Im happy as long as im free
so why live by admiralty?
im not on a boat
my thoughts make me float
this continent isnt a sea
they call her
the dark continent
though the sun shines
brightest on her
blue rain pours on her
every day
making nonsense
of her sun’s toil
we are birds of chaotic cities
our screams are our crowing
we have been in pain forever
our heavy-duty wheel
we are the ruins of the Lost Continent
God is love
love is puppies, kitties, babies
When we become a river of love
the continent magically changes
peace and kindness will flow
reminding us again
God is love
May we be blessed to understand
on every continent,
in every country,
city
and town…
We are put upon this Earth to lift each other up
not
to put each other down.

A people next door.
Nations for neighbours.
Closeness; that which can but rub.
Friction; sets aflame!
It is always so.
Who can avoid it?
One block, continent away
"Friends" safer to name!
All you water, please file neatly
into the ocean - I mean completely,
and if you are dirt, you are meant
to lie on a continent.
Islands and lakes, please prepare,
for your judgment, the electric chair.
The foundation of the UNO collapsed,
The Nobel trust bankrupted,
In my dreams,
Where is Mandela?
Again in dark,the continent
Invite Edison,
Where is Mandela?
Mandela gone,
Wiping the tears all in mourn!
Let everyone know
let my nation know
let my continent know
let the world know
let humankind know
let you know that Africa is a boiling volcano
let them know that this land
a sleeping heap of nothing it is not
Africa, beautiful continent
Dreamy echoes fascinate
Giraffes heighten inclines
Jurassic known linger
Madagascar nestles offshore
Primates quest reform
Savannah tribes umbilical
Visioned waves x-ray
Young zebra
Africa said that I am continent
and I said as low or to what extend?
or let think over again and again the other things
O however war and peace
by the way the english man the proof of pudding is by
eating.

whirlwind of spectacular sounds
elephants tromping through, ears flowing
continent made of diverse dialects
zebras striping the horizon with color
countries with their own flavors
Africa God's own quintessential tapestry
Cat is chasing fat rat
Cook is burning paper
My classroom is dusty
I come to school on foot
Baby is crying for milk
Mother is kneeling down
Bird is drinking dirty water
Pastor is saying prayers
I live in Africa continent
'the sun has ascendant between us,
between two pinched,
that bow to each other;
love with the sun ascendant,
has red on our orgasmic ally
stem;
we are now like a shadow, thy
set, in the same continent;
but kiss the air husbandry.
exotic continent of contradictions
remote as remote can be
where deserts and cities coexist
where I can still go safari hunting
with traditional tribes like the Maasai

My blood
leaves its determination
on earth,
crimson footsteps
effusing
on starched sleeves.
I'll have planted
a continent
of ebullient poppies,
celebrating existence
with no other mission
than expression,
however brief.
Safari buzz is near...
A continent no luxury
To domesticate its giraffes and steer-
Plows mud enclaves
As the storm leers
Yet full of good cheer
No worries-
Especially in Kenya
We're all out on loan
To the universe
Let's see what we do
AUSTRALIA
Big empty home of the kangaroo
Where all real patriots are true blue
People upside down from Alice to Perth
Hiding down there underneath the earth
Continent incapable of containment
Unlimited scope for inverted attainment
She wore her smile as wide as the horizon;
As In her heart was so cold as frozen snow;
Continent shined so all watching her all eyes in;
Bestow airglow aromatic plateau meadow;
She was a Ice Princess

Listen to poem:
How far will you fly?
Cross continent? Moonward?
Across the room?
Let me fly with you.
You won't even notice me,
On the wing,
Clinging for life (and love).
Why do you flee me,
choosing a destination
from which it will be
impossible to book
a return?
I am touched by your beauty and intelligence
I am moved by your wisdom and grace
You inspire me
You are kind and gentle
In your youth you are a leader
You are destined for greatness
One continent can not hold you
Smart, bold, and exciting
I am touched
In African continent
To build strong nation
promote nepotism
to build trusted cadres
make citizens poor
to increase loyalty
blindfold the people
not to know your tricks
then dominate them
forever nation under you
shall be stable, strong
even when it is wrong
