THIS SILLY WORLD
Not that I'm through
By the time I'm through
I'll be through!

This silly world
With silly words
From silly friends
From silly foes
Wholly sickens me.

Not that I'm through
By the time I'm through
I will be through
And the world will know
I'm true in this silly world

And the world will know
An elephant is not a buffalo.

GLORY
When there is jubilation
in hell, earth comes to
tragedy and blood.

When heaven rejoices, the
earth is caught in  flame
of glory and carnival.

O Glory, explode your glory
for your glory in glory.

WAR OF SILENCE
Give me your word
That I may push the world
Beyond the the sword.

Tbe silence is silent
And voice of silence
Breaking the iron gate of terror

Shakings coming with earthquake
In bangs and gigs and bloom
With roarings of silence

Then dead comes to death
And life lives to live
As the world awakes in silence!

SUNS
At astronomical dawn,
we met as suns, as
confluence of rainbow
love, discharging our
rivers of fondness into
each other in emerald gold.

Darkness came and *****
the morning. And deep gullies,
craters, hold-ups, pains and
numerous  sorrows on the way
of glory.

But I know the suns'll not die
'cos what is written is written!

... the glory of the morning
suns appeared again in rainbow
folds, bringing rhombus sheaves
in unlimited volume with sublime beauty.

And I told her, I am your poem
and you are my poem in all
seasons.  
Recite and I recite to the power
and glory of the Author of authors.

SOLD TO HER
I told her from my soul
I love you beyond the sky
I love you beyond the ribs
I love you beyond the rainbow
I love you beyond the shadow.

LIFE IS A GAME
Let me tell you life is a game
Play it to win by its magic
And you'll win the war.

Eliminate to win
Substitute to win
And keep your poise in victory.

You are only a dullard
When you refuse to put
In your dollar of chance.


It takes courage to substitute
It takes bravery​ to eliminate

Tell me, who can win life's battle
Without bravery and courage?

In the heart of life's battle
Lies the treasure of victory
For those who can explore
And exploit life in wisdom.

WARRIOR
I am not a carnivore
but a ****** man eating
the flesh of the baboons.

Colonies of monkeys in
awe watching David in
enterprising exploits slaying
Goliaths in heroism of liberty
for equity.

It'll not be long when the night'll
break into day of  freedom when the baboons will leave the bananas for the monkeys.

Till this ugly night of injustice turns a summer day of freedom when all sieging clouds are cleared, it's war!

DARK
Idiocy running berserk
on the ocean of stupidity,
running mills of blood.

Let common sense find its
senses to arrest the insanity
painting our world gory.

MINUS DEATH
Take me not to gallow
Take me not to abatoir
Lest death host me to a dinner.

Take me to purgatory
That I may not see death!

SHOOTING THE SUN
They shot the morning sun,
to ****** the dawn, expecting
blood in rivers from the rampage
of darkness.

Can darkness triumph over
light? Nope!

As it's in the beginning so
shall it be till the end.

SURGEONS ON MY HEART
Ripping my heart open
in dark surgery, as earth
palpitates on eruptive scale,
gushing out blood from the heart.

See the surgeons appareled in death
aprons
See the air suffocating the earth in gory stings
See the priests offering sacrilegious
sacrifices
See unholy smoke devouring the glorious sky.

Tell truth to stay on the holy mountain, lest she stained by the hands of surgeons operating my
heart at dawn.

Tell the predators that my victory
is eternal as my life soars above
death and its shadow!

SUICIDE, A LOSER'S GAME
In a dark orchard
A dark moon is shining
In a dark firmament

All hope lost
A game of death suggests,
"PLAY ME TO ESCAPE THE HELL"

Another word cries, DON'T!

Suicide is a loser's game
Don't play it.

Life is a game of hopes​
Play it till hope creates
From its own wreck.

Always, a dark night
MUST give way to a glorious dawn.

UNCERTAINTIES
Curdling me on walking
the aisle, she was beaming
with sunshine smile.

I look at the altar of love
I weep gently but profusely.

Can't you  see the
rainbows in the sky of the
festive moon? She queried.

I smile and cry for the the
uncertainties on the mountain
we are about climbing.

Faith navigates all seas
and conquers all   oceans,
no matter how cloudy,
no matter how stormy.
She muttered!

ON THE SOLID ROCK
Can't be shaken
By the buffetting winds
Though this is ugly season
Exploding blood in blood.

Upon the Rock of ages
I stand errect, stiff and solid
Holding aloft my triumph.

My victory on the shore indelible
No wave can wash it away.

SHOOTING THE PARADOX
All that I know
is all  that i don't

All that I don't know

THE LILIES FLOWER
A spring rose,
beaming
gold in a love
garden.

A flower exploding
petals of glory in an​
incandescent morning.

Who can pluck?

CHAMPAGNE OF LOVE
Popping the champagne
of love is nirvana in
eternity.

Give me your love
and let me balloon
in grace of this
*******
of this season.

This season is in
season for all
seasons​.

Don't you know
your love is the
salt of my life?

O dear, let's pop this
champagne and let
my appetite wither
into the abyss!

I know and I know
that love is the only
way to eternity.

LOVE OMNIPOTENCE
shoot me

with bullets of love

and let me
die in the hands
of eternity!

O love thy sting
is eternal

stinging me to
joy immortality!

ODE TO LOVE
Sun of love is shining
Blinding the face of hate
Uprooting evil trees
Planting rainbows in the sky

It's time to worship
To adore at the shrine of love
To bury hate in infernal grave.

It takes an orchestra
To make a symphony
It takes efforts to love

When love flows in rivers
Banks of life are flooded with glory
All is covered by and thrilled in beauty.

What compares to thee O Love?
Nothing and nothing
Let your music flows O Love
And'll dance to the Nirvana!

LIFE
Life is ephemeral
Running vicious circle
Of insecurity!

Some will love you
Some will hate you
Have courage
Live your life anyway
In the opulence of love.

Life here is a seed
For harvest to come
Either here or hereafter
Never be tired of doing good
  
Life at times a dark night
Continuing pulling the strings
The day will come in glory.

Life at times a killing silence
Continuing pulling the trigger
Till roarings of joy enter.

Life, a loan from the Creator
Invest it wisely
For eternal harvest.

Life, uncommon opportunity
Seize it at its fullest
It costs,
But have the courage to pay.

SPRING LEAVES
The bloom in boom
The petals of glory in glory
All leaves turning flowers
On our way to El-Dorado
Heaven is with us here
And darkness evaporated
Till light overflows in glory.

SHUT UP
How can I shut up

When the world is in chains
And tears flowing in rivers
And smile  dried on faces
And blood flood on the streets
As equity is in prison
As truth falling in the street
To shut up is to die unborn.

TIME
On the
behemoth ocean of life I sail
Hosting​ my flag of victory aloft
Water I am not afraid of
Fire I am not afraid of
Neither am I afraid of either land or air
Because none of them worths my fear
Unlike time when lost
Difficult it is to regain
Of all enterprises time is gold
Flying away with unseen ferocious wings
And very difficult to manage
Because it is unstoppable
With creative imagination
I write a paragraph
With countless chapters
And make my ink indelible
On the ocean of time!

GATE TO PARADISE
The blue dew is raining in
roaring fury!

It's a love cascading violently
from ****** blue mountain,
inviting grit from ocean of
courage, to offload tons of
bashfulness overload.

I reach a dime with hazel gaze
to a blue-eyed goddess in the
love garden, popping ogle
champagne in blind lust to
******* world.

I grin!
I grin in summary epic!

The amorous picnic turn and caress
me in mercurial adjectives, embalm
me in emotional stiffness,  aloof
from the real, unfrozen me into
insatiable insanity.

Not long, the craze evaporated
into eternity!

GRATEFUL TO BE ALIVE
To the Master, glory!
To the Buckler, glory!
To the Sovereign, glory!
Oh, how grateful to be alive!

The hell shelling like atomic bomb  
But lose not sight of the rainbow
Off the curve of hell is the heaven
Oh, how grateful to be alive!

The night’ll not endure
No matter the hell fiend
Heaven‘ll outpace its space
Oh, how grateful to be alive!

To the Almighty God, glory
To the Miracle Connoisseur, glory
To the Alpha and Omega, glory
Oh, how grateful to be alive!

The sun coming to delete the night
Conquer the brute dark by faith
And see the stars in blooming petals
Oh, how grateful to be alive!

The moon is coming this ogre night
This ambushing danger‘ll break
To the sunrise of glory
Oh, how grateful to be alive!

Turn not your back
On the forward march to glory
Shoot hope infinite to the dim horizon
Oh, how grateful to be alive!

To the King, glory!
To the Love, glory!
To the Glory, glory!
Oh, how grateful to be alive!

The light will come
Keep hope alive
The sun of glory'll rise

SYRIA: A CAKE IN BLOOD
In blood, a precious cake dancing
aflame in whirlpool of
cyclopean darkness.

The triggers of sanguinary
guns are tumbling down tears,
sorrow and grief in gush on
the cliff of darkness.

The moon,  a crimson cake of
venom toasting blind sun in
gory rays as stars twinkling
blood at dawn.

The orphan profusely wailing
for peace in her own bizarre
carnage in bazaar of iniquity
and rivers of blood.

Let the world stop this blood
Lest this blood stops the world!
