Premium Member The Haunting Adventures of a Dirty Blonde Knight-Whacking the Kraken

There was a knight with locks that were golden 
Protecting a kingdom in threat of folding 
King and his trusting mighty duck 
Caring only for the almighty buck 
From the north 
Sharks were present for what it was worth 
Putting on stage predators telling them to go forth 
Until one day in a foggy dream 
A mariner let out a scream 
There was a gigantic Kraken
Started attacking 
With only eleven on board 
Holding things on shore 
Trying not the rip the chord 
Apparently the King’s mighty duck 
Got wind about the maritime bad luck 
Issuing a statement through a loud quack 
How the fisherman got whacked 
Upon pondering the news 
King knew what to do 
Take the singing predator out on a date 
Make them lyrical bait 
Seasoned to perfection 
No reason for a rejection 
Sending the sharks in 
From the tank where they are projected to win 
Sticking out their deadly fin 
Somewhere in the desert the knight with golden locks 
Was watching the clock 
When a peasant came by 
Noticing the golden lock good looking guy 
Walking her coyote companion 
Ran in 
To each other 
Both needing a lover 
Smiling a grin 
Knight with the golden locks was getting ready to sin 
When a quack was heard 
King’s message distributed from his trusting swimming bird 
“What do you mean Kraken is alive 
Wasn’t the sea hawks patrolling the sky 
I must go and be the 12th man 
Take a warrior stand” 
Off the knight with the golden locks went into battle 
Easy corralling the aqua monster like it was cattle 
In the end he steamed Kraken real good 
Delicious sea food 
Understood 
Glazed with special oils 
Before wrapped in foil 
Canucks placed at its side 
Decorating the meal that was worth a tasty try 
When the knight with golden locks came home 
There was a call on his phone 
From the peasant girl asking “are you all alone?” 
Meeting halfway 
Wedding ring proposing lifelong stays 
As for the Kraken 
Needed to receive backing 
Sharks and predators answered the request 
Wanting the knight with golden locks to be put to another test

Premium Member Legacy of a Shell

He paces steadily in the ash of evening
while a neck cranes to watch the darkness fall:
an armor on his back hardens amidst 
the chatter of leaves at the far end
 of a sea where danger waits.
Through a haze, a fearless turtle
stands guard against the rage of winds;
his beaded eyes cautiously
scanning predators as flowers bend 
for comfort of night’s droning hum.
Displaying an ancient legacy, he traverses
the mossy dune with shell and flippers
kneading stealthily in cunning motion…
oh, bearer of water and earth
evolves like a mystical ninja turtle
carrying the load to find a jeweled star.

Premium Member Majestic Eagle

Majestic Eagle

Imagine the sights
of an eagle's keen eyes,
gracefully gliding
through soaring blue skies.
Dominion she known
since the earliest days,
Kings of the air
even natives would praise.

Regal in nature
with confident class,
no movement unseen
should her eyes chance to pass.
A warrior hunter
with valor and grace,
no match is her prey
in the predators race.

The size of her talons
are gripping with fear,
while the smallest of sounds
can't escape from her ears.
A life like a Phoenix
amidst it's ascension, 
worthy of honor, 
respect and attention.

Her powerful wings
a sight to behold,
so fitting her castings
are polished in gold.
Sharp as a razor
her beak takes its prey.
a natural warrior's predator way.

Aside from her grandeur 
of honor and pride,
the eagle is from
whom the rest of all hide.
No match for 
her majesty, power and size,
even great owls 
find respecting her wise.

Premium Member Songbirds and Black Holes

Pray for wayward doves heading out west.
For the single parent trying to do what's best.
Did anyone ever pray for those 
with yellow stars sewn to their sunken chests.

Predators simply see goodness as softness.
Something to be prodded, poked, and diddled with.
Nibbled away 'til it becomes a black hole of mayhem and mischief.

Gift to the young a firm and gentle hand. 
The wisdom of age, how to engage
and the guts to debride out the bad.
Teach them the value of things
how to earn respect void of demand.
Keep them tight to the caring wing 
until they can discern nightmare from dream 
or a greasy, red-beaked buzzard 
from a silver songbird stream.

Bail

Bail


Walking down the street 
Jogging nor leaping 
Our hope is given a little threat
By them entrusted the essence of our being

"...Your friend" is made to be their slogan
Truly it is to romance our purse 
Even without guilt, just for their gain
Making us criminals in our house 

Relations and friends in innocence 
Are made to run from pillar to pole 
For liberty to be made in praise 
Yet obtaining from our purse is our friends' goal

Liberty is free in law
But frustration they make in making us pay
Yes, we do in ignorance of the law
Encouraging them feast on us all day

....."your friends", oh our friends 
Of what good is a parasite friend 
Incarcerating those presumed innocent? 
For the benefit of their purse

Bail
They said you're free
Yet our beloved delight in jail
Not their will but the law that fails to agree

The worse is the court
Our hope, lord and strength 
That verification must be supported with naira notes
Else, prosecutors will not make it fly

Presumption of innocence, not in their watch
Why the need for the law of bail?
That's the essence both courts and "our friends" never catch
Making the presumed innocents suffer liberation in jail 

Many households are in disarray
For the loss of loved ones to "our enemy-friends" 
Encouraging greed that persist to the gray
And the government turn unconcerned eyes

Who will save the innocent from the predators
Roaming around to be "our friends"?
As all roads blocked for a possible liberation 
Leaving us with no options for solutions 

Speak, I say speak out!!
Else "our enemies and friends" 
Will keep feeding on us being ignorants
It's the law that bail is free and all must obey it.

Mythos

The summer was lush with death,
it turned the hare into a twirling dervish,
the raccoon to a pantomime villain,
forced mice
to sing in the jaws of predators.

The woods are bare now,
trees rattle,
birds clatter twiggy wings,
briar tangles
in the bare throats of scarecrows.

October gourds glow, there serrated grins
reflected within the eyes
of late stalking cats.

Nocturnal winds sweep in,
bone corseted myths
ride upon the cracked racks
of desiccated lambs.
Petticoats hang from gristly limbs
much tattered by thorns.

By December, the skeletal woods
crunch inwards like roofless catacombs.
Reckless children are lost
in a leafless maze of fairytales.

Mothers tag the young
like puppy dogs, vaccinate them
against dismay.

Premium Member Believe It Or Not

My apartment once looked like it was decorated for halloween.
Throughout spider webs were on display easily seen, 
from every corner of every room and from beam to beam,
but these weren't props, these were the real thing.
I guess a spider got into my apartment through my air conditioner most likely,
and proceeded to procreate a lot of spider babies,
who kind of took permanent residence eventually.
Rather than exterminate, I chose to coexist with them,
and I believe that they too had sensed that I had no bad intentions.
They would freely come on to my hand and creepy crawl along my arm,
as if knowing that I wouldn't cause any of them any harm,
then I would place my hand in the direction,
of a spider web it may have likely spun,
and off they would go amongst their web's scattered debris,
of dehydrated husks of insects, but only one variety.
The prey that these eight-legged predators enjoyed the most,
was that classic uninvited guest, the common cockroach.
Prior to this whole spider invasion,
the cockroach was a major problem in my apartment,
but after the spiders moved in,
I began seeing less and less of them,
and shortly after that, there were none.
There was also an immediate decrease in the spider population.
Their prey the cockroach was no longer in abundance,
and so the spiders died out too due to lack of prey.
I haven't seen a spider or a cockroach to this very day,
but I will always be grateful to the arachnids, because they helped me,
to get my apartment roach free, completely, finally.

Believe it or not, this is a true story.

Oriental Magpie Robin

Oh Robin! I wish I could tell how much I love thee
Small fluffy and beautiful, you bestow much joy to me
Mesmerized I listen your melodic music whole day
Wagging your tail angrily, you drive predators away
Your cosy home, a hole in the trunk of flame tree
Amid flower's, wearing orange skirt, you bring glee

04.06.2021

Note : Based on real observation of Robin from my balcony. When they sit on top of flame tree flowers, it seems they are wearing orange skirt. They look very pretty in that. 
Both pictures taken from my balcony. One depicts the nest in tree trunk.

The Primordials

As the evening sun dipped in the blood-red horizon,
A gust of Silence came, whispered and then hushed
The warm air that was hastily passing the dungeon
Of thick scrub where the quivering grasses blushed.

The last flickering of Sun vanished and it was time.
Darkened, It was time for hunting and to be hunted.
The primordial cycle of hunt began in a raw chime
Of survival for the fittest. All hunt now enchanted.

Night here is so horrifying, even the Breeze dares
To sound its airy hum. Predators roam everywhere.
From the high branches, dark caves, dark soil-crater
And thick bushes, the primordial Eye of Death stares.

The Primordial creatures trample, fly, glide, clutch
With their teeth, claws, peaks soaked in the blood.
Creatures perish, new creatures emerge here in such
A world of Hunters, Hunted. All wander like cloud.

Lake Fish: Part-I

i'm tired of people asking me how many friends do i have
i'm always at loss for words
i truly cannot tell anymore what is my perception on truth is
at a point where i stand now, i truly can't recall
when was the last time i had an ally i could trust?
some people are good and they don't need to be labelled
while the bad ones always got themselves a tag
for me it used to be an honor to have many friends
but right now i truly feel alive
paradox my situation is
where i feel good to be as a single fish in the lake
i won't have any predators to worry about and will face natural death
i don't have someone who could befriend me and poison my brain
