Best Interpose Poems

Songs unsung will disappear,
as breathless as a stone, the fear
of Armageddon fills the air
and gathers strength against a prayer
that withers, fizzles into nought,
despite the lessons we were taught,
to love our neighbours as we would
be loved by them, the greater good.

Or take His name in vain,...

(Moses Gava Featuring Kudakwashe Victor Shoko)

Neither did it start yesterday
Nor yesteryear
A scroll further backward
Deep into the historical era 
I could see him crawling 
During those years of polling

They were born egoistical
I wish I were not
Philanthropic, I would have preferred
To see them holding my trifles
At them...

Leaves of Frost (on Glass)
Leaves of frost (fueled by more intimate breathing that thickens glass panes)
interpose art, between life's adlibs and detritus. Should life mock
a dead stars' diasporic aspects. Through eons of "spacetime," mute
murals form fractals, eclipse all the patterns the mind of man dreams?

No particular rhyme nor,
reason explains to boot
within mind of this (boyish
looking) ole coot,
why sudden flashback didst

kickstart metered metrical foot
when during bout with anorexia nervosa,
I did not give a hoot
analogously harried and swiftly kicked
with barebones styled tailored jackboot.

self starvation arose
without explicit explanation
