Loving From Afar

Loving From Afar


Staring at you even only from a distance
Is enough for me even without a chance
Your presence I always got from a glance
Making my heart comes out to dance


Suitor of a dream, catching a midnight
Sailor in the sea, waiting for a twilight
Breaking the horizon, nearly left to right
Loving from afar is like losing on a fight


The hundreds of but, what if’s, and maybe
Are the cycles of love and what it can be
It may be romance, subtle, or tragedy
Just like loving you without knowing me


But no courage to show the feelings inside
Doubts are dominating with fears alongside
Beats of the heart doubled like a riptide
But I will always here loving by your side

The white woman's tears

Their tears drown out truth
In a thick coating of white lies 
Used to prepare our demise
Each tear, a loss, a death, a wound 
That seals our communities doom
A cry for war without any real cause 
Our flesh the only thing it burns
A pain that continues into the next generations 

Fragility they use for power
Without it they would starve to death
Insecurities dictate their minds
Flooded by the truth of how they feel
Dominating their being without attention 
They don't just crave it, they need it like the air they breathe 
Or the alternative dealing with their thoughts of inferiority 
Whilst being clouded by jealousy 
They feel to the race they claim to hate 
Yet copy everything we do 
That steals everything we've built

The power of the white woman's tear
Is something to be studied
Something so dangerous it's killed more than the white man
Curated a war against the black man 
Killing the innocent with their blood Soaked tears
This a crime gone unpunishable for centuries

Advisory for Adversary

The sun unfolds, precisely peeking through
the light of stars, dominating ink-spilled nights. 
Its rays graze softly on blooming wounds 
as sirens set off warnings of incoming dunes.

O vulnerable soul! I pray you stay quiet,
hold dearly onto the kaleidoscopic life 
slowly flowing out of your diluted sight. 
O transient time! I pray you stay still for a while, 
and let the sediments settle— 
as the river carries away what's old and vile.

There will be another dawn.
When the sun unfolds again, 
its light grazes softly on wounds withered with time. 
As sirens hail warnings of unknown threats, 

O powerful mind! I pray (and know) you'll never fret.

the funnymans mask

based on the song-tears of a clown by Iron Maiden
---------------------------------------------------------------------
afraid people will see your truth
  so you lived wearing a mask
a mask 
      to protect you
from all the worlds
                        judgements

as you spun your
                        crazy world
you entered the masquerade
you took a leap
                 into the unknown
to be the funny man
                              the clown

but this mask you wore
also protected you from
     your created illusion
   and the paranoia hiding
                                  within

all around they lit up your name
outwardly was a glow
but
inwardly the whirlwind spun
spinning inside
              the darkness

dominating all bounds

the black fog of frustration seeped 
           into your soul
torment spread its tentacles
trapping you inside the cage of hell

  most fly into heaven
but upon a demons wing
         you descended

 you mended hearts with laughter
          a real life Patch Adams

THE EVILS OF RACISM

I am human with the same dignity and power,
then why treat me like an alien?
Our skincolour differs, but we are all created and designed by one God and maker.

I have great potentials just like the white man,
But I am treated and rejected just because of my colour.
I undergo physical, emotional and social discrimination and suppression, 
Just because my skin colour is black.

I have been enslaved and colonized by a foreign master,
Beaten and suppressed to accept a foreign rule,
Discriminated because of my elegant black beauty.

Striving to live and survive in this dominating world,
But all efforts seems futile.
I will continue to make efforts and see that my skin colour is appreciated and upheld in the society at large.

humankind

Humankind 

In an article, the question was what is the meaning of life? Many answers were about personal fulfillment and what made a person happy, but no one could answer that question. This I think is because we in the West are not religious, we do not believe in a God we are alone and that is scary and has an echo of colossal loneliness and the universe is empty
Night and day, light and dark, the fundament of
In all religions, perhaps the question of the meaning of life was asked and not answered 
How the man-animal came into being is academic  
But it was an animal that could think and become a human-dominating the living world 
We can assume they were not friendly and had clans going around killing each other as we do today 
The meaning of life is this, with a bit of love thrown for the sake of procreation, that it has no meaning, we live and die and are dead forever

his girl Friday

She was hired to be a Girl Friday
I refuse to answer to that, she said
Not during the hour-long interview
But her first five minutes on the job

Her demands and preferences were many
She wanted top billing if she helped him edit his books
She expected a substantial raise after two weeks
She threatened to sue him twice in the first ninety days

The boss was a bit smitten with the woman
He had finally met a woman who was a match for his mother
Overbearing, dominating, demanding,
He wanted to woo her and wed her

Marriage to her would have been his mother’s thorn
The former Girl Friday sued him for sexual harassment
She took half his company and a lot of his money
Forty years later he still thinks of her fondly

GLORY AND VICTORY

From victory to victory 
Our storyline 
As we journey through life 
But all glory
To our maker
Making us victorious 
In all circumstances.

Glory to thy way maker
Always making a way 
For us to be victorious 
That's what he's best known for
Leading us to victory 
Triumphing over all
That rises against us.

Grace and favor 
He's always bestowed on us
Glory to our maker 
For ease and effortlessness
All we get he gave
Without hesitating
Victoriously dominating all territory
Glory to our maker for he's our helper.

Toxic darts unveil,
Dominating land is mine
Greed is on the line.

Trust Issues

The endless possibilities/
Of trust issues begin with only/
One trust to be broken or betrayed/
Promises made, confessions of love/
Relationships gone wrong/
One seed of deceit/
Grows into a tree of hate/
Eyes only seeing deception/
That may or may not be there/
Trust alone can make one/
Believe in forever/
And love will prevail above all/
One misdeed, a broken promise/
So many false words/
Covered with a silver tongue/
A hint of doubt/
One action big or small/
Makes no difference/
Given a chance, it will consume thoughts/
Dominating the ability to think/
Straight, causing wrecks/
Of every kind/
Something that hangs in the/
Balance of our life/
In this life or death/
Trust issues will either/
Make you or break you/

Whispers of Butterfly

Ah! red butterfly, with your
        , glorious, majestic
         wings flying around the
         refulgent, fearless creek .
   And a green bird is adorned with
 ecstatic , blue aroma.
Oh, blue dove, break  the unbounded,
unbreakable chains, to nestle
an unwavering felicity, in your dreamy
unchained land.
Ah! rambling roses stem the
 stormy, tempestuous fetters
of the sun, from dominating
 the celestial, overcast sky.
The invincible, dauntless lily gazing at
the enchanting dawn
shielding against the ashen ,
golden demise.
Oh, green dream always succumb
to the unfearing, splendid  hill.
Ah! enraptured brook suffuse
the endless, unflagging dusk.

OLODUMARE; a piece of my gratitude

This is a complexly simple piece,
It's a creation's toil to put into words thoughts about His creator, who made the world with the words of His mouth, without precedent.

Olodumare

The infatomable mystery above human existence.
The Lord of all lordship
The most creative creator who created creations with the capacity to create.

 Olodumare

Ogbánì tó n gbá ni lówó alagbara
Alagbara àrà tí òsè fò jù dì
The one whose power is unlimited to the limitations of mortal discoveries and imaginations.

Olodumare

You are faithfulness, even when my mess makes me a fool.
You are meticulously detailed in the expression of Your love for the one who goes astray.

Olodumare

You still the waters before leading me beside still waters
God is what You are, regardless of human experience.

Olodumare

It is You who makes, mars, and remakes.
And Your dominion is dominance over every dominating human philosophy.
And to Your Majesty, I have come to say 'thank you'.

The Conference of the Crows

More important than any conference
In the world 
Is the conference of the crows.
Which took place 
Just outside my balcony at four.

The President of the crows 
Called the others looking troubled.
All came there 
Looking quite muddled .

The President, taking a deep breath, said
 "Caw,Caw,Caw,Caw,Caw".
Not caring about the people he will wake.
Then the crows, all in harmony, replied, 
"Caw, Caw,Caw,Caw,Caw".

Not a single man who woke up
Understood what they said.
But I knew that they were talking about
Dominating the human race.

Eye Floaters

The tiny specks grow titanic tension.
They’re often harmless, 
     Google consoles her. 
Yet a rare chance burns beyond solace. 
Is it a harbinger of retinopathy? 
Will her eye-LEDs illuminating soul be burnt out? 
Will tomorrow be void of light and colors? 
              As she moves her eyes,
                  the eye floaters drift, 
weaving a cobweb of questions.
If the sense dominating her brain fumbles and falls, 
                                   the eye sockets will be graves. 
Precious sights from her memory lane will haunt her. 
She loathes retreating into the dark burrow 
       like a greater bandicoot rat in the daytime.

                                                                              Later, 
an eye chart and a slit lamp efface her optical anxieties. 
‘Life floats across a variety of blurring things,’ 
                                    she muses and smiles.


Eye Floaters are spots in vision, like black or gray specks, string or cobweb.

The major difference I found between obedience,
and whitewashing a coal bin with a toothbrush.
While one was intent on dominating my thoughts,
the other to larceny my time and give ego a crush.
