To Journalists Compromising

Walking here and there,
Scrounging for messages of Care,
Journalists of the day.
Standing by at door or gate
Spirited, to interrogate the great.

A long-serving microphone,
Miking words from those interviewed,
And an esteemed bagged camcorder on the shoulder;
Always await eventual days
So they’d pace with grace

But, their presentations tremble under status’ feet
Whereto their integrity doth greet.
Their job hence counts slackness of Justice:
That if they are to question a poor fellow,
They’ll do it diligently till he’s zero
But if they are to question a rich man,
Minister or president in particular,
The ‘eye-box’ is covered with red cloth,
Their journals closed, 
And their inkers halt;
They’ll compromise till he’s out of any cases.

Sorry
They are!
Turning a blind eye to the rich’s injustices
And giving a bright eye to the poor’s…
Yellow Journalism eke in Africa?

Premium MemberThe Esteemed Poetry Critic

My brother, one year younger
 and an athlete of some note,
once found my private notebook,
 seeing poetry I wrote.

Before that day I fancied that
 my writing held some unction;
I worked to craft each poem so
 to serve a noble function.

I'd rather hoped each one would stir
 its reader's soul profoundly,
but brother claims their value lies
 in helping souls sleep soundly.

Premium MemberAugust 8 Esteemed Date

August 8, Esteemed Date
My brother the reflective other,
Thoughtful father, contemplative friend,
Helpful mend, curative treasure,
Michelle is Rob's God send,
Lucas his venture, a raison d'être,
My bro' bucks the trend,
One of a kind measure, to whom we're indentured,
So humble, Rob's beneath ground,
Big heart, quick start, smart ardor,
Laughing at life, he'll be among the standing at the end,
Rob's a Hall o' Famer but he'll decline the corridor,
Not one for honor, another's honor Rob would rather tend!

Premium MemberEsteemed Rise-

Self esteem
 long in the way of the dream
 nightmare schemes bellowings

When born flames 
glowing in the wind 
settling streams flowing floating
Pride now no longer~skies

Self control rise

Premium MemberEsteemed Age Glaze

The warm patina of old age is cherished
revered, conserved, protected as irreplaceable.
Unlike the wrinkles and scars
that deface waned youth expired.
Only time and good care
coats much-loved keepsakes 
with protective patina - 
the glaze and sheen of esteemed age.
