Meshack Bankole Poem
a being of Highly gifted brain
crafty but Unique imagery of god
a being of Mortal makeup
most astute Animal under heavens
he has been Named next to angels
his heart Boasts of big things
and his Ego is but a weakness
even his Instinct to desire is fierce
but his Naïve emotion grows with time
as life Grooms it in the arm of experience

Meshack Bankole Poem
heart has
always been
a great pump
this I learnt
when I was
in school
but the
truth still
remains
unknown.
I have seen
the hearts
of cadavers
how thick
and cold
their flesh
were
but the
truth
remains - my
heart-throb.
though little
truths do
people know
about heart
yet more and
more of my
heart-throb
I know
but the
truth is -
it's more
than an idol
to me.

Meshack Bankole Poem
more is beauty humiliated
when on a public stage
naked stood.
beauty that's all to eyes of much,
is nothing but costless.
such a gilded tomb
enfolds much gruesome worms.
such is a beauty
without a wintering cover!
a cruel plague:
blinding the eyes with nay cure;
weakening the spirits with just a glance.
An absolute deluge!
a heart given to it
restless and untamed be!

Meshack Bankole Poem
a dangerous makeup
painful in its entirety
with no good compensation:
An Endanger of Life!
a scoffing-belief
extra cost for survival
its value nothing can buy:
A Worthless Risk!
a sinful poison
thereby a fool is known
knowledge alone its antidote:
An Eye-opener born by pain!
ignorance
cost me much
and much cost me more
behold very much I now know.
