The Festival of African Rain
...The natives have
(since the seventh month peeped
through the lean crescent eye of the moon)
worn cloaks of festivities.
They dance the rites,
squelching proudly in mud and green pools

Yet the moon caught a gaze- someone admiring it,
While others still lived in their virtual slit.
They peeped blue ray-she...

Self-discovery
...Self-discovery
I have been robbed of the joy well deserved,
The golden confidence beneath,
The inner peace.
I have been robbed of a voice, treasured
Caged, and echoing behind my rib cage.

Interview with a fetus
...she wished to know
so taking her permission
I peeped deep into her womb
to have a conversation
with a foetus therein
what I saw
with my soul’s eye

in the innermost...

...I'm in a dream,
Peeing into a stream,
A snake peeped out,
Some on its snout.
A frog close nearby,
Came out to pry,

From me it withdrew.
