Come on big men of the world You that owe the power You have already had much money To move on soldiers You have already had much gold To feel stronger You have already had luxury palaces To live comfortably safer in And fields, ground, soil, trees, Rivers, lakes and seas. You have taken in everything your eyes can see to the horizon. But do you...

He doesn't cry in public- he's learned to bleed where no one looks. Where bathroom tiles keep secrets and mirrors lie just enough to keep him standing. he skips lunch again. just not hungry, he says but the hunger is real- not for food for someone to notice. for silence. his sleeves stay long, even in summer. skin whispering stories that no one ever asks to hear. because boys? boys don't break boys don't...

France… Listen!! You were once an empire — Your shadow stretching across continents, But not in love, not in light, Only in blood, only in brutality. You came not with gifts, But with guns and chains, Your hands red with conquest, Your heart void of remorse. I walked the fields of Algeria, And I saw them — Three women, Stripped of dignity, Breasts cut off by your soldiers, Their spirits...

Proverbs 18:12 “Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.” In the stillness of my senses, I hear a voice the voice – often distant, giving me its opinion when I look at the world and see, it is me that looks to be, the one I hear telling me to give into the...

This poem is featured on YouTube (The Convergence point with Dr. Ivan Edwards), bringing its words to life through spoken expression. Do not just hear—listen. Let her voice settle in your bones, not as sound, but as meaning, as truth that lingers long after words fade. When you listen, she melts into devotion. Look at her—truly see...
