Long Inexistence Poems

It has been so since the moment I felt your presence
Your vibes have connected to mine
As metals get stuck to magnets
As dew droplets stick on leaves
As butterflies get attracted to flowers
As Life itself is, to...

The winds lifted me up
And pushed me
Towards there
Where roads, four in all,
Diverged!

Upon each one of these
Was written on a signboard
Their destination!

One was Love, One was Faith,
One was Mundanity and one was Inexistence!

Aimless and lost in...

For my purpose in life had I always been searching
Ever since I grew up and became conscious
That humans live only to die;
That they are mere dust particles spread over 
An uncertain surface
A surface controlled by...

And if after Death decides to blow my candle out
I step up there where clouds sing
And winds laugh
There where rainbows act out powerful dance moves
There where grass grows merely for the sake of love
And dies...

Inspiration nowadays seems 
to have left or died
I feel lost and unsure, 
as misery eats me from inside.

Everything around me 
appears dull an uninviting
As if joy has departed 
to see to its own liking

My once...

Africans chose independence,
colonizers accepted their wishes
And  brought them neo-colonisation 
Which  looks like modern incarceration 
As they have limitations of rights 
Locally and internationally 
Which is opposing liberty 
And so called democracy. 

Some people of good...

Death sings its boisterous song to me
Proudly placing itself as the ruler
Of everything created by the maker
Death sings and kills me softly!

Why, unable to fall for anything else
Other than that which has been fated
For me,...

Must I confess to you my love the nature of my mortality
before we have a chance to cross the river running so wild?
Yes darling, but hurry the current is getting stronger.
Well, let me think, it...

A silencer that speaks not of itself
Waiting for the beckoning to come
It shuts its ears from speech
But listens to the heart
Where comes the enticement

You perceive it like its the enticer
You see it like it is...

I hear
A weeping quarantined widow
I peer
Through my sealed window
I fear
The unattended corpse below
A tear
Slips out in limbo  
The atmosphere 
Hurling my emotions akimbo
This year
Death’s started to winnow!

My career?
The lockdown let it go
I’m now a...

The Flamenco Dancer and The Bull

The acoustics of your snuffle
 is an absolution 
of a descending staccato 
in an E chord.
Behold, my lancing third, 
an urgency to trick you 
with my jalapeño-colored capote,
to mask the...

Never through regretting
The past can be a painful truth
My mind has walked through endings
A dead heart is the timeless proof

Walking from the weather
Into loss and loneliness
Never once to let her
Become my heart and know my...

On the outskirts
of a line comprised 
of two landscapes;
The distinction
is lost on how you've
managed to captivate me.
Afar, my pupils study
you several times over;
succeeded by dry run 
thoughts yearning
to be verbalized.
Words escape me
walking on tiptoes,
holding on...

That grip I longed for 
Decided in a second faster
Than my yearn
But was much slower to catch up
With another second
... I sank

You touched my soul
But it was too late
Now ripped from your world 
To the...

The words that rends the air everywhere is
We are in a computer age,
Well that's true but my message is 
Be life cautious.

Love everything that has life
You are trying but in other way,
You are equalizing the...
