChairWe all know when to find it:
The time guests ate to down sit
And host cleans chairs not a bit,
Careless cleaners sometimes hit,
A move to have their throats slit
Or sure make their teeth they grit…
When it’s windy, streets dusty,
Not-paid maid with tasks rusty;
Rooms by owners left...
