Hope is light gathering in silence until it crystallizes. quote by poetess
Granddad’s Selectric waited in dusty silence, keeping the memory of words he did materialize.
Its keys once polished, now dulled by years, still guard the faith he refused to minimize.
As a child I listened beneath his desk, hearing letters lift like prayers my muse did recognize.
His hands moved with a pianist’s grace, shaping truth into lines no shadow could incise.
After he passed, I carried it attic-ward, a quiet procession where my childhood dream did die.
Each summer I climbed the attic ladder, dreaming of stories my imagination did fertilize.
Many years later I returned, the ladder moaning, heavy with mothballs, regret, and forgotten ties.
My flashlight found its silhouette waiting, a ghost-bright outline time could not neutralize.
I lifted the cover, hands on home keys, its faded letters whispering ‘don’t compromise.’
Something in me stirred awake, a long-kept dream beginning softly to rise.
The first keystroke jammed, the second struck true, ink warming and with hope did energize.
By the third paragraph, words unfurled through me, swift as breath my soul itself supplies.
I felt the years fall back like dust, as if the attic air had chosen me to baptiize.
that part of me that once believed in stories before fear taught my voice to downsize.
And in that hush I sensed a truth returning, an axiom no silence could disenfranchise:
In truth, hope patiently endures waiting for courage to mobilize.
Gifts we bury still remember us, calling softly for us, our dreams to reprise.
Even dust lit dreams can bloom when the heart dares to visualize.
Every story waits for its moment, every calling waits to revitalize.
Until at last, in the quiet glow, I let my long-kept hope fully crystallize.

The long and tortuous road that
You travelled which brought you here
Explains the position you are at
And influences your hopes and fears.
Sometimes you travelled in circles,
Sometimes you followed straight paths,
Sometimes you went in a semicircle
Before returning to life’s long path.
But whatever has happened to you,
Remember that you affected your fate
When you decided your dreams could never come true;
Then started living the life you hate.
So, maybe it is time for you to decide
To break free from fate’s whirlpool and stop
Being the person you yourself deride
Knowing in your soul that you are not.
It may not be too late for you to be
The person that you should have been.
Maybe now is the time for you to free
The ghosts of your dreams trapped within.
So, mobilize creativity that you’ve neglected,
And plan your life forward from here.
Because life is too precious to be wasted,
And time has become too dear.
We're born keyless.
Then given plastic keys to play with.
We earn our first key of responsibility.
To mobilize-to enter things.
To cage things-to abuse things.
Like a warden with a cluster of keys
letting the good out- keeping the bad ones in
or is it the other way around?
A steady stream of keys.
Like a bird-every key sings
,, especially the skeleton key.
Only a few keys are able to keep your secrets.
Eventually there is a chorus of keys
Most of mine(secrets) are silver or gold
Some are dirty, some are clean.
Only one of them is king
but none of them are green
We often lose them
Then a mad search commences,
Like a red-eyed druggie rooting for a quick fix,
We smile in relief when we find them,
Hugging them as if they were our children.
Keys grow old, become battered and bent
Some wriggle off the ring.
Every year we have fewer keys.
Keys are a lot like friends,
What a relief it must be to be keyless again.
In annals of history this has happened many times
Against masses men in power have done many crimes
Sufferers lament over it as they struggle every day
If they unite and fight better future before them lay
Huge population against few men in power
Common man can easily beat they have greater manpower
Next time don't just sit and blame
A revolution of masses set aflame
Modern means of telecom are at your feet
Take up leadership, you can achieve great feat
Fight against wrong for the good of all
If you mobilize masses, on your feet victory will fall.

First position in Brain strand competition
On the imaginary side of my brain, there's a picture of a copper coin. One side of this coin is about nothing, does nothing, and will never become anything more than it already is. Even if in a mobilized state, it will invariably remain in a straight line. Let's call it 'tails'. The 'tails' side will remain in a nothing state. It will never change in value nor usefulness. The other side of this coin is about something. Let's call it 'heads'. It will activate or mobilize only if some foreign force interacts with it. Moreover, the 'heads' side has the capability of being spent for something in exchange, increasing in value, or being utilized for various purposes, simply because it can interact and become sensitive to other entities. By definition, both sides would be 'inertia'. Perhaps you and I have met both types of people. That is, 'heads' people(the changeable) and 'tails' people(the unchangeable).

Battle cries circling through the air
Civil Rights alert and Caution
Speak out wrong and make right
Eyes of the world standing and being counted
Dr. Martin Luther King stood strong and determined, and made a mark on Civil Rights history back then
It’s time to make our history in the making being now and continuous
We must walk through the forbidden waters
Not eat the forbidden fruit that wants to destroy
The need to mobilize and bring Civil Rights another surprise
The journey and atmosphere in Dr. Kings honor
Footprints left as a floorplan track
Our time to rise up
Legacy echoes
Brothers and Sisters don’t be still
There is work in civil rights to fulfill
Breakthroughs unto will
Dr. King being our pinnacle of strength
Breaking barriers at every length
Distance showing no stop
Horizon in observation in what is to come
Agenda full of courage and determination towards victory
Dr. King’s story speaks for itself in action fact
There is a need of a new chapter that couldn’t be finished by Dr. King
There was never no conclusion, but a fight that relishes on
We can’t settle and be silent
Surrendering is not an option
Multiple eyes on the civil rights principle
Rise up and not give up
Freedom our liberty
Change our reality
Unity our togetherness
Battle cries echoes
The Mountains hear and respond
Brothers and Sisters we are the solid ground for which we stand
“WE THE PEOPLE”
Ingredients of Character
Does envy in disguise exist there?
Boastfulness? Pride?
Do they sell the innocent for silver
And the needy for a pair of sandals?
Ingredients o Character
The proud and ungrateful who denied
The oppressed justice.
Lovers of pleasure and self, the swift
will not escape one's overpowering
Anyone will not mobilize their strength
And encouragement will bear the same
Attitude and mind towards each other.
Ingredients of Character
Disobedience: do they not know how
To do what's right?
Ingredients of Character
One's growth of one's expectations, beliefs,
Persistence, affection, and love will be tried
And tested.
Ingredients of Character
Let lines be drawn
Beyond my nerves
Make it unclear to the deaf-blind
This journey of slavery
And undue enrichment
This society and nature
Have yoked us with.
Should I, should I not
Is the daily soliloquy
Of a pregnant Fela Kuti
Lest its made gone
Like the matriarch of the Kuti family.
Oh! silence is made a baton for political ambition
Watching the righteous go to rest
In an inglorious cave and
Enriching our common foes in their nests.
Let me cry
Please don't hold me back.
Where is righteousness,
The rule of law,
Fairness, and justice
A victim of theft
Must mobilize our black friends prior investigation
While one with no guilt must pay prior release.
What a society where truth is hidden
With massive celebration of falsehood
Let me groan without holding back
Our wives are becoming widows
And children fatherless
Yet a mouth to voice out
Is silent for fear of death or ambition.
Where is a place of refuge?
The house of God?
Donate your way to remission, the message 'from God' is.
The Judiciary?
There, the cause list is bigger than the court.
The two be the last hope of the masses
But fail to scratch our backs.
We need help
Yes, one which is based on collective decisions.
Arise oh compatriots
The next generation is calling
Please and please obey
In order to have a better generation.

Monster clouds roam with fiery open jaws
Memories of past freeze momentary pause
Storming tides advance with fiery rainfall
Followed by sounds of a shattering landfall.
Spirits resolve as gusty winds blow roof top
Families will soon rise to clean up and mop
Determined as ever to mobilize and survive
Hoping to keep remnants of memories alive.
Leaving behind the dread of storm unbidden
Lifting up each time such grief has stricken
Moving swiftly hoping for a construction loan
Dredging through an atrocious disaster zone.
Such repetitious blows becoming annual thing
Calling for prayers, God's heavenly blessing
Flying high with spirits on the Angel's wings
For the love and hope they continually bring.
Having heard cries of compassionate calls
Resounding like the magnificent Angel Falls
With unbroken resolve our nation stands tall
Shattered lives rebuild hearing the protocol.

If we want a great nation, we have to change it ourselves.
To survive in peace and harmony, united and strong, we must have one people, one nation, one flag.
My message to you all is of hope, courage and confidence. Let us mobilize all our resources in a systematic and organized way and tackle the grave issues that confront us with grim determination and discipline worthy of a great nation.
A battle lost or won is easily described, understood, and appreciated, but the moral growth of a great nation requires reflection, as well as observation, to appreciate it.
A nation whose youth are endowed
with self as strong and hard as steel .
No need of piercing swords in war,
such people brave can ever feel.
The world of Pleaders and the Moon,
By natural laws is chained and bound .
whereas the world in which you dwell,
Owns insight, will and mind much sound.
what do the quivering waves imply,
save enormous zeal and zest for quest?
what lies concealed in mother shell
is a Gift of God who knows it best.
The hawk is never tired of flight,
Does not drop gasping on the ground :
If unwearied it remains one wings,
From hunters' dread is safe and sound.
I always like to look on the optimistic side of life, but I am realistic enough to know that life is a complex matter.
My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.
Life doesn’t require that we be the best, only that we try our best.
