They talk about not taking it too far,
when first meeting someone.
Arbitrary limits to thoughts set the bar,
setting inanities, falsehoods, to be spun.

All are so afraid of coming on too strong,
most definitely including me.
Feeling a spark...

1.   It’s not the rains so much as its
Absence that’s raining today
To feel an absence some times
Is to feel a pricking presence
Be it anything. Rain or love
Humaneness  or government planning
Their voids ...

Cage the rage you envisage
At the slightest intervention
Your mood swing fails to assuage
When folly in full bloom springs into action 

To boost the small ego that looms large
In response to the uncontrolled wrath
Your short fuse...

Traveler Without Rucksack
By Sy Roth

Aloneness, the traveler without rucksack
Beats the miles into your feet
A bare necessity for the nomad
For there are morns and sinking suns to see
In the endless desert of our lives.

The arroyo quickly...

The impetuosity of inanities
Life spills, deals and fills
In tones and zones of vanities
Raised to a crescendo on hills and bills

This tortured soul
Will not rewind
To times I...

Trapped in a facade of  impersonating flowing rain every feather dived to their unplanned...

What is it that makes you so unpleasant
Is brusqueness and lack of tact your totem,
Or, are you eaten up with anger inside
Feel you must treat everyone like a crumb?

Why are your communication skills lacking
So that...

Common sense, larger than life
Encapsulated in minds that appreciate sanity’s value
To actualize and revitalize purposes more precious than strife
As people of goodwill enable diverse dreams to come true.

Common sense, invaluable ingredient
Couched in determined discourse
To set...

It struck me pathetic,
that scores should ridcule me,
for inanities and frivolitities,
and look for sanguinity,
where there was only icy clear ash,
I had grown by numerous pricks so thick,
that nothing ever pierced inside,
and pained in any manner,

Unlike dogs
we fall apart inn chunks of darkness.
Unlike the birds
our songs are manufactured and processed.
Like lions our hearts are always hungry.

It's the black moments that add up and multiply,
light is our shade when moments go...

All said and done 
Nigeria is the giant of Africa 
Though currently lost in a maze of confusion
The giant is on a journey of self-realization
The journey of self discovery 
Shedding its skin of criminal enterprise
