I watch your riveting sonatas
Layer decadent truffles
Upon his pupils

Leaking wanton tears

Grasping for serenity
To have epilogue’s slow dance

You latch onto love’s empty façade.

No return flights to your destination.

Where are YOUR wings, angel?

An embedded hunger for him 
To treat you like a priceless prayer

But, his knees are...

waking to timidity of the
psyche
the day feels doomed not 
right

push through it all till night
fall
arriving home he seems so
tall

sensing weakness starts a 
fight
pushing all buttons with
insight

trying to remain calm and
strong
he wins- trophy tears
torch-song

Momentous meteor shower of words
Plethora of metered color absurd
Rainbows falling to the ground
With syllable shakes and bobo refrains
Lamentable lemon sunsets of pain

Our God stuns with just one sound

Err not, for he certainly beautifies
Wing’d articulation of butterflies
Enchanting chanting with wings
Whilst poet’s tongue sticks to roof of...

TROPHY
Test my courage
Remove my fear
Offer me naught nothing
Push to the limit
History will be made.
You are the *****.

To get it, the hot-blooded campus youth
booed and cheered, screamed and shrieked,
fought and cheated.


It fanned the hysteria of intramural sports
where the losers wailed, the vicotrs
jubilated.


Now rusty, it leans on a heap of rubbish,
the Overall Champion Trophy

From the wonder days of Thierry,
his every move makes us merry.
Then the magic of Wiltord,
reminds us he is the field Lord.
Oh! the fluidity and the best of Fabregas,
showing as though never out of gas.
The gracious quick feet of Theo,
shows the natural instinct of a Leo.

If you hear the sound of rat-tat-a-tat
It's not a woodpecker or a chattering cat
Tis George F. Latulence an aristocrat
Playing ping pong with his gold crested bat.

A competitor and show-off he deems to be
Dresses each day in his noble finery
Pantaloons his normal fancy day wear
His ancestry,...

The fans are wild and crazy -
It’s the name of the game…
The game that’s most watched on the planet!
No, not American football -

Why it’s the soccer match of course – what else!
You’re simply an outsider if you’re not a fan –
Everyone covets that annual Ballon...
