Human hungry the store house,
Grave of many lives!

Washing clothes,
           is to proffer them joy...
           It is the jubilee of the body that
           dresses with them,
           is to please the spirit
           that covers us...!...

Tell me your secrets
I’ll tell you a lie

Bid me good tidings
I’ll bid you goodbye

Proffer me kindness
my heart a deaf ear

Timeless your offer
—whose moment I fear

Poetry fails
when forced to explain

A dead-end street
with little to gain

Stripped of meaning,
one proffer to name

Magic and wonder
dead,
self-proclaimed

Religions survive
  through subjugation

Without it,
  they are lost

Wielding guilt as a weapon,
  they proffer salvation

Enlightenment and freedom
  —their cost

To drink
from my well
you
first must believe
Each cup 
that I proffer 
permission
received
The fuller
your bucket
the stronger
your vow
Each word
that you ladle 
rebaptized
— aloud

Walking
Tenebrous road
Sinister entity
Appeared as a mist in the dark
Offering fame in exchange for the soul

Black dressed woman escaped swiftly 
Run away from unknown 
Fainting when found

What there is to offer a help,
and proffer a  profile (drugs) and solutions,

that if men and women left this way,
still offer to relocate...?....

How did we pray to God today
Did we ask or offer
Was our connect in childlike play 
What thoughts did we proffer

As we outpour intent
With loving sentiment 
We ensure soul’s ascent

Hark donkeys bray
How did we pray

The naked truth, will proffer no ruth..Its light is fit to
Blind you
Should you delve? where, most never do; or dare? its blast
Will outline you.'
So of what I do, either ask me true? And i will not not
Deny you.'
I'll chew the fat, if you're up for that? And lets place mans
Fears behind us.!...

Many offers
Praising their dollar seeking way
Hungry to publish my poems
Establish my talent,

Mail us your order
Send your check
And forever remain 
The fool....

I stood gazing, amid the garden's glow,
at cherubic hues of peach and zaffre 
subtly bubbling around the fountain's flow.
I stood gazing, amid the garden's glow,
at this! The Maker's restorative show, 
His blessing of the beauty to proffer.
I stood gazing, amid the garden's glow,
at cherubic hues of peach and zaffre....

finding the invisible

every one is a galaxy
look into their eyes
through the fog of fear
and confusion with unknown
things like meeting

there is disbelief 
in an outstretched hand 
pain in the touch of greeting

gently persistent proffer
kindness, in a celestial glow
hear, “How did you find me?”
“How did you know,
I was here.”...

If
Rubik's 
Cube was round
I'd still be lost.
Give me a manual that bares the code,
and I will work like crazy to succeed. . .

puzzles 
Rubik's Cube
or Rubik's Globe
require more skill than I can proffer, just
give me a manual that bares the code.

Running

I wrestled with darkness, searching for light,
Having worldly things housed in my coffer.
At next cockcrow became my last flight,
My broken heart was all I had to proffer.

Then all at once a conversion came about,
I began to weep and didn’t understand.
But immediately knew I wouldn’t bail out,
My heart was stirred by God’s loving hand.

A dream is simply a story
It has neither a beginning, nor an end
It starts in the middle and ends where it began
Like all stories, it paints a picture
Some pictures are in charcoal, others are embossed
But they all proffer an image, in the minds’ eye
An eye which may not see clearly
But it is a vision nonetheless
A vision of grandeur, a vision of love or 
Simply a vision of nonsense...

Converging clouds morph
into mesmerizing shapes
then reconfigure.
Pleas I proffer sail through clouds
chaos and Covid to God.

As our nation turns a year older
let's lend our hands and shoulders
to lift Nigeria higher than it is
and proffer a solution to its incurable disease;

In unison let's say no to corruption
and yes to halal consumption.
Let's pray for God's mercies and blessings
and from our mistakes let's draw lessons;

I love you Nigeria, the pride of the continent
I send you my warm compliment.

The cycle of existence
will demand with great insistence
that you offer no resistance 
as you proffer up your soul.

If you lose sight of the notion
it’s the gyroscopic motion
working like a magic potion,
then you’ll have to pay the toll.

Though your life hangs in the balance,
using toes that grip like talons,
with some practice and some talent
you’ll find the joy as you employ the unicycle roll....

YOU ARE HIRED
        AS
DESTINATION CONVENER
IN YOU WE RELY
IN YOU WE AMUSE
IN YOU WE WERE COMFORTABLE
BUT YOU ARE CORRUPT
BY THE HEADS
THAT MAKE YOU MOVE
NOW YOU METAMORPHOSED 
FROM FLYING DOMICILIARY
TO A FLYING COFFIN
HUMAN HAS INFECTED YOU
        WITH HIS
INCURABLE EPIDEMIC
EVEN HE  WHO REFUSED
TO PROFFER ANTIDOTE
AS THE THEN HEAD
YOU RE KILLED HIS REMAINS
WHILE ON HIS WAY TO GRAVE YARD...

Who among us
will write at the end

Who among us
the last to contend

Who among us
will capture goodbye

Who among us
won’t wither then die

Who among us
will stare it all down

Who among us
our destiny found

Who among us
will proffer the word

Who among us
demand to be heard

Who among us
will write the last song

Who among us
—will bridge the beyond

Exhausted by Time
7-5-2016

Some have lived life with very little to say,
It wasn’t because they had nothing to offer.
Then at its end seemingly just faded away,
Intact with the things they did not proffer.

Each person is assigned an expiration date,
Whether advanced in years or in our prime;
While some expire early others will die late,
We’re all just souls being exhausted by time;
