Not If I Should See You First

a good axe, a fine form and a full house

  can you dig this scene of clockwork clowns?

    little hierarchies 'mongst the mediocre

 I'm all too often hit when this stuff comes down

        watch that river running in reverse

 you will not see me, not if I should see you first
 
                            -

  the brothel basement, walled in, tortured soul

      blind to beauty from pillar to post

sings like a cowboy, never once saw a horse

'standing in what looks like bordelaise sauce

should you think that it could get no worse

  you don't phase me, not in any universe

                               -

         walk barefoot n' I've  got dirty feet

                 like any sailor far away from sea
        
                               -

  with a little love, what is there to lose?

      no one going nowhere no time soon

    inane skeletons, all poised for conquest

     n' falling nothing short of the burlesque

         over-hyped, deluded amateurs 

we'll step outside, I'll take anything that hurts

                                -

            watching the river run in reverse

         you will not see me, not if I should see you first

Sense coming night


Apt as a plot
Fill in sweet thoughts


Apt life for two
Just me and you

A School Glorified

Six years on foot
Through far and hurdling paths like wilderness
My secondary learning root
Which taught me to taste and endure bitterness
Oh my brain of rational thoughts:
In the mornings it felt cold but fresh
And in the noons hot but full of competence
Yet I in wisdom remained afresh.

My shirt white was not as it was
The trousers blue-black could hardly its colour survive
Of them were made other fashions
And the prescribed white shoes to serve—
Pedestrianizing both on rocky roads and tars,
Loosing its first fine form gradually—
I should always to say thanks and sorry.
We Trinitarians were a mere picture of the colonial missionaries.


In school we lunched our books
As we were often empty-in-pocket:
We would go hungry and return angry
Battled we with school's ups and downs
Nothing to better to eat
But either drank groceries,
Or fill our stomachs with water from the bloody tap
Those days were best but not happiest to us.


The school Holy Trinity would never be the weak's
For only the strongest could survive;
Some would exit or fall out
It'd always be the best
Entity of extreme excellence
All boys sound and brimmed!
Catapult of coiling character
All boys virtuous and righteous!
Today, we are proud alumni
Eligible to rendering to our country services
To prove that we did learn from the school.

Premium Member Anthem

Now in sure time watch space greet fate,
Ask for bold zest to brave each fear;
Touch moves deep chimes here at the gate,
Instruct the best to dare endear;
One by one see your cherished lot,
Note how time jerks life's challenge grand
Aim thus to be working your thoughts,
Love ever works purpose and trend.
Align sure heart with mindful grace,
Nurture fine form as substance moves;
Thrill in fond art bold highs you trace,
Hurl thus clear norms that fit new grooves;
Enter and be what passion grows,
Merge with love's sea as vision shows.

(Dedication: For my loving family)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Joy fills my heart
Let love now start


Peace of mind floods
Sense pulse of blood


Live with fond zest
Bold wit, clear jest


Faith knows the way
Hope fills each day


Love sculpts fine form
Zeal spans wise norm


Deed springs grand flow
Grace works sure glow


Look close and see
Truth feeds beauty


Time heals all pain
Primes all I gain


Here is a place
Now fields the trace


Poise wears a voice
Love echoes choice


See beyond things
Glimpse what life brings

Premium Member The Night's Alive and A-Shiver

~ The night's alive and a-shiver ~


  The moon's a sliver
  a hammock without strings
  a pale banana with wings
  The night's alive and a-shiver 

  Just you and me on a musical spree
  hitting the clubs, dancing up a storm
  sleek in our costumes, displaying fine form 
  Doing the splits cross the floor, spread-kneed

  The hour grows late, but what do we care
  feeling boundless energy nearly exploding
  at midnight we drink a toast to re-loading
  Ahead of us lay new and brave dares

  Tick-tock, one o'clock; it is already two
  Our hearts are still young, but our feat feel weary
  We retreat to a corner, vision somewhat bleary
  So we sing Auld Lang Syne and down a few...

  Brrrrrriiiing goes the alarm. 6 am.  Can it be?
  Time to shake a leg, get out ahead of the day
  The music and dancing yet whirling in our heads
  We turn off the blinking alarm, and go back to bed

In your calm sight
I see the light
Shine very bright
In feel most right


In your fine soul
I come to know
A poignant whole
That ever shows


In your embrace
I know kind grace
Now face to face
In time and space


In your love grand
I find blessing
A lover friend
A glimpse thrilling


In your sure light
I find my way
To precious sights
Each brand new day


In your kind eyes
My world now rooms
With happy sighs
And floral blooms


In your sure way
Home and heart glows
Fond cheer that plays 
A mystic show


In your fine form
Love comes to call
In sublime norms
Despite life's gall


In start and end
We come around
With hearts that blend
In timeless grounds
