Seeds of similitude of things seen , virtually
Icon’s deceive through their image’s
the works of creature’s hands not the creator’s
In my youth I have known none but you,
molded I was of your words,
in your hind I was shielded,
but now Mama you are gone,
to whom shall I know in similitude?
With this hand I passed unto you,
the dust,
this it is, the dust
dust to dust,
but the dust I passed,
will be passed unto me too.
Analogy of Life
Faults of
life, might be,
for
opting some analogy;
Humans earn or
inscribe poem,
or write an ode and earn,
with or lacking a logic,
and similitude;
But all manifest in
void and
life becomes a finding,
humans, the modules
and our analogy –
become elements
to instigate the poison
to irrationalize the self.
My light was dark and cold
til you came in the door,
then time fell through the floor.
To you my soul I've sold,
The price I'll pay, untold.
My heart you'll soon restore.
Til then my hope so true
is our similitude.
As life we mottle through,
I'll share myself with you
in life's short interlude.
Then death we will exude.
For you my only plea,
are you my destiny?

There’re merits to simplicity!
It’s void of dark duplicity,
It’s lacking eccentricity
In its mundane basicity.
Complexity, troublesome trait,
Catchy, sophisticated bait,
Morphs into agitated state -
Perplexity where nothing’s straight.
My ex and I were simply screwed
By absence of similitude.
Me being a simplistic dude,
Irreconcilable, I conclude!
CHERRY BLOSSOMS AFTER MIDNIGHT
his sweet voice, I savor
i shake off the shivers of December
his cordial words warm me
i adjust the heat, grab another blanket
the vibration of his vocal cords
similitude of a lover’s lullaby
the sea so gentle, the silver moon
i’m lulled to sleep by his cherry blossom lips

callous clouds cremating
hoisted horizon hibernating
mystic mirror birthed
meagre mimick mounted
pulpy punctures lent
lanky lust wretched
bounty boulevard bruised
humpty-dumpty craving cruise
perforated pilgrims puked
sassy similitude seeped'n
vulnerable voluptuous trees
dark dribbles creaked
airy aura tripped
nocturnal nature gripped.

Note: Of nocturnal nature. Inspired by a picture saved from Temi Otedola's.
The storm raged around me
the prison of thunder and rain
keeping me static
never moving on
as the lightning crashed inside my mind
ceaseless recollections back in time
repeating echoes of pain
no place to turn
nowhere to go
no place to call home
there is no escaping thoughts trapped in the mind
flashing effigies of memory
struck by time into imaginations of fear
and like a babe in the dark
I cry alone, always alone
