For Layman Named Dan Kerr
For Dan Kerr, A Layman

Me they never would ordain;
Could not bare all the strain,
He had been,
In lion's den,
So a layman still will remain.

Eat a tater, alligator
Stupid smile, crocodile
See you later, Mater-Pater
After while, stinking pile.

Minotaur and Gabriel
Monitor and Gariel
Eat the layman, pretty cayman
Quite the romp, in the swamp....

The Leveler
Whatever the man layman or a king
When death puts its icy hands he turns to be nothing
Leaving behind all earthly things he goes away so far
All mingles in earth whatever we are
At last moment our hands remain just blank………….!...

The Problem
Privilege coming from the man in equality armor
Unheard of by the layman.
They say things like
“well you don’t quite understand”
And 
“this is what you need”
I am sure it’s not what I want 
But 
I don’t quite understand...

New Verse Begins
The layman will ask…
  always questioning what

The poet observes…
  always adding a why

The universe inhales
  within the difference

And with each ensuing breath,
—new verse begins

(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2016)...

A Layman Poem Piece By Piece


learn to cut life piece by piece 
don't swallow it  ,
it chokes
a tailor told me
in piece by piece
she made it a beautiful dress
the mason said
from piece by piece
he built the edifice
the panel beater chopped!
from piece by piece
he shackled it
so the farmer said
from seed by piece
he harvested it
though from 
an acre.. 
life is such a bunch
peel it in style

By Gideon Idudje

The Scientist
A different breed of human
Is the scientist, it seems,
For things beyond my ken
Compose the basis of his dreams.

While average people think about
Activities mundane
The scientist may delve inside
The pathways of the brain.

In language I can't understand,
The research gets explored;
Discoveries that knock his socks off
Leave the layman bored.

I'm grateful to the scientist
Whose pinpoint laser scope
Produces end results without which
We'd relinquish hope....
