Neither Dumb Belle nor dumbell: The Search for Personal Identity.
Made in His image Divine, one and one equals two
The differences plain and simple in design
Does not "Woman" mean "Female Man,"
From First Man her origins taken?
Together strong and flexible
In time they find each in and as the other
Indispensible to humankind's survival
A perfect pair in God's blueprint for life
God's portrait as a dyptich,
Masterful, expressionistic, abstract and figurative
A little lower than angels, yet crowned in his glory
Strength and Kindness gifted to each one...
Yes in deed, God in plain sight of angels
made the two of them become as one-
Holy, wholly separate, inseparable, in mind, heart-
The children of His Love for Life
A vision for all to see-together his image on earth.
Together, one and one equals three

Deposited, held in Amazon's Adonis arms
Hidden inhospitably stashed, kite shadow
Curled furtive, stairway stupefied windshield
Hallucinations lag languished in amusement
Monkeys freeze, screech scamper scratch
Egg smooth roof unscathed cubby abode
Jagged gaps hang fur curtain climbing mates
Swung carefree in cramped homecamp humid
Aghast lopped log rest exhales raggedly
Snapped propeller askew salutes defeat
Wing bent lungs transform fortitude into fuel
Crushed accordion bodied anaconda swivels
Lock jaw latch tight to jungle gym frame
Liquid flow flanks scale, giant slug glued
Fork tongue tastes rain drip following day hope
Fangs prong Coconas sour tomato gold codicil
Cluster juice burst berries, bittersweet bulbs
Knobs of Contreu twisted tangerine vitamin
Fibre feeds faith indispensible, thin torsos entwined
Fight against forbode of abandonment, exhausted

April rain
free spirited
indispensible
edges the earth to green
its spiritual purpose of growth
spring rain
gentle
thoughtfully falling
trekking rivlets like strands of hair
ending winter's self containment
covering bud blooms
pushing tulips, hyacinths to a drooping weight
to ease woes rigid like pine cones
when spring brims over with endurance
when rain lifts
as the rapid radiance of sun
slips on laurels of promise
to fortify us
emerging
like an armed scent of freedom

coughing up my lung and my stomach
a Mack truck must have run over me last night
I crawl into work anyway thinking I am indispensible
the boss almost immediately sends me home
don't come back until you are well she says
glad she is my boss

MY DRIVER
I rain from the sky amidst saints who are priceless
My paradise was wooed by a womb man
The driver of my journey to this warm place with surface
Without anxiety i considered to my joy
For her pride is not only new experience from another haven
But also have a property to call my dividend
This juliana from the 7th heaven
My personal pride
My under rated fortress
My indispensible
My representation of god
My motivation to hanging on
My loyal fan from embryo to testimony
My reason to be happy always
My little camp of knowledge
My consistent value maker
The heart i carry evermore
A story i cannot tell enough
A many reason to continue God pronouncements
The why i will always push
MY OWN FIRST LOVE
IYA TOSIN IS MY MOTHER

A Victoria in the garden of impeccability
Juliana from the clouds above the sky
I look afar for a merry band of winners
Be a legacy to awaiting offspring i plea
Our reason for seeing the beautiful lost eden again you are
Lancelot in vessel of support i know
Alas, you are a poetry worth writing again
On this road come a travelogue
Nurturing the faith of believing
Who will pay for this dialogue
Unprecedently i trance so high to ink this far
Cheering at the airport is near for you
Home coming a pleasure you will welcome
Eager we are for you to arrive sooner
Knowing that you are indispensible to this habitat
Walk down the challenges in strength
Another hero we have discovered in YOU.

After the evolution of fire,
Man’s wise discovery for survival
Was the indispensible culture
Of raising crops.
It came through their ancestors,
They created fields of happiness.
Albeit accurate in their perspective of culture,
They were unaware of the modern complications,
But they believed their culture and worshiped it.
The men were a collision of knowledge and tradition.
The emergence of modern period has viewed agriculture
as an economic activity.
But the men had become an inspiration for the youth.
Their hard work has served the nation enormously.
But the country left them with no land
And dearth of them is the worst.
Their successful revolutions had led to victory,
History holds their strive,
As long as we realise their importance,
We would thrive!

Teacher is indispensible in this world,
Without whom the students are not properly nurtured.
One day when a teacher in a Gurukul went away,
Giving the charge to one of his meritorious flay.
He ought to maintain all the decorum,
Without which the Gurukul is lost in a drum.
His senior mates were even jealous from his name,
Because of his progress in receiving the fame.
Once a day while there developed a quarrel
On one side were the seniors,
While on the other side was their leader.
The leader was very mature by intellect,
Tried all the hooks and kerns by negotiating for the sect.
But however the seniors didn’t hear him at all,
And tried to hit him after making him fall.
Suddenly arrived the teacher on the spot,
Because he had an intuition of something wrong.
He immediately expelled the garbage of Gurukul,
And tried to make the situation over there cool.
By this, it’s clearly transparent
That the teacher student relationship is subject to reticence,
Because it’s the most unique relationship in the universe.
Respect your teacher
And get what you desire.

Extinguish all lights of the world
dark will prevail everywhere.
Can you extinguish dark ?
If so, what will prevail then ?
Kill or destroy all men
from this earth’s crust
you will see no difference
the earth will exist
the air will blow
the water will flow.
But, will the earth exist sans woman ?
Mother, sister, wife, daughter :
A woman has many faces, many shapes.
She is incarnation of three earthly elements :
Love, affection and compassion.
Her love makes your life
Luxurious, ease and enjoyable.
When she waves the tip of her saree
heaps of affection trickle down
as flowers of eternal bliss.
Every moment you dive
into the ever flowing river
of her compassion,
you feel the touch of water.
Woman is the beautiful creation of God
worship her with flowers of your heart.
Woman is the delightful dream of nature
bring her dreams into reality
with your love and care.
Woman is the epithet of this earth
nourish her with faith and belief.
Woman is an indispensible assets of life
keep her in the hidden treasure of your heart.

It's now time we forgive
the trespasses of our neighbours
who in the course of wellbeing searching
showered them like a storm on us.
It is time we stretch them a hand
humbly giving love without reserve;
smilingly and joyously too.
It's time we accept,
that jealousy and hatred;
they have no place in our midst.
It's time we accept
that man no matter his colour
Tribe, ethnicity, and rang
is indispensible to his fellow.
It's now time we bury our pride,
the spring board of our hatches,
Stretch our hands to all;
and give like a new meaning.

There are possibilities of restoration,mutual love,sanctity and redemption__
Amidst disputes,desperation,infidelity,incest and violence.
Even though,we are torn apart by irreconciliable differences__
Grace and forgiveness has become indispensible for each other!

You think you are an important employee
You think to yourself “they can’t replace me”
Indispensability is in your frame of mind
Always on hand, one of the reliable kind
You never take vacations your work is your life
You work every weekend no time for a wife
There is more to life than work, no don’t scoff
Work is a means to an end, take some time off
You may think you are indispensible but you’re not
You think your contribution will never be forgot
But the thing that you will find most incredible
Is that the graveyard is full of the indispensible
