D ish your meal at 6 p.m
E at like a pig that death awaits
A ccept gift and love from all
T ouch lives and leaves every face beaming
H eart knows not the day death comes.

I punctiliously stare the wind
Blows dust over me
Like a car speeding in a dirt track
And I like bird sings my melody
Blithely.

I punctiliously stare the storm
Injects me with flame
Because I'm a crab, I lend
All my horrid pains away.

Last night, in my dreams, God embraced
Me in colors like rainbows
And I laughed at my rainy days
In pitches like a virtuoso.

I have left my tears with mourners
At the mourners' bench,
Letting my eyes dry off like a
river.
I am ready to walk through the path
Where sorrow lost its strength to fight,
To flush every hurt and pain like
a grody ****.
I have a class head who calls
me dumb,
A friend who greets me
behind closed doors
And waves me off at parties
Like a listeriosis carrier.
Sometimes, I did think me a night
A snail that crawls at every first rain
Expectorating at fate like a
Pregnant woman,
Laughing out my essence in bits
And life is leprosy.
Should I tell of my fears and worries
Hunt me randomly under the naked sun.
How my shadow usually awakens me with
Slaps when my mind travels offshore.
I am a star who shines within,
The brightness reflects on my mirror
And my neighbours.
I have been pregnant with dreams
That had robbed me of many a Christmas dress;
Each birth is a Marathon race.
Now, I will accolade myself in blues
And blacks like Agama Lizards
To smile hope in storms.

The little things I do
I mind.
The many things you do
I mind.
Though I'm a bunch of
Smithereen
I am here to garner my
Remains with success.

It’s Saturday night

Of unbridled sorrow,

I crouched in tears

Picked up my pen to tell

God of the story, he had

Known

Of the heaps of burdens

Laid on a child whose adulthood

Met as a teenager.

I know that you know

But there’s an urge to remind

You of the promises you made

To my fathers;

To Abraham, the son of Terah

To Isaac, Abraham’s true heir,

To Jocab, to Jesse, the root of

David

And to Christ the Saviour of the World
