The Badly Drawn Goat
The pencil now resting the image was 'testing' for the creature before him, (his badly-drawn drawin') had come out 'not right' somewhat twisted and tight.
The picture in question, it burst with suggestion, for lines that...

Ground Level Entry
"Ground Level Entry"
“She fits the bill”,
they say it
insouciantly
visions of being
carried in the beak
of a bilious pelican
where it builds
its rudimentary nest,
it uses sticks and debris
no stones, yet,
from irreverence
thrown at it
no higher...

it stuck in her beautiful mind like a beacon of flaming desire
of clouds fried by a cuckoo with an indestructible socket

Yet More Than a Brother
Moods oscillate in cadences of peaks and valleys
Music to fractious emotions on greasy dance floors
Mistimed cues of flares smouldering relationships
Angst of redundancy seethes from within as lava
Anger is camouflaged with the cloak of reticence
Ardour suffocated...

Dear Victor
Dear Victor
The day you walked in I was just ten years old and for the first time I felt the gentle butterfly flutters of a young hearts innocent attraction.

Butterflies
“Butterflies”
Sun shines its burning
star light into mirrors
reflecting upwards
captured and carried
the whispering watchers
observe poetic candour
in the fluttering wings
love molecules now
set in motion
are felt not seen
to heartbeats dancing

Waithera,My First Love
Sometimes I feel I know nothing about life
But I do know something about Kenya
I come from the gustily, hilly terrains of rural Ingavira
Where huts form bungalow sorts of flawless beauty
An ambiance of warm soothing atmosphere
And...

Beyond Real
when Animal Farm is not a feeding manual
and Clockwork Orange strikes at midnight
Dali’s time piece warps under face value
and an eagle-eyed-cuckoo flies over its nest
beneath the cover of cotton candy clouds
she relieves herself into Magritte’s...

Melancholia 1
We mere shadows seek supports
When somewhere else lie our beings
Uncared for in inarticulate shores,
By debris left of uprisings.
Before the delayed departure
Does our bliss alight for a while
On precipices. In the...

Deserving of his honorific title Datuk bestowed on men of honour...

The Wolf's Pockets
“The Wolf’s Pockets”
Virginia knows
what’s written
in the mass of a rock
the heaviness of words
not soluble
anchored to life
that does not float
A Wolf swallows Woolf whole
Hungry for something -
“other than” ;
Submerged,
what is not...

Hitching Hoochie

Seals connect with whoosh of door close
Defuses incriminating strip of lights lairy

Bottled coffee shaking, I scope...

The Atonements
There lives a woman in the West of Arira
To whom life denied the rights to live
The woman alive, but short of living
The life, like periwinkle shuts its doors
The troubles her children will inherit

A Weird Woman
she pips in fear for lateness like her peers,
hauteur cloaked with reticence,
her-boo-boo-vague, though walled around and palpable
official Narcissist disguised in rude affronts
Bravado of naughtiness in candour yet tacit
“Free me to free me”, rants in...

What I'D Like To Give You Is An Ounce of My Perfume
fragrance of yesteryears distilled from heartache and joy
mixture of entropy and cohesion scented in hopeful aroma
sweat from wanderlust of adventure
tears from emotional advancement
blood of hard work’s injuries over time
fears contained and turned into vigour

My Estranged Lover
Had time be for leisure,
The orchard's shade shall serve its purpose.
Were it be for the stretches of time -
Our loins shall melt in rhythm.
Had she be forgiven, this moment,
For despair...

ODE TO A STORYTELLER
A wise fool once confessed in candour naïve
When asked the question “what are you doing there?”
With insight deep the reply brooked no disbelief.
His words: “Everyone’s got to be somewhere”
Though we seem...

Human Predators
A submerged world of emeralds and pearls
coral, fish and snails, swarm in multicolor.
Do they choke in a plastic wrapped shore?
But why should I bother? Why should I care?
I need money for tomorrow
I need fun...

Fill Your Temple
by Michaelw1two
Heart fire is fueled by truth not lie,
thus gifts all minds serene;
permutes a consciousness confused,
result a soul of facet sheen;
perverse lapse, irresolute trait,
venal view rebuked by mien;

I'Ve Not Forgotten How You Taste
"Chidinma"
Your name is celestial like Manna!
I have not forgotten the way you taste
Nor did the flavour left my savouring mouth.
Honey is sweet,
Sugar is sweet...yet don't taste the same!
Don't ask me why
My mind have refused to...

Reinvigoration
Oftentimes I'm found to be
immersed in gloomy poetry.
Life's trials impose challenging woes;
so I suppose... No mystery!
Enthusiasm, seeking joy;
diminished, dampened by convoy,
of fiscal strife, decoupling wife,
neurodivergent girl and boy...
And friends... what friends? Dissolved by time?
Creative solace:...

Spiritual possession
Through an opal window I saw a cloud,
changing colors from blue to orange to red,
like a burning fire.
I was swept off my feet,
floating on a bridge between this world and the next.
My body no longer...
