Best Sudanese Poems
Tears of a Refugee ChildBorn into suffering
Born to be malnourished
Born in the bush
Born on the run
Born under the umbrella of poverty
Born to be a refugee
Born in the middle of despair
Born in worries
Born in the frightful time
Born with the horrified blood
Son of the scream
Daughter of bombs
Sister of landmines
Brother...

The Blame GameThe world wants to attack
England, for invading
other countries,
You invaded America,
Again let's play
The blame Game,
Your Ancestors
Invaded Australia,
Your Ancestors
Invaded America,
your Ancestors
Invaded New Zealand,
Your Ancestors
Invaded Africa,
Lets play the
Blame game,
Yet Sudanese tribes,
invaded other tribes,
taking slaves as the victory
of battle,
The New Zealand

Cry AfricaShe
is
a
fine
damsel,
Fluent
in
Swahili,
Walking
barefoot
on
the
dusty
streets
of
Mali,
Cracks
under
her
feet
incured
from
decades
of
strife,
Caves
of
filth
and
so
they
mock
her
when
she
passes
by,
As
the
darkness
thickens
the
silence
becomes
more
terrifying,
She
searches
for
a

Love and CareLove and care
It is movables love plus care
Obtained to our mom
It real love I dare
We found from our real mom
It is loved future seen
Given by our black mom
Love and fear
It is totally fear
Regenerated from our dad
Though it is clear
Good manner from our dad
Love and help

My DestinyI have a destiny,
That most of you look down on,
As being poor and backward.
That many desire to change and have me assimilated,
But I'm surely destined to be African.
When you meet me, I've got more melanin,
And my smile isn't as charming as you wish,
And my nose...

RelocationSaw a man at a snowy bus stop
Tall and lean
Black as black can be
Probably in his Sunday best
This Monday morning.
My guess Sudanese.
Here on compassionate grounds
Home country ripped apart
Tribal and religious strife.
What might he have seen Lord?
What atrocities and robbery?
What loved ones abandoned?
With no other apparent...

Ballad
The Last CallThe final call of the last male of a species ,
Sounds a bit like a broken record,
Or maybe it sounds like choking blood,
Red, breathing and hollow.
It isn’t poetic
It’s just red
When we look at a wheezing forest we try to call it...

Prejudice--The Reality --Part 2Prejudice--THE REALITY --PART 2
Prejudice
Yellow man, Red man, White man, Black man;
Yellow man, Red man, White man, Black man;
Yellow man, Red man, White man, Black man;
The whole wide world is filled with dissolution;
Poverty in the streets over mass distributions;
Prejudice
WHAT?
Why! Oh, tell me why;
Must these races,...

SexinessSEXINESS
Knowing me as a sensitive and caring person,
What I find sexy, as you may have suspected,
(Although by rationalizing the situation it will only worsen)
Is based on real people with whom I have been connected
For example dark hair about jaw length
A dress with a flared...

Bravo For DiversityThe show's leading lady sports a goatee
Braided armpits bear her understudy
Times have changed at the university
The cast now picked for its diversity
Two Hispanics, two Poles, and two Russkis
Five from the country and five from cities
Cuban nationals who know...

Sonnet
First SeenFirst sighting
It was an early summer morning when my best friend Edwin
threw pebbles on my window to wake me up
I like morning slumber, waking up at six, looking at the alarm
the clock on the bedstand and think of two hours more sleep.
Ewin said there...

Breathless chase after shadowsAs the dark veil covered the sky,
I was left with no choice but to resign to fate.
The enemy was relentless in their pursuit—
My platoon scattered after the strike on Khartoum.
Only two bullets remain~
One to kill another,
The other for myself.
I was lucky to find an abandoned...

The old ship
rust stripped like a Sudanese mule
doomed to carry fleeing people across
a landscape of despair
Why, she floats is a lasting mystery
From one obscure port to another
she finds her way
The captain and the chief are never sober
plays ten-cent poker
The captain signs the manifesto but takes
no interest, what's...
