Excellencies Poems


Premium MemberProclamation Evil

Famine preys upon a desolated civilization 
Dying out the old breed new world awaits 
What makes one soul defile goodness 
The heart, as if it does not feel 
Is mankind just a beast of nature's mix 
Devouring the lamb like wolf's they are 
We are farmers of the nations growth 
Sow a seed, pass knowledge not the buck 
We depend upon the other to feed world 

Kids killing kids,as adult we kill our own 
Lead by example, they strip God from belief 
Corrupt being of evil's greed run deadly wild 
Fight good and evil rumbles the house 
Who runs the temple, they fill us with hate 
Of their own demise their thirst is quench 
Evil of one's heart bleeds its color 

Do us good, I think not future at hand 
But tomorrow I may not see sun rise sky 
A bird in a bath, youngster at play with no care 
Tomorrow could end today while love carries on 
Give to society what's better, not evil's desire proclamation 
But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy 
nation, a people for his own possession that you may 
proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light

X-Ray

Love meets us where we are

and sees through

 Our disguises

Our guises

Our performances

Our nuances

Our expectations

Our innovations

Our convictions

Our contradictions

Our excellencies

Our inconsistencies

Love greets us where we are

Sees right through us

and does not run away

Upside-Down

Many rolling baskets 
man-made creatures
with big eyes watch us
Noise surrounds us 
We are shown red light
and zebra crossing point
But we are told to go, it is safe
Another place we see green light
but the guide tells us to relax
as it is dangerous to go
because vehicles are crossing

Get inspired with truth
stand up-right and talk frankly
say some bosses in high offices
walk upside-down while in work
that evening cross not streets alone
because you are wrong forever

Men of God sometimes kneel
before their Excellencies in power
and ask God to bless them quickly
and open widely gates of heaven
after being shown four-wheel drive!

Men of God talk what men of power
want to hear and but keep quite
when they  go wrong
This is Africa, the land of upside-down

The ordinary man comes to church
with holes in the trousers
but is asked to leave the seat 
for men and women of power and wealth!
Yet before God all are equal!
But remember this is Africa. 
The land of upside-down

The Shop of Political Dolls and Our Idiosincrazy

(from novel  “Elinor Rigby”)
 
Why we have loved England?
Not for the Hide park,
ancient castles
and first class evergreen grasses and pastures,
not for Big Ben, Beatles music and other luxurious,
but for the awkward “puppet theatre”
gamed right on the centre of London, 
that horrible and hellish  perfomanses
where deformed bodies and figures
of famous politics, majors, prime–ministers
queen members and other up-to-date authorities.
shown as personages of harshly sardonic drama.

That popular and profitable  business 
in Albion – creating and selling monstrous shapes of theirs excellencies
on the open exhibition,


so sharply contrasted with our own preferences
and quite other way of arts perfomanses 
practising by our narrow  minded artists
deformed sculptors, wicked painters,
enslaved writers and other arts dicreators
survived by creating innumerous golden statures
of our “purest” top governors, “idyllic”  leaders,
“angel like” thefts, cleptocraties
and others political idolatories
from our autoritarian idiosincrazy.
