The Rhyme Advancer With the Answers
Poetry Soup, The foundation where I’m planting my roots,
Lassoed by a rope that’s never loose,
Always bringing me back,
I’m here, ready with no fear, high jacking minds causing post traumatic panic attacks,
Ya no match for...

Power Mad Unlikeable Sad
Trekking every which way
mentally mapping at pace
to escape this place
captured for an age
with its rotten decay
compacted waste
attacking my taste
lack hunger stray
overwhelm left spaced
all sense misplaced
isolated and crazed
now a familiar place
thinking...

Crying After My Horse Bolted
Disaster knell, disaster bell, disaster cell
Fly into my matrimony faster
When in a short time spell
I choose to plunge my home into a cluster
Where nonsense and indifference
Grow a foothold
Steeped in a circumference which in one insane...

Meek Manners and Bold Banners
Droves and groves of darkness driven in rickshaws of dissipation
Shake to their foundation heaps and drips of innocence
Grown in salient steps in anticipation
That progress pricks open wounds of imbalance
Weighed against flares of care cultivated
In travails...

Small Minds, Average Minds, Great Minds
Small minds people’s frailties deride
Drawing comfort and report
Although average minds decide
Events to discuss in their effort
To imitate great minds
Who ideas and ideals discuss
Upfront and behind blinds
Where they fuss
On humankind greatness
Buried into ideas
Whose robustness
Fears
Nothing as they...

Lingering will it be in our memories
As we memorise the memorable
Memoir of the memorial
Of Dele Giwa
A letter engraved in a Bomb
Plucked away our prolific
And dogged pen pusher
Dele, A News Watcher
Became a...

I do not know?
Ejected, Evicted, Unprotected and Uninvited
Expectations unmet
In love that shone light
On hopes unfelt
Strode astride in flight
To Cupid’s abode
Where love smote
A heart that rode
A hurdle whose coat
Sought to suppress
An impression within an operation
Meant to address stress
Felt so keenly affection
Crept, wept and...

Harder To Take Bush From Salman
Easier from a bush to take a man
Than from a man to take the bush
Cos bush sinks DNA into Salman
Making removal hard to push
In settings where Salman regresses to type
Despite apparent education
Acquired with much hype
With...

Flies
In the Australian summer
you’ll always have some mates,
they will ride upon your back
and then fly to your plates
at your picnic in the outdoors,
and there’ll never be a truce,
when you’re putting out the food,
and both...

My Dear Friend Robert
So many many memories
From a time so long ago
But it never seems to get easier
And I really wanted you to know
We did everything together
My best friend was right next door
Always...

Whimsicality
She had a face like a fish fryer's basket,
All stressed and creased and lined
His like a bag of old spanners
Abused, misused, misaligned.
She jumped his place in the bar queue
One Boozy...

Apology To Eliot
Let us go to certain half-desserted restaurant
Where cheese is spread on the table like an elkmilksheet
Steaks are burnt, curries are bland, puddings are mulberry mist
Let us go to certain half-deserted street
Where women come...

No Busybodies, No Romance Spanners
Hell’s bells knell if online love I accommodate
On Instagram, Twitter and Facebook
In moments driven by exhilaration to promote
A fad that’s all the rage online depending on which romance book
Tickled my fancy last weekend
When bored with...

Why You Need Me Because
You need me because
I have my own spanners,
And I am always on the lookout for loose nuts,
I also know where the best bolt holes are.
You need me because
I can be that spanner in the...

Paintbrush of Turbulence
I confess it’s better everyday.
Since you have swung your heart my way.
Rock bottom seemed to have no floor.
Then dove into the bleak abyss.
Blinded till I drowned amidst.
Light leading to the lamp-post at your door.
Step inside...

Roasted Chickens, Rusted Spanners
Africa, why are you excited so much
with roasted chicken you get each year
coming to you from foreign poultry farms
Can they lay eggs that can hatch, multiply?
Africans, why are you excited so much
with rusted spanners you...

Rod's Spanner
I have some favorite tools I use,
Whenever I ply my trade,
From the hammer in my leather pouch,
To the retractable cutting blade.
I also love the spanners I have,
One metric, the other in inch,
When...
