Long Clamouring Poems

Spawned from the loins that 
Perpetuated the loyal serfs mongrel
Seed:-
These peoples of a conditioned and
"Resigned-To-it-all" breed.
Born into the enveloping tedium
Of interlocking days...Interwoven
With interlocking days -
Victims of stark circumstance
And vague promises unmade.
Gregariously living out their lives
When...

"The Drowning Machine"



Pulled from my mouth
a string of raw gold to build a tower
built from one understanding
a united ziggurat of words sucked
backwards played before broken mirrors
translated anti-clockwise slow speed all that babel
an alter laid down...

Part - 1.

Biding his time, as each day wrangles its hours away
his soul resting between heaven and Hade's hot fires
for wanton desires shall demand highest of life's pay
from blood flowing until care and want expires
battles...

Some place somewhere,in nowhere
Oh! come dearly wind,come to the place and everywhere
Were it not bad of you to bend and bypass us in your haste
Eternal it would be-had love been bethrothe'
To the valley,slummed with valour...

If we begin this tale from the left,
many will see the sons and daughters of tomorrow emerged.
Did God really said "let there be light"?
Or was it a planted falsehood in hearts? 
Are we really wet...

I watched the endless procession of stalwart youth, resplendent in their panoply gathered, a 
steelly passion filling resolute gait.
And I asked of them, "To what place does such noble assemblage march?"
"To the Temple of Ares,...

Is mother still alive, brother?
Is she still breathing as a woman?
Why is she in the darkness crying?
Has the power outrage gotten here?
Has the fuel scarcity made the hospital
Not to put on their clamouring Gen?
What eyes...

Belts, switches, bricks, and near misses
Broken boys starring as established men
Police whistles, leather shoes clamouring
down city  alleyways slick as a polished floor.
White clubs swing, black heads snap
against the dingy lines that hold
brick walls together. The devil...

IT WAS LONG TO STRONG
AN IMAGE IS CAGE
VERY RARE TO HEAR
A CAMEL IN THE ILLUSION
OPAQUE BY A THING OBJECT
DECLARING A TINY IMAGE
ILLUSION, VERY HEAVY
OBSERVING THE THIN OBJECT ALONE
WHAT A BIG ILLUSION!
VIEWING HUNDRED KILOMETERS
FOCAL LENGTHS OF...

The sun shall rise again but
not in our season of songs this time, 
because we are strange to it glamouring light. 
We sparkle and shine not among its  Galaxy of hope, 
an unformidable corrupt...

ISSUES OF THE HEART

For Grace Mike.

Do you remember, Grace?
Do you remember our first kiss on the altar of love?
You wrapped me in your arms and wetted my lips 
with innocent sensational emotions.
The fragment of your...

When you get to Africa,
Tell Chimamanda Adichie
That I once saw Kainene
Among the Animals in the forest of Abba
Roaming senselessly with the howling Wind.



Home skipped her in a bright flash lighted plain,
The clattering and clanging of...

Oh how very marvellous then. Synchronised shopping in a ship stream. Level out no lever in a gale. And swarm to sale rails like oversized tanks on waves of euphoric energy excursions. When waving rattles...

Today i went to Iceland
The supermarket not the place
Trying to find a short queue
Turns into a race

Elderly lady at the back
Tries to jump the queue
Those further forward voice their anger
“Hey, we were here before you”

"I quest for a return to the unappeased joys of my sweet past"- By Poet

 Quench my thirst to get back to my past
When tame pigeons of joy nested on my eaves
And I could hear...

Is your comeback a symbol of faith or vengeance
Let it be clear if to light or darkness you pay allegiance
Don't make men victims of ploys up your sleeves
Meting out on them wrath as thieves
Suffering for...

The Lie

Has this candle lit vandal come tearing its lament
To augment such weary marches of sorrow
All weeping configured the fingers of fate
To turn molded clay to the empty vessel of a soul

Heartless gold plated grinning...

Easy to entrance the sycophants watch their helpless dance their back and forth swaying and swooning, in cunnilingual somniloquence.
Droning and drooling with flattering and fawning, turgently swelling, spouting placating pleasantries, a mess of gushing adulation.

Often times when we glance at the mirror
Staring through its lens in powdered face.
We marvel, we wonder and ponder
Over the physical flesh.

O! Do you sometimes cry
Wishing you were carved from the finest of marble,
Or you...

Lady bird, lady bird, why thou sings so beautifully
When other had got their voice cracked in the noon?
Do you sing of peace or lost love?
You have bottled my heart with your adverbial voice
Tending the grains...

In the pipe of thoughts,
Something was left blocked,
It could not occur,
Long till the time clocked,
They shook and shoved,
What was stuck was thus,
Not budging it refused to behove,
It was as if motors had jammed,
And gears rankled,
It...

PALMWINE

The tapper ascends the height,
To get it from the palm sap,
The height he descends having the mysterious gift of nature,
Crystal like the caspian sea.



Grey hairs with their cups at hand,
Ready to taste the feeling of...

Bunches of sillies are attacking my brain
Trying to push the mushy stuff out
Gonna be a knock down drag 'em out affair
From the rooftops I wanna shout!

Have no idea which one I'm rooting for
Mushy stuff has...
