All That Was Sparta
Our lusty voice was in the tramp of narrow, winding,
     Scree-littered, deep-rutted roads;     
 Ravens, uttering guttural croaks, slow-wheeling above

So came the pattern they would embrace,
each spent two weeks a year at the other's place.

The Jester and the Soldier
Sitting in his broken world 
Littered with his broken dreams
Though the days and nights pass by 
They are meaningless to him
Mem'ries stream around his mind 
Battle noises fuel his screams
Jesters really taken hold

The Heinz dog and the Silky and that Precious Papillion,
A Terrier and Chihauhau-are a few that I have known.

They delegate their tails to tell-and...

Premium Member Scars Left Behind
Remembering the days of yesteryear
when family ties were held most dear,
gas lamps flickered in the back street
while most of us danced a different beat.
Tragic alleyways of smog and smut
“Live over the brush”* branded a sl*t,

She came from that special tribe of women
whose hands have six fingers each.
Fingers that appear a blur of agitation
chattering amongst themselves 
in a language I could never understand.

Pan-Africanism
Like twins, we share markers of a common history,
Civilization, and knowledge; a call for unity.
The carcasses of slavery and the slave trade
Are lost in the dust. O black water days.
Colonization has been eaten by our...

Mortal Metronome
Be-beating in my bosom like
a time bomb waiting to explode
with crimson coated copper-veins
and no deactivation code.

Fl-fleeting from my carnal coat,
the life I was bestowed at birth;
with every passing second it
diminishes in earthly worth.

Sl-sleeping unaware of...

Better Pakistan
Tears in my eyes, pain in my heart

Lost in the pathetic battle of politics
Bloodshed keeps ascending, dirty politicians
Forgotten land, hopes, and dreams
grow thinner every day. The air tastes like poison
Sectarianism...

Broken Promises

We made a lot of sweet promises
Weak foundation, broken soul
Endless days of torture and snoring

Vultures are still feasting on my body

Sonnet to the Empty Grave - a Spenserian sonnet

"I'm short

No more asking the questions "why?"
No more blaming me, myself and I.
No more leaping before I look;
No more being the one "mistook".
No more assuming what others mean;
No more lines to read between.
No more burning candles...
