Organic
zero-waste stream 
permaculturally designed
and cooperatively owned
farms
are no more or less Democratic-Boutique ecopolitics

Than AgriBusiness
extractive anti-ecological 
rather than restorative-ecosystemic therapy,
competitively owned
and Business as Usual capitalist-colonizing designed
multinational conglomerates of anthro-hubris greed,
are no more or less Totalitarian Universal Supremacist...

Lines more lunatic than the sun – 4

your body 
that’s fond of tv-soap

with its un-worldly moonlight 	and worldly tricks and posterings
as if  		it wants to plough
a thin winter 	that is attached firmly		with a mermaid...

Nigeria & the New Year Presidential Gift 
SILENCE

Silence! Stillness! Silence! Inaction!
All guises of an impending eruption
The only sound of merriment

I wish there could be joy in this clime
Like the pleasure...

I encounter ebbs and flows, a peaceful solace sigh.
Wedged on the cusp of a cliff to endeavor a descry.

To start with, I desire, I were a dictator
If destiny were to decide at its leisure

"Tree huggers” use AT&T
The human cost catastrophe

Pollution's still booked at no

And Earth’s expenses neatly tossed
Off the balance sheet
With a "Sprint" so complete

I sat at the exit of life,
My ears perceiving diverse trends.
Tis about the misfortune of the fortunate,
And the rebuke of the appraised:

Turmoiled state and heightened corruption;

And I do not know you
Your warm fuzzy smile dripping milk cream
Over the chocolate of my...

This your government;
Souls are slain like cockroach
During your faithful regime.

Remember,

You spoke for peace and orderliness.
But it never came to pass.

Am so tired of your decades
Of calamity and devastation.
Speak your tenure;
Death...

Hardly can it’s birth be forgotten
Driven by the Deep of the Dawn
Bewildered in past present so rotten

Wondered in dark-deep abyss
Oblivious in the trodden lines
Yet broken the mind-ark in reminisce

He is out to spread his tentacles
In the face, of combative obstacles,
And dying to end through a tackle
Any unacceptable spectacle 
Between The Rickety and The Ramshackle:
Busy roads he’d started their channels,
Hateful robbers sealing off their...
