A piercing cry punctuates the silence
Make way
Pierced side and hands and feet
Pricks ears, pierces hearts
Unquenchable fire, unquenchable love
A wilderness wasteland or a narrow path
Choose this day, give your ears to hear
And live...

Rain-steps publish worms,
wriggles scribe themselves.
The thrown thud of a newspaper
punctuates the wet and written.
Sparrows scrawl and scrabble,
foraging starlings attack the earth
sounds squirm up,
muddy scripts are picked at, edited
a door slams,
the ground rewrites itself....

A dying sun slips off the edge of the earth
its light banished until Dawn's rebirth.
Night punctuates a dog's bark
with tune of a lark
just before
dark.
At its core
ebony stands stark
when lights go out in the park.
And as dusk douses feelings of mirth
a dying sun slips off the edge of the earth....

the night is young...
and cool as cucumber
together we stared at the future
puncturing the punctuates of life

the night is young...
in her sanctuary i staggered
conjuring and chanting in the bowel of thighs

the night is young...
in the balcony of her kisses
i conquer nations
for the love of , Oyenchi

Sweat mingels with my tears,
as thunder reverberates above.
Angels with calginous garments,
stand in obscure doorways;
as lightning punctuates the empyrean.
Looking towards the future,
I can only envision the past.
So once again I plant flowers 
at my brother's grave.
But who are these flowers really for?
The person long since deceased,
or the ones who remained behind?...

ETERNAL EXISTENCE

Misuse decay's from inside-
Scripture beats crime lies upon early sunshine-
Empty life leaves scratch the willow sallow-
Warning day o' coming washes man's sins forgiven

Luke warm sadness punctuates inert organs pain-
Hunt of madness catches forbidden below us-
None seen -none heard creature hides behind-
Battle bow of bones in time 
All life folds above us sweet exodus...

The soundless rhythm of my hidden thoughts
Punctuates my strides on the unfeeling ground,
The chorus of my countless unwritten poems
Have a place in my private recesses found.

I feel a poem in the chirruping of the keen sunrise bird
And another in the sickening brutality of heartless men,
A couple of verses in the little-noted burials of great souls
And endless sonnets in the mystic things beyond my ken....

Misuse decay's from inside-
Scripture beats on lies of crimes in an early sunshine-
Empty life leaves scratch the willow sallow-
Warning day o' coming washes man's sins forgiven

Lukewarm sadness punctuates inert organs of pain-
Haunt of madness catches so slow below us-
None seen -none heard a creature hides behind-
 Battle bow of bones in time, all life folds above us sweet exodus...

Rolling hills dim in the distance
Beneath low-hovering mists,
While an occasional stand of pines
Punctuates the shallow canyon rim,
The steppes to the summit appear
Like wrinkles carved into the face
Long ago, the sharp outcropping defines
A deep crevice plunging sharply
Toward the foreground in shadows,
Vanishing into imagined darkness.
