1. BECOMING A MAN
REPROACH
ATTRACTION... hmn.
My glass is filled to the brim..
It’s some new blood.. she
Touched me somewhere
I don’t remember. But
Next to my heart o’ hearts.
Perhaps and yes.
Yes, am fed up n full. . . Oh dears.
How i have loved like i should..
But lived like i shouldn’t.
How I have cared like i should..
But felt like I shouldn’t.
When these tables turn,
I’ll follow soot.
Kigge
ALL EARS
My heart is bittered.. and
Whence did i cometh to hate
My own smile?
Weird sensation.. whose heart
Is freezin here in this misty cold...
I hate poetry. i hate poetry.
With my own style.
To love with no return. an’ lookin
In vain for ungainin fun. i hate
This foul. this lack of self esteem
Failing inspiration for thus beautiful
Aspiration.
These dreams weakened by feeble strength.
This poetry, a bunch of failing lines.
Isolated world, fallin apart.
All undeserving of pain
But followin me to my bed.
My heart is bittered. bittered .. bittered.
With an outroar of steps so hasty..
From an emotional marathon soundin
So lound and messy to the clear midnight chortle. And puttin words where
They don’t belong, when i sing along to that
Peri song.. and yes .. i hate tht song
Tell me
What u gonna do
when am gone?

SHALLOW END
Drown me with your care.
Keep sinking deeper in mine.
Unless you throw in the red towel.
I won’t tell you are mine.
Love is such~ a dangerous thing ..
How many people does it hurt .
I think we should take our time
Don't go lookin for love
Kiss me with your eyes closed.
I wanna feel, the fragrance inside your soul.
Unless you give in completely.
It’s hard to tell if you are mine.
Love is such~ a dangerous thing..
How many pure souls does it corrupt.
I think we should take our time.
Don’t go looking for love.

LIFE
A love so young
And true. Lost it in time.
The story o' em most beutf'l times
O' our lives. Has been judged
By the fate of Chris and Rihanna’s
Delirious affair. Since they lost it,
We are left in a truce.
How we met my Frika.
Our first date. Who we are now.
How we are, ours happiness.
You said Diego Hanendase predicted it.
Rosevelt’s line that stated: when at the end
Of the rope, tie a knot n’ hold on...
Now we’re left in a truce. My dear
***
Ours is a failing love. Our young flame.
Burnt out.
Darling, I tied the knot. Und held on so long. But
Such as mine, are rejected hearts. Free fallin
Broken every time. When I see no morning call,
Sorrowful lines enshroud my consciousness.
The sun sets at dawn und
The morning worries linger on. .
You said an ideal day should begin,
With a cute little yawn upon this face..
With a cup of tea in my hand und
An sms from my darling friend. .
But now our hearts went to war.
And my young love kept goin on. My love,
Am forever in a trance.

DAYS OF GOLD
Good times be better.
And thence shall i
Find yours lodgins here.
Where you shall be in mine
Remebrance always.
Knowing we’ve watched us
Rise...
Your sweet sensual love,
It tastes like pure honey. My love,
Thus shall I search your heart
From time to time. Regarding always
Of the sweet memories made, as
We’ve watched us
Rise...

THE REINCARNATION OF SORTS
Whether it takes
Tongues of lightning cuts
Across mine skies
Be it the the deafening
Loudness o’ thunder
And an indescribable blaze that
Thus smites mine eye
Perhaps a more natural current
Take a tornado sweeping in
Fast n’ steady through mine heart
Yet none of these shall break my spirit.
Am more of than myself
A dreamer. A cup filled to the brim.
I live out. To live again
Kigge
FEELING YOU STILL
Though seasons past
Love has us meeting once
And more. I feel your gaze
Drifting through em clouds
Then am strong
My sadness quickly fadin
As the fire you left in me ignites
And more none the less
My troubles upon the doorstep
All reliquished by your smile
You are a pill. I dearly kept within
The pendant upon mine chest.
You take away the hurt.
And thus bring us hope from
Beyond.
You are the myth
The surrounds my step
A satisfaction. A present help
In our time of need.
A guardian Angel.
Who would’ve known!

BLISS IN QUARANTINE
Lovers and the hunger games.
Who’s in. Some get caught in pairs
As for me I’d say, ‘ we woke on
The same nest’
We loved and made love a night away.
Thence loved again. For a friend
And the whisky, it’s had to find rest. We
Laughed our heads silly.
With you
I’d have breakfast at dusk.
And be willing to go all the way. The
Wine and the song plus
A pretty face as good as f**k.
I like to eat you out first, then we be
Talkin’ about lunch or dinner perchance.
There is a glimmer in your eyes
That’s why I try to search deeper therein.
Love struck and stupid. I may ne’er recover.
mesmerised and delirious in love.
Am really in, for an eternity o’ passion.
But before we become fairies 🧚♀️ 🧚♂️
I still have one query.
who brought the hunger games.
‘Cause for once I ain’t feel like playin’.
And I know you’re pretty head.
It would be yawning graciously by ..
Don’t get me wrong now my love.
How about you call your dad?

FADED
Love in her own words
She said I got married to a romantic
He saved none but showed me the moon
Had non but we lived in the stars.
And when I looked in his eyes,
I saw Jesus and the four horsemen.
I got married and lost my mind.
The sun rose at dusk.
We slept at noon. To have sex by dew fall.
I can’t recall the last time I ever felt unloved.
Perchance less. But I had more.
More than the strange feeling on being alive.
For I was more alive than the bitches in my town. For whence he touched me, I melted like
Chocolate on a sunny day.
If only I knew my man was a scented candle.
I’d keep the drippin wax. He left at New Year’s Eve. He dusted his feet and covered all trails.
His words faded like the taste of fine wine.
And his scent covered my lonely days.
Like the candle he was. Ignited once, burn low first and almost gone out. Only if I knew the later would turn ablaze.
I would keep my man to date. !!

BEFORE THE FALL
Am a Red candle.
Flame dancing in the rain.
Twisted but all the same. I moved where the wind blew in a furious assertion.
But my flame went even higher and higher it went. My smoke vanished in the skies.
As my flame boasted upon an undying end. .
Am a brilliant glow.
I bring back your home memories.
From the far land you left to outgrow.
The bush road ne’er tended no more. The forgotten fields of corn, the alleys and the hills.
Your old bones ancestry, and the neighborhood
That passed ,with the ascension of smoke.
I am golden and bold.. I am weak and am strong.
I cleared the way of a fool,
And shook the dark in his lonely nights. Gave him a life! as I sent him to the land of the learnt. Sometimes I came back dead-drunk. My happiness trapped in the stench o’ whisky.
Yet strong and steady enough to dance,
With the stars and the moon, to the sound
O’ the rain!
Now am dripping wet of failing wits.
This melting wax makes my wick stumble. As from it emanates a river o’ wasted years. .And my bright days now past. It’s at such times, that i wish my beloved fool calls.
For remembrance sake! . . Of whence I lit many flames.
Before the fall.

LOVER’S CONQUEST
Tender and sweet. My lovely Miss.
You are the glimmer in my smile.
The rhythm in my heart beats.
Our hearts were intertwined and
Bound by chords o’ endless love.
The sweet sensation of burning anxiety
It lingers around my mused self.
When you touch my hand, and
Say those sweet words. I’ve waited
So long. For a familiar sound.
Oh, my darling miss..
Shall I compare you to a perfect night?
You come in a rare stance. Mischievous like so. To rob me of heart n soul. Please stay, least
To the break o dawn. Am in awe of the softness in your palm. Still yearning for more!
A stary sky awaits. The moon smiles,
And waves our worries behind
them lofty clouds.
Like I have, seasons past but four. Searching,
Hungry for a Milky Way. My love.
Let’s stare into the night. And~
Make love till day.
Come-on my darling.
Whisper my name like so
In the dead of the night. Let me make them,
Your wildest dreams true in a glance.
My fingers get tipsy, dancing upon
the most adorable skin.. Under a peculiar lighting, my eyes are lost of sight.
Something about your intricate curves commemorates liberation day. One chance.
One night o’ unfathomable warmth.
Tangible wishes, more truer than destiny. And
One sweet word, that touches the most
Resentful heart.
It freaks me out. My pumpkin~
As you pull me into your space.
Our Hearts were free to love so. And
I ran a hero’s miles only,
To fall deeper in your arms.
Am Your caged song bird tonight.
Hold me closely. Tender and lovin friend.
Let me see your favorite pattern. Am a sensitive kind. If i can imitate your song. Only hold me gently.
We can together transpose ~ tender n sweet
And never let it fall. .

FOR LOVE
I fucked up my best life.
And rejoiced in the spoil.
Went dancing around the fire
O’ irresistible infatuations.
Let’s say I gained the thrill
That’s stirred my crazy soul.
I’m now a wild horse
Running freely in your mind, where
I can feel your terrors. And wild thoughts
Precedent of far Beyond us both.
I tend to your tempting fields. The moans o’
Your intimate soul alike. And I watch
As your eyes close.
Let me humble your fears.
Your insecurities say. The beastly fun
I have, I can’t help but share.
Do you feel me, as I caress your scalp?
Am running in circles, and dancing~
Around your stuff.
Place your arms around my neck.
The flames o’ love shall take us in a lapse.
I’ll be your midnight train. My love..
I’ll be your ‘run-away from home’
I’ll trash the things you’ve known. An’
Let your psych side show.

LEFT IN THE COLD
Love is blind.
You may get accustomed to it.
May even come to enjoy it.
Modeled by the hands of creation
Deceptive and true.
There are two sides of love
One good but a bluff. Another
Simple and kind- but small,
Won’t last a lifetime.
Which takes me down memory lane.
I’ve been sitting by myself.
In deep awe. O’ the immortality of the soul.
Which rejuvenates the frail flowers
And resurrects a dying passion.
How they made it so pure an’ how
It became so stained. How so high,
And how so low. It once was so real
Now ‘vanity’ to some as it is called.
Wild desires sprout through its form.. .
Save for the sick world, they grow thorns
O’ bitter sweet sensations.
Love became a ‘don’t take me lightly,
I can explode’. You can have my heart for now.
But don’t emote vibrantly.
Or else I have yours sold. It’s only due a summer’s day! Now come under my skin
Or be on your own by winter’s fall.
Dissolved by the pouring rain.
Drained with the floods. Along with
The other waste. So love‘s end is marred.
Hard to find and.. barely sought.
But be of good faith. Only God can tell.
Whether it lasts- or rather it won’t.

SHOW ME HOW
My heart leaps. Not with joy.
For am weak and my limbs are numb.
From loving so strong.
My smile fades. My face drops.
My sight blurs. Floods from my eyes.
I can’t resent_
Been loving you all day long.
Someone show me how
To make a girl care.
When it comes to my heart,
The game ne’er was fair.
How can I love, love, love?
Hold on to a heart, that was
Ne’er there. .
And crave for a star, that ne’er
Was mine. .
But mine heart goes on.
For am weak in body. Save
Am spirit strong.

EXPECTATIONS
Whence I met a girl.
Didn’t pick her from em stalls.
Perchance needed something more.
Perhaps would care.
Someone i could talk to.
You and I might be havin’
Lot in common and out o’ ordinary.
The other girl cared a little less bout I
Perchance needed a lady
But desire something more.
When I got a girl.
Her eyes glowed with love.
She was for my shoulder but,
Ne’er minded if i wasn’t for hers.
Perchance I wouldn’t care.

TOOK THE DIAL
When you called, was in check.
Mine eyes staggered.
Those lips o’ mine heavy with
Stummer. Held mine mind like a book.
Thence for you I could read fore hand.
Till you called, my days o’
Misery covered. Love lured into play.
Mine evenings much brighter.
Every word crystal clear. Like~
There were not better
Remedy for my soul.
Incase you don’t remember.
I reckon the day you called.
Heard the sweetest voice in a while.
Love lingered for passers- by.
How could I tell,
O’ the day you called?
Kigge
FELT ATLAST
Straight to the heart.
Every single word. Rhymed like
A far cry. Resonated. . .
From a much pure heaven.
And am in no position,
To say how i felt.

STUPID GIRL
She won’t say sorry.
Her desires shall choke you.
She won’t mind the heart.
You won’t need to say,
I told you not so.
When the tables turn
To an innocent life, the hurt.
She lets you know from your strife.
You were ne’er in the game.
She leaves you wasted.
Pretending she’s hurt so.
Neither judge nor jury, see!
You jaded .... wasted ..... mindless
Sex all more but thrice the month
And someone else.
Won’t follow your rainbow
Whence the four winds- blow.
Poor harlot. Plucked whenever she
Grows some pretty petals.
Much like a pawn.
By this game o’ chess. None
Backward move. Only forth comings
To own destruction. An’ won’t
Mind the hurt. My poor fellow!
Oh innocent life.
Shall be on with- your life.
Her desires shall choke her more...
Hope she gains some self-control. So~
Rid yourself o’ the stupid girl!
And find yourself somebody to hold.

BY MY SIDE
Glory days - oh my
Beautiful faces by my side.
I didn’t buy this music o’er
Here by my side.
The melody flows through.
Wonderful thoughts o’er
Here mine mind reminiscing ‘em.
Beautiful ladies- oh my.
On a trail o’ broken hearts
Where sad songs came through.
Arrow stricken hearts
Fail in chances ne’er coming back round.
Our dreams meet at the end,
The end o’ a lonesome life.
Dragged through the ruins by
Unfailing love.
Joyful memories cause excite
Here by mine side- bore by
Wonderful friends that I have.
Keep hopin’ for better times.
Take me. Take me
On a magical journey my ladies.
With sweet melodies comin’ through.
Mine mind can’t help it no more.
Wonderful curves besides me
That can heal a broken heart - oh my!
Didn’t buy this company o’er here
Just glad we had this time dears.

LOVED
As we art highly favored.
The strong and mighty n’
Them mean at heart are calmed.
Our most valuable investor smiles.
Smiles upon our innovation.
Ours lame business comes a leap
In flight of eagles soarin’ high
With a many wings carry’d by.
The bad father’s curse below.
Not in his reach no more.
As I turn from Glory to Glory.
The Lord’s Hand not with ‘em
Proud in their own hearts.
He waves them yonder His glorious sight.
The exploiter’s dream fades.
On the shoulder o’ his mischief.
Jesus Name be highly honored.

WAKY WAKY
. . . and look, the moon is gone.

Walking in my sleep till dawn?

That strange bitter sweet.
Unfathomable .... unreachable.
Laid back n’ ever wantin’.
Starved n’ forthcomin’. Been-
Feeling you here in stories.
Stay by mine side now.
Your finger upon mine lips.
Please place your hands well.
Where the heartbeat thrives.
Isn’t that easy?
Then pluck a sweet note.

I wanna feel forgiveness. And love~

SUBMISSION TALES
The lady sees her man.
They’ve been sitting upon the table.
So he speaks unto his lady an’ says
‘ lady, you have cook’d for me a long while,
‘N gone are the years. Alas!
I’ve bought you a house’
The lady sees her man.
And they’ve been sittin’ upon the table.
What does his lady do? By these words
Falls unto her knees with thanks givin’.
Receives the keys in tremblin’.
She’s a lady worth living a mile_
She’s a lady. A lady for his man.
Just so you know
There is a secret in falling in love
The happily married folks never told.
Seeing the way humility takes its course
In a lady’s heart, is worth more than gold
In the eye of her man’s pride.
If he’d only do a few things right. Love
Would never feel so wrong. For
At the sound of a few passionate words
She loses all her defenses and
Her submissive heart shows.
She could go on all fours for her man.
She could do all his favorite songs. And
If he wanted her to,
she could do a sweet little something more.
The lady looks in her man’s eyes
And this she truly knows.
The fiery love she holds
Feeds on her man’s diligence.
Diligence with consistency to do them small, easy, sweet, lovable. . . Passionate,
Intriguing, sensual, tempting and kind acts
That she always needed like so.
Hunger heals as_ her countenance falls.
This is all she ever longs for.
This Is her little secret. Easily discerned
But never told.

BORN OF HOPE
When my best friends
Leave. Thence do I know~
Everybody else is gone.
But Alas!
Am still standin’.
For Jesus remains.
When they go. Let them leave.
Who would’ve known,
Toilet paper would be an Easter present?
And kissing would become a luxury?
This is where~ the monster comes
And everything fades.
But Jesus remains.

IRRESISTIBLE LINES
He said. .
‘Your delicate body is but
A long and windin’ road.
I won’t take for grant’d save
Drive slowly love -
You dangerous like so’
And I believed him.
He added, ‘You see,
I was thirty seconds behind.
From falling in a trance, my friend.
Slowly . . . Steadfast . . Sweetly!
No sooner had I seen your beauty
In the review mirror, than
Was riding with my eyes closed.
To get closer to you!’
I was like ‘Anhaaa.....’
‘But lo. .
When I had it at last,
As you turned to stare by dawn,
My darling. My head moved fast.
Either side. Left to right.
How did I even get here?
Was puzzled!’
And that was it! Blocked at once!
Crossed the ‘no trespassing sign,
So he received two Hot slaps dears. .
I can afford a night With a fool.
But not_ A lifetime.

RATIO OF THE HEART ❤️
If I didn’t leave them
For a little while. How would I have known
They had options? Amidst the best
O’ intentions!
Nevertheless . . .
In my humblest opinion,
The woman follows her man everywhere.
From time hearts intertwine,
Till death do them part. Only ~
That way, nature is balanced!
So I rest my case.

HOW OLD
Do you still ask?
Am of African decent.
I beg to submit. So,
Just Incase you like to know.
How old. How frail !
I age with the sun 🌞
And by dusk, am drawn behind the hills~
In a beautiful orange orb. Gracefully,
I dance behind the lofty clouds ⛅️
As i give way to the night.
My skin may shed.
May wither. May fail.
But my soul ain’t that meek to time.
Am black. And am bold.
Am forever young. 😊

FREAK OR FRIEND 😊
There is a hole in my wall.
The monster that ate my bread lives therein.
He is steal-full and he is wise.
Smell is his sense, to have all he can find.
There is a monster lurking in the dark.
He is brown. And he is gold.
Took the crumbs upon my platter n’
With him carried along a whole store.
Crawled out of the wood-work for his demise
Last night. I watched him crawl across my floor.
There is a hole in my heart.
And one in my soul. How wide is my hole!
Only you can know. But enough to let lovers go.
The beasts use it for a door.
Since mine acquaintance been ~ long gone.
Robbing me of body and soul.
