The Jobless Bugger
Once there was a pauper whose story was never told. A man prey to conventions made so many years ago. Now he was not ignorant and others would also agree… He was just a jobless bugger with a respectable college degree. He was an artist, a scientist and a dreamer.  A thinking man a relentless schemer  In social captivity he strived...

We Are Graduates
We have graduated from many prestigious tertiary institutions, With flying colors, Competent and resourceful, But we are roaming around the streets, homeless, penniless and jobless. We have been trained, Under the scorching sun and in the rain, In skill acquisition And entrepreneurship development (SAED), But we are neglected, so we resort to crimes, And daily marched toward the docks. We have studied the Constitution...

Premium Member Sequestration
I never told anyone how my ears reverberate in a silent room. The whirring drone ever present, a conquistador of my private spaces. This is my cohabitation with an industrial generator. But I’ve graduated from the torment. My attitude detours trance-like into pockets of thought. It is either that or delirium. I never told anyone, despite incessant resounding Cochlea, despite a wanting...

Junk - Jobless Jack
Jobless Jack, a real jerk, dances a jig, He juggles, smuggles jewels in backpacks, jawbreakers, jump ropes, jelly rolls and crack. ~~Jig be up, Jack'll jiggle in the brig.~~ Junk jingles and jangles, squeals like a pig jerked and jacked from joints on his pickup routes. Amid crates of jackets, jeans, and jump suits, Jobless Jack, a real jerk, dances...
