Premium Member Colonized a Thousand Worlds

Who says
Our brains
Ever stop growing
Who says we haven’t 
Colonized a thousand worlds
Yet they keep us here
Like slaves

A Dead Nation

Oh what a nation
A den of fools
A tribal cage 
A religious hell

The dead conscience 
The bewitched minds
The colonized culture
The enslaved souls

Oh what a nation 
Africa my poor nation
A land of disunity 
Void of humanity

Come, My Sons

We have been coaxed by honeyed words,
Deranged by colonized thoughts, my sons.
Our sinews have furnished their bans
While we are submerged in poverty’s fangs.

You hold to each others’ throat
Nourished with daggers from intruders’ moats. 
Is this how you want My bloodline to end?

Freedom

I colonize to unite, they colonize to divide
It is time to return the union of the archipelago
To unite the community through dinar and dirham
The colonizers colonized our homeland
Through divide-and-rule tactics at hand 
To colonize the colonizers should be done
Through unite-and-rule tactics must become 
I love you freedom!

Every Woman Is a Culprit

Every woman is a culprit
notorious they are in acts

Look at their being in place;
hair roasted or painted
finger nails denied self-worth
eye lashes pruned or replaced
lips imprisoned behind colors
ears brutally holding metals
men’s clothing colonized
under clothing castrated

Every woman is a culprit
all must be investigated for
crimes against their bodies


Premium Member The Rape of Palestine

The Europeans colonized
middle earth and Africa
as their God given right
America built on the labour
of African slaves
Indigenous killed
murdered, and slaughtered
then laughed at
some of you still live in this world
others though, through the eyes of history
have admitted
if not confessed, the evil deeds
now you see children burned alive
in hospital tents, on purpose
and for that
they are your new enemy

Premium Member Bells of Saint Mary's

When I've seen all the seven wonders,
And sailed beyond rainbow’s end.
When I’ve crossed the lost horizon
And discover Nirvana, again.
When I’ve conquered El Dorado.
When I reign in Shangri-La.
When I’ve colonized Utopia,
And claim hegemony in Oz.
When I’ve slain these restless demons
That give chase to the sun and the moon,
I’ll be back where I started, a pilgrim come home,
With the bells of Saint Mary’s chiming at noon.

A Day of Thanksgiving

A
day of
Thanksgiving
and holiday
is celebrated
and observed on the fourth
Thursday of November in
the United States to honor
the Pilgrims, who colonized Plymouth,
Massachusetts in sixteen twenty-one.
                             ***

   Note: Thanksgiving Day became a federal holiday in 1863 during the presidency of Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865), the 16th POTUS who served from 1861 until his assassination in 1865.

A Healthy Kenyan Ego Poem

A huge ego breaks off love’s embrace,
A tiny ego slips off love’s embrace,
No ego, no embrace of love!

A selfless ego suffocates from love’s embrace,
A selfish ego wards off love’s embrace,
No ego, no embrace of love!

A super-visual ego overshadows love’s embrace,
A deep-seated ego is colonized by love’s embrace,
No ego, no embrace of love!

A healthy ego humbly looks above,
A healthy ego can lead and also serve...

Its nerves know not pressured blood,
But developing it is almost hard!
