Me and Me FirstThat soft-spoken Sovereign commands a big stick,

Memories of Our Memory LaneDropping my heart to the level of oceans
Once reflected living in life and memories of adore,
Your hibernation drove my seasonal moods
And mesmerized my loneliness because
You were the only hope of those days,
With wich...

A Modern Tribute To AntiquityA bit I have travelled, in the cities of this world
Each with a history – a tale that can be told
Through the lens of the roving tourist’s eye
Who often does, with some wonder, sigh
As an...

I do not know?
Into the SunsetOn nights of distress, he embraces me and states I am not his hostage.
I am beautiful and must be kidnapped.
He longed for my touched.
His characteristics enthrall.
Captivation is not fought.
We dance into the sunset as lovers.

OutsideOUTSIDE
Sun awakens from its sleep
stillness of the day uninterrupted
morning rituals call
hold to momentary pause.
The mirror speaks,
an epiphany.
Its quintessence brought forth so true
prior existence but a dream, deep unconscious.
Such queer speech proclaimed;
Othelo’s troubles yet persist

Rwanda's PainThe Belgian masters of old
gave in to the devil's wish,
offering Tutsi blood to
fill the Hutu tribal dish.
Wretched souls hacked asunder
killed in the shadow of fear,
corpses soaked in crimson blood
yet, the world shed not a tear.

A Prayer Greeting For My Poetry Soup FamilyLet this decade of 2020
Be the decade of plenty!
May we all sow seeds,
Of many good deeds,
Not for personal gains,
But to relieve the pains,
Of many human victims,
Of bad political dictums,
Provide the basic needs,
And free educational feeds,
To...

Parody of a SoldierEagerly joining the nation's martial order,
Becoming Uncle Sam's itinerant boarder,
Pledging to defend my country's border,
Against foreign malice and internal disorder.
Callously disregarding my own personal ambition,
Carelessly abandoning familial bonds and social position,
Caustically enlisting in the my...

Playing the VictimI feel deep sadness for the sullen and morose,
For their lives are wallowing in dissatisfaction
Unable to experience “The Lightness of Being,”
Aligning themselves with a disgruntled faction
Clutching tightly to every slight they’ve ever felt,
They throw verbal...

InvictumAgainst wild dogma and feathery wit,
Shall your sound idioms and wisdom
Outshine fickle folios of mortal sages;
Proving verity in its irrepressible form.
Your arresting dictums shall outshine
Obtuse hallowed tomes devoid of life,
Which erudition’s minions kissing die;
Sepulchered...
