Am Poetry Genetics


At post teenage 
some day at tea a committee
my mates same age
while seated a round wooden chair
legs crossed, sipping coffee
did asked me

why do you speak in proverbs
poetry they mean to say.
I air to them in strong verb
living poetry is great pay

In poetic pen
pour my tears
my write for men
in verse

on the tables of my mind
is engraved poetic rhymes
poetry is fertility to my kind
like fertilizer the farm
I smile and chime

On the day of my birth
to this world I ushered
I vest in shirt
to enter

POETRY was there 
to curdle me with care
SHE smeared me with her 
poetic cream on my curly hairs

and as a toddler
when I blink
am full of laughter
with my poetic winkle

my poetic milk teeth you did see
as an infant
you did gaze at me
poetic baby you did me call at instant

Am Poem grown now!
Stamp my attitudes on my write
customize my plight
to copyright

My lyrics in verse
of my tears
It sheds

Prose penned
my mind
in kind

Poems
to tend
my dines

I feed
I live
believe
to succeed

I hunger in poetics
I so eat poetry
I thirsts in poetics
so I drink poetry

I air in poetics
so I breath poetry
I feel bored without poetics
I love cling poetry

I dream poetics
so I live poetry
I sing poetics
I speak poetry

I sleep poetics
I sit poetically
smile poetics
chime poetically

walk poetically
laughter in poetics
work poetically
after all in poetics

am a Poet
with
a bleeding 
pen.

Ode To Momma

She sells items of meager income,
such as;
Soap-flakes, peanuts, 
soft drinks, bakeries.


Not to make profit 
but at least rich enough
To feed the family of gold.

my mummy’s little outlet,
 is the bachelor’s pride.
The young men,
stride in and out 
at will to the little corner,
to make themselves
 fit for the kitchen,
 borrow for the belly,
save for the day, 
and pay for the morrow.

Its chokes to notice 
You re gone
Red is still the 
Colours of the blood
In our heart eyes
Though skin varies
Love you Momma.
The blackness 
Of your skin 
Is it strength

I Can't Breathe

The Last Acorn

 She is a deep feet                 
She has beaten to drown many she               feeds
Her face is a black green                                               skin 
she waves her tail large the size of her                           teeth                                              
Her hungry is a mystery.                                                          kill
 Her fangs cold like an adder's venom                                   sting
She is a regurgitating                                                             beast 
chews her cods                                                                  slowly
raises her prey up down up again and down then up 
the third time and                                                      finally 
swallows after some days in her                     deep
she vomit it prey stiff,                                    stilled,                   
many  forgotten souls lie beneath her.      deep 
The villagers chant songs and  wail.      deep
Like a hawk she dives                          prickly 
On its prey at a glance                 sweeps
Like cyclone and               steals 
At the                   brink 
of her     teeth
Another villager
                              she 
                                            drinks
who gone to be with the river. Last man of his clan, last fishermen of his age mate, only surviving son of late chief only to be seen again days on top of her black green skin, stilled eyes pop out white .River Ethiope is a beast She never get filled

Ode To Nelson Mandela

A broken reed Bleeding through the love pipes of social apartheid, Got fixed after waging twenty seven logs of wood in the iron woods of bars on him Through his mouth, The dumb trumpeted And echoed, beating gongs into the forested minds of men in the distant woods His retina sighted the blind from obscurity of racisms For a bullseye of the Morrow's pregnancies So men sang a chorus ...Hail hail free Mandela His skin wore shackles His mind bore freedom His speech spoke out chains Unweaving the threads of apartheid So men sang a chorus ...Hail hail free Mandela Ode to Nelson Madiba Mandela's voice of freedom

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
