In cosmopolitan artificiality 
he orchestrated ways and means for excited culls
Initiated to ensure free world buoyancy 
To prevent corruption by power hungry moguls

obviously 
cosmopolitan,
our new neighbors

sparkle 
in their fashion,
frills, tones and bones,

and their 
shampooed dogs,
vain about their pedigree,

deface our
freshly-painted walls,
foul our fragrant  walkways,

loiter 
around , litter our alleys, 
with cosmopolite impunity....

I create beauty while I support
 everyone and me...
I am universal and 
cosmopolitan being
my own owner...
I love humanity
and I love life...
I am a tamer of my
inner beast and peacemaker
of this bellicose world.
Advisor of what
nothing conceive... but
my magic, is
 write poetry... !...

Cosmopolitan look of this CEO
Perfectly carved in a ratio

Suit dark suits him much
He rocks in all seasons such

Hailing from Guntur chilli region
Bay of Bengal being his swimming station

Blessed with two teenaged gals
Fortunate to have princesses and pals

May his birthday fetch him success
With peace prolific and royal riches..!...

Cosmopolitan it may seem
Humanity bursting at the seam
Diverse colours, almost obscene
All are heard, none are seen

Uniformity in diversity
Chaos in serenity
Ugliness doing beautifully
Still a village disguised as a city

Myriad and diversified
Complex and haughty
Confident, ununified
Of adulation, always worthy

Edo!
My land forever o!
Oba gha to kpe e

How familiar but hazy this barn, 
with taints of everything I'd known, 
or felt I knew --- 
my modern lifestyle 
had been too cosmopolitan, false -
Sunset glimmered on the rusty sills,
yet the comfort  grew warmer
and I was finally
in an abode I belonged,
the smell of baked potatoes
drifting on--
where time walked these shoes
back in grandparents' halls.

The Urban Fox has come to town … 
Back gardens now he roams.

Away from fools in scarlet coats,
He’s feeling right at home!






(Here in England, fox-hunters wear red - or "pink!" coats and chase the fox on horses, with a 
pack of hounds. Hunting with hounds is now illegal, but most of the foxes have moved away 
from the country into the towns. They love McDonald's ...)

Cosmopolitan is a man about Town....

Oh Mary dear honey, My sweet little beehive loving you as you carry our baby. whose mind is linked with frog-eyed spirits from within the smoldering sun. In this sheltered home in a land of mystique a cosmopolitan all hands concomitantly together a wall of hands and people guided by their ministrant of possibility. So sing with me darling no not I sing with us for us is me and I is us we all nestle upon our bridge that we set to take....

An ephemeral
loyalty of unity
divides faded pride.

Cosmopolitan
this block upon block monument
shaded by white clouds
enclaved in stains switched
mundane tirades to acclaim
that spades lisp sunk hate.

To the fortunate
the philosophies that form
the thesis relics speak.

A purge that caused the turn
Decades of archivists exhibit it 
The berth...the crane it built
Canada's concrete that finished it.

12 Floors of Revolution...

Yes, I realize Paris is just
          magic when night falls...
          Vienna is a mysterious dream
           in the obscure night...
          New York city is  multiculturalism. !
          Rio is wonderful
          in light or dark...
          But my place is
          prettier anytime!
          I love people
           from all over the world...
           I'm frankly
           cosmopolitan...
          But above all,
          I'm movingly
          Paraiba... !...
