Masculinity

Image
Masculinity  Masculinity is not a tall dark man ladened with a backpack. It is not even the ability to see how many tall buildings are covered by the haze. Masculinity is not the haste with which your eyes judge the things it has seen. Although, sometimes It is the deed that determines whether masculinity is a man or not. Because honestly, I'm not sure of its gender. Sometimes masculinity is  going on your knees while getting pinned to the crest and breast of a strange woman. with chains that make pain feel like gain. It is noticing the warmth in her eyes that tells her feet are cold and bare and making her foot mat with your shirt. Sorry, if you think I am just another lost man enslaved by the snares of this new being.  Because if she demands my boxers too, I will give them to her. But hey! Before you call me a coward I'd like to say that being happy is better than being a king. It will be a frenzy if I say this is not crazy. So let's just say I got Jazzed. ...

A Sensational Birthday Poem by Inyeneobong Mendie to Michael Eshiet

Image
It's your birthday and I sit down to write, Reminiscing those times so bright. We've been together through thick and thin. We've lived through the hurdles to win. Time flew as we grew Together in this bond so true, And I have known friends, But the ones like us are few. I make you mad and you drive me nuts, But we have the thing that is called trust. We laugh, we cry, we make time fly. Together we smile, together we sigh. Over this and that and crazy crap The dodgy pits, that familiar trap. The similarities we share, the differences that glare, But we know that such relations are rare. We share our dreams, these desires that burn, And someday we believe will be our turn! Ten long years and still going strong For the understanding we share in life's ping-pong. So I wish you all the happiness And wish you loads of luck, A bag full of smiles, And chocolate-laden truck. Happy birthday to you again, And I hope that you soar. I'll always wish the best Because ...

Creativity

Image
Creativity   Echoed in the voice of youths Running streams and thunder storms  Roaring, like a fierce lion after its prey  I'm Creative they speak, define. Nursery rhymes, entertaining, advocating Spelling out it's words so smoothly Leaving zero stains for whatever it cares  I'm Creative, unfolding, definitely,  I say. Striking points removed duly replaced by... Perhaps captivating lines, maybe Interesting rhythm oozing saliva,  but cooling emotions  I'm Creative, truth with rainbow colours yet revealed. Pulling cottons, air-conditioning with inborn air Reawakening hope, ticking anticlockwise  Life revealing while exposing death  Honouring, praising, and singing loud I'm Creative, He knows and sees no bounds without sound.

Feelings

Feelings My heart melts like candle sticks  My lips widen as Egyptian cobra  Sugary saliva I've witnessed now Seeming delicious with salty taste Grinning infinitely in a silly way Gnawing... breast?  Breathing... heavily still  A dream comes true but actually myth  And he's finally awake  What happened? Why? Oh! T'was a dream inform of a nightmare  *** My head was occupied by her love My memories with her, lingers Sleep comes inform of death Seeing her was all I wished  Looking... Lying in bed I see her looks Her face shone... Her hands, cold and stealthy  She stared... moving lips without a word  Slim, tall and hot  My mouth opened  Milk, my view was right Michael... Morning is here but you're still asleep  Jumped-out of bed t'was a dream  Joking, laughing, t'is a thing of shame  Mammeth? It's a no for me Mourning and weeping but have to go  Love her more, guess she loves me less Lying and tryin...

Mythical world

Image
Mythical world The reality of these nine Planets  Beyond earth and other bonnets  Rivers, seas and many tunnels  A mystery still with something hidden  Trumpets blown in different language  Hearing and cheering by random people  Head to head they are getting solace So dark and cold as clinching worries  Looking afar but seeing nothing  Getting confused by total wary Imagining, willing and even wishing To have but yet it's singing hurry Revealing but refilling trouble  Look and check it's getting sunny  The truth will come in hilly moments  The world it holds is getting furious  Trouble and struggle is taking spaces Withholding and renewing, avoiding worries  The end is now, it's simply certain

God

Image
God Our living father in heaven  Who knows all, forgets none Who builds mind and heals bones  Who cares more in all time Who gives all but gets less Our living father in heaven  When secret hides in dark spots When devil comes He laughs loud  When summer due He clears both  When singing Psalms He gives ears Our living father in heaven  What deeper deeds we need do What little things we don’t know  What scary sins we owe Him  What wicked life deserves rid  Our living Father in heaven  Why answer yes to guilt men Why listening still to tax gods  Why calling in severe loose  Why Angels here rejoice still  Our living father in heaven  Where sinners sit He sees not  Where lonely walks beside Him Where lowly dwells He lifts high  Where inside us we cares more.

For You

Image
For You Though I barely understand you Loving you at first sight was difficult  Looked, I imagined and pictured us A wonderful moment seems impossible  Cool,gentle, descriptive words infinite Well deserved, but matters arising Hey! A shout of confusion Calling you is something else  Pandemonium, chaotic, words fading  Sorrowful, I wonder not  Comforted, a charming expression  Turning on and on, but suddenly off Pity is me, lover of all  Heart of candle, melting still  Hmmm, a chorus for decisive soul  Saying love is love, and none else  You, a singular you, but plural me I love you more and you love me  Whether true or false, we cares not Feelings we've or filling spaces Truth be told, you're mine A yes or yes and nothing else Forcefully, crazily, we settled all Joy approaching we received in  Mum and dad we're making name Good or worse we remain still Sterling, obviously it's our only need All in all, God of host i...
