How I Love You
His "I love you" came swiftly. Like the monsoon pouring down on a leaky roof Those three words broke through my defences. At first they were an ambrosia; They sustained my life and our relationship. At least for a short time. Then "I love you" became an excuse; For absences, and purpose-filled accidents. And I ignored the warning signs, the flashing lights. I pretended like "I love you" was enough... ...But it wasn't. His "I love you"s were like band-aids on bullet wounds; Like using play dough to fix cracks in concrete walls. But I rationed our good memories, I held on as tight as I could to our love And watched as it slipped through my fingers. His "I love you"s became poison, That seeped deep into my bones, And turned blue skies grey, And turned light into darkness, And slowly killed whatever semblance of love I fooled myself into thinking we had left.

His "I Love You"
Children born with *** is the most sadest thing in life. Everyday there is a child born with *** The reason for this is because adults and children are ***** each and every day. By the curel careless people in this world. Kids are sent off to oprphanges in some parts in Africa where honestly is better then some other places in Africa. Thats not it though the ones that are not in oprphanges are at risk each and everyday for there lifes. Not only for this disease but for the curlest people that will **** them for basically no reason because they dont have freedom like we do. Why treat children this way period but why treat them especially if they have limited time in life. They dont get to see and experience what we get to see and experience because we have the freedom. Each and everyday children in Africa risk there lifes to go to school most of them don't survive because once again the cruel poeple in this world **** them. Unlike we get to go to school for free and have freedom. We get to have the oppertunity to have an education. When they are not even given a chioce. The kids that are not in a orphanage are slaves they get torchered they get wipped they even are forced to see there parents wipped, ***** and murdered. They dont have choices at all for there life the chioces are made for them. Barely any water to drink or even food to eat. Children in Africa die each and everyday either from ****** starvation, dehydration or there disease. We act so ungreatfully to people in our lives we should be ashamed. When poeple in Africa don't have parents or if they do they dont get to see unless seeing them be torchured. I am thankful for everything I have and the freedom I have. Learning about this in school was intrestingly horrifying because of what these people do to these children and there parents or to people in general. They dont get *** from chioce of *** or born with it or lack of condoms they are forced with this horrible disease that is life killing and that most likely turnes into AIDS. With out any medical or lack of medical attention the poeple with disease are left to die. With people torchering them by watching and ****** them each and every day. It makes me furious to know that there are children human beings out there that are being torchured, ***** murdered, starved and dehydrated each and everyday of life. This is the life to the day they are born untill the day they die. After reading this think really hard about your life and the things and people in your life is life really hard for you is it that painful is it that horrifying. Put yourself in there shoes would you like seeing your parents child or sibling get ***** murdered or even wipped each and everyday. going without food or water or having barely food or water. For me after writing this and learning it my whole life is heaven compared to them. I have everything they don't and better and I am not even close to being as greatful as I should. Think about this and this is so very true this is there lives each and everyday for the children and adults that are slaves that have HIV/AIDS in Africa.

Ebola
Why is it When I see your face All I could think of, is how much I miss you? How much I want to keep laughing And hugging And cuddling you. How much I want to keep you safe inside my arms While your voice kept on mumbling about her. I just can't help myself From loving you Even though you still don't understand it. Why am I trying so hard to give you as much lights as I can When I don't even have a small gleam to keep myself awaken And alive? All you're doing, is break me and hide the scars Putting on as many band-aids as you can And making my skin joins up together again But you never take the time To look inside my flesh And see how much veins, and thews you have tore. You flip my world upside-down You break my bones all the time You kissed my hopes away Can you at least fix me once again?

Coming from unknown shores, arrived these Western boats, with disastrous as well as deceitful tactics they took our gold, jump to the modern era, they are the ones' promoting *** they bare minimum death rates due to *** and Aids, while African's lives in bitter ruins as the notion of "safe *** seems perplex. *** promotion misconstrued as our kids continue ****** the old, Such consequences were never told, when they sold us back our own gold. Systematical control is now the definer of societies Africans not taught of Qamatha but tested on Socrates, African souls enticed into materialism by paper and cheese, while Western supremacists economically ****** African Identities. African child, fight back please!

Dried Up Tears (To a stranger that I call Dad from your Daughter with a broken heart) There is pain that can not be fixed by Band-Aids and Poetry. To the stranger I call Dad. The one who left me and my sister. For lies and greed, For your selfish gain. Why did you run away? Am I anything to you? You said that you love me, That was all lies. That you always be there, Nothing but lies. You took my heart and stomped on it, a part of me has died. For years you never said a word, so I write, I stand here with a broken heart.

Dried Up Tears.
I come from New Orleans where the swingers hook up with the singers, and the boxes have a person inside who speak to you through a thick horizontal slot in the door. You come from Minnesota where the most aggressive sentence is “Hi, how are you” and you’ve attended church every Sunday of your life, even though you don’t really believe in god. We came to the West to skate with the surfer junkies. But then the harbors got bombed and we moved out East to see the hipsters and the artists beggin on the streets. We went to the South with the racists and bigots were dying for a good show. We moved up North to escape from the 70s, and with the 80s on the rise we figured we’d best stay away. The 70s were rockin’ with **** and LSD in parks and concerts, and on benches on the streets. The smoke in the air was everywhere, from the slums in Wisconsin to the cities of Dallas. Even the poor were lost in the haze. When the 80s arrived with Rock ‘n’ Roll and techno beats from windowsills upstairs. The music was groovin’ and the ladies were fine. We saw billboards of our names in neon orange lights. The *** was replaced by coke, and the LSD with ****** singing and swinging with delight in our eyes. When the AIDS broke out we were sick in our beds listening to Pink Floyd and Elton John, and still we were singing. The 70s got us high while the 80s made us die We lived through wars in Vietnam, and Korea; we fought back the communists with red ink on our hands. We broke down the door into China and got them to arrive in the present and join the world. Although their chairman sits on a chair of lies he leads them with an angry fist in the air pumping “three cheers for Mao”. “Three cheers for Mao”. When the Soviets launched themselves to the moon we responded with our money and flashed our shiny new machinery in their faces. We marked our territory and claimed triumphantly that “We’re the best”. And we launched our war nukes and pinned them into intimidation. Then the Cubans sought revenge for the death of the Pigs on their Bay. With rifles in hand we stormed the beach and unearthed Castro and his regime. With our beds soaked in blood, and our dreams covered with fog, hand in hand we lay. We recalled the dances in the backs of old Cafes where the passwords were as simple as three quick knocks and two slow ones. We remembered the guns that pierced the heavenly chorus for the negros in the south. And we thought about the music of the 70s and the death in the 80s and I thought about you for a minute more.

Frosty the Snowman (And his Brother Lou)
I breathe in this silence that is not Silenced, Air alive with heartbeats and Clocks ticking too slow, Eyes meeting over Sticky plastic tables, Snapping away like an awkward blind date, Fingertips drumming impatiently. Wait. Calm. Be patient. Tick...tock........tick...............tock I can't, I won't, my son laying One floor, 3 hallways, 12 rooms away, But we are relegated to the hospital cafeteria as if my husband and I are naughty schoolchildren, Interfering. My red shirt crumples beneath Nervous fingers, The same shade as the blood given To my son, not knowing it contained Death. Why can't I fight with my son, My son, Shining brightly and boldly as the sun, Infected with a blood-borne killer we were never warned about. Hemophilia is a tough diagnosis, But my careful worrying wasn't enough to save him from a Diagnosis of ostracism and certain death. AIDS. Oh God. Breathe. Can't breathe. Time moves too fast, my son racing towards eternity Alone. White sheets and sterile beds rob My son of all his sunshine, Lips blue and pale like my husband's jacket, Nothing but incessant beeping and bustling nurses who can't fix him, Clock going tick, tock, tick, tock. I see red. Red dripping into and out of his arms through silver needles, How do I know that this is safe, No one knows if this is safe, This is our only hope. Tick..tock.....tick........tock. White coat of the doctor moving too quickly towards us, We run. My heart thumping red and my stomach yellow bile and my eyes leaking blue. Hospital room not room enough for all my emotions, All of my tears, All of my grief, All his last breaths. My son. No longer my sunshine, Just a pale winter afternoon, No sun beneath cold sheets of snow. My son. Time moves too slow when everyone wears black, Like molasses dripping from a jar into Metallic air and earthy graves. Like ash clouding out the sun. My son. No more my sun.

I hope my good old ******* holds out 60 years it's been mostly OK Tho in Bolivia a fissure operation survived the altiplano hospital-- a little blood, no polyps, occasionally a small hemorrhoid active, eager, receptive to phallus coke bottle, candle, carrot banana & fingers - Now AIDS makes it shy, but still eager to serve - out with the dumps, in with the condom'd ******** friend - still rubbery muscular, unashamed wide open for joy But another 20 years who knows, old folks got troubles everywhere - necks, prostates, stomachs, joints-- Hope the old hole stays young till death, relax March 15, 1986, 1:00 PM

Alexander K Opicho (Eldoret, Kenya;[email protected]) It is the 30th day of the months in Kenya State and corporate capitalist have now paid their workers Wages or salaries or stipends or emoluments all being remunerations While the rural bourgeoisie and urban bourgeoisie have also paid ex-gratia To relatives come over-aged workers who have declined retiring For the fear of looming starvation if at all they go home, where they were born, Nonetheless; proceed they receive will do nothing whatsoever As it will be stifled by the monster of desperate consumerism; So fat and gullible in this tiger of land in the region called Kenya; The terror peddling rent, courtesy of ruthlessness of the landlord Bills of electric power in their full monopolistic gear Bills of water devoid of quality, indifferent dysentery monger Wages for maid who keep on usurping the food of my child; milk Bills for gas, all of it redolent of comprador bourgeoisie in fashion, Hotel and bar bill - a surreptious one, as the bar girl only knows Airtime and renewal, TV channels and other screen capitalistic ploys Family trip to local resort in a feat of foolish consumerist venture, Money to the old mother at home and, sometimes depraved but patient father ARV’s money to my *** aids stricken sister at the village, my aunt also Tuition fees for my son at the kindergarten, who goes to schools but learns nothing fees balance which my wife has to pay at the tailor to ransom out her dress, M-Pesa and M-Swari loan repayment, this only for Kenyan 30th dayers They know the agony of dealing with Kenyan mega-capitalist safaricom ltd. This consumerism and **** consumerism, It is the menacing bane of the Kenyan poor It is the avaricious tube which siphons back The hard earned money from pockets of the poor Back to despotic account of the pitiless world pigshotry.

With all the mistakes that I've made, This is the one I'm sorry for most, It's carried with me, the pain I feel, Haunting me like a ghost. Every time I hear your voice, you can still say, That you love me, and you think of me every single day. But the pain, it won't die down, The band aids are not enough, I'm just about sick of myself, Just about given up. Because every time I hear your voice, I still want to say, That I love you too and I think of you every single day. But then I remember our tragic end, And how I asked you to be my friend, And how then I watched you cry, And even almost saw you die... But now I want to hold you close, Kiss your lips and love you most... But the things I did, The things we said, The nights I cried beside my bed, Would never compare to the pain I caused, The many lives that I have crossed. It's much too late to turn back now, Even if I could, I wouldn't know how. I'm not so sure, on what to do, But I'll never give up - give up on you. But with all the mistakes that I've made, This is the one that I regret, This is the one I'll NEVER forget. The simple truth of first TRUE love, Is that well never forget each other's hug, Each other's kiss, each other's touch, The way we loved each other so much... And still do. The way I dream of still spending The rest of my life with you. The nights I still cry, The days were I lie, to the one I gave you up for. But with everything I've done, To you, my love, I'm so so sorry. Because with all of the mistakes that I've made, This is the one I'm sorry for most: Saying goodbye.

Shutting down, My immune system fails, Vulnerable to the germs that breed about the town, One mistake, Protection wasn’t used, Vulnerable to the taunts that make my soft heart break. Although my heart is broken, Words only cut so deep, I know that I am human, Even as I drift to endless sleep.

Magnesium strip brighter than a diamond Sierra Leon blood Stings like an eye-pin, lobotomy, JFK's sister, but this is not democracy, Vatican city, oppression and atrocity Iran, What a theocracy, Brainwash religion, for the jihad, and crusades, Rawanda Armenian, genocides, aids, killing a minority, might gives authority, but the greatest tragedy, is the world wide apathy.

Apathy
Paper cuts make my knees shake. World goes fuzzy land swimming Where are the ****** band-aids? But gore makes my heart sing. Wrists all slit stomachs split wide viscera falling Where are the flayed faces? Blood drives scare me. White vans all out hiding away Can’t they go elsewhere? But dungeons cheer me. Tables and crosses and rusty chains on ceiling our tools all spread out Can’t we go play?

Do you remember Red Ribbons And the fear the world felt inside Could AIDS be transferred through vision Was the air contagious outside Some said the government made it Others thought it was god's design AIDS had infected our spirits Was the air contagious outside Was AIDS transmitted by touching "Don't touch him he's gay and you'll die" Repugnant minds were erupting Was the air contagious outside Do you remember Red Ribbons Was the air contagious outside I started wearing Red Ribbons After hearing my friends tragic tales Of the worst gifts they'd been given Entombed in a black mourning veil Our grandmothers they were best friends You told me, my god I went stale Sick with anguish for your grave end Entombed in a black mourning veil Once surrounded by many, now few Your frame morphed from buxom to frail Love you Joy, I bid you adieu Entombed in a black mourning veil I started wearing Red Ribbons Entombed in a black mourning veil

Red Ribbons
It was the watermelon diet, he said That's what killed me A lie as ripe as the freshest rind Listen to the man He was there at my deathbed Though he never cared for my diet It was the watermelon diet not some virus That consigned me to the Gods The watermelon diet Why now do they doubt my exotic pallet? They've turned a blind eye to everything else until now For months, I guzzled nothing but sweet watermelon Fat mounds of flesh between my greedy cheeks The sheer volume of water left me bloated Before I shed an immense amount of baggage What else could be to blame? Enough of your questions and on to the cremation We'll see whether watermelon burns immortal It began in Africa- no lie there And comes in seedless varieties I never planted mine Though I wasn't want for trying I can still taste the bitter juices as I lay here in my crypt An artful coroner smelt a rat Or a chance- to prove his mettle Never heard of any watermelon diet This is Palm Springs not Papa Nu Guinea A sample of tissue foiled our grand conspiracy Same thing that got Rock Hudson But they kept a straight face Kept to the story, mindful of my legacy I'm not just any ****** Takes something grand and elaborate to dispose of me An immigrant farmhand once told me “watermelon cure the AIDS” And I believed him At least that's what I'd have you believe End

Watermelon Diet
Worm eats through to penetrate. Trespasses, what ***** deeds? What ichor is this to venerate? How dare eat, how dare have needs? Godly viral load unbeatable, no t-cell left to count. Wriggling in puddle inconceivable, **** upon this crucified mount. Lazarus, risen from the dead, no dog now licks your wounds. Lepers now banshees are instead social workers which we swoon. And the Roman laws and judges continue blame, hand down sentence, as degenerative generation smudges out from existence, *** penance. Dissected and pinned against wall, this writhing experiment oozes. Whilst priests and politicians naw, compassion and AIDS funding loses.

Crucify The Worm
Once, a long long time ago, there lived a happy family, of good looking dinosaurs, with all daughters; they had three. The dad went to his job all day, he always worked very hard, to support his family the best he could, against all evil he did guard. And so his daughters and his wife never wanted for anything at all, he even built them a swimming pool, his own hands put up the walls. His daughters knew that they got lucky by having such a dad, who did so many great things for them, though just his presence made them glad. On top of this, these three girls had a pretty awesome mom, who stayed home with them when they were little, and helped them all day long. She put band-aids on their bruised up knees and brushed away their tears, and came when they had spooky dreams, to chase away their fears. Then, when they grew up a bit, she followed her own dream, and started teaching little dinosaurs all the things that they would need. Soon enough, it was time for their oldest to leave the nest, and find out where she should go to start her own life’s quest. While they were sad to see her go, her family did not despair, for it was not that far to her new “independent” lair. All too soon, it was time for the next daughter to move away, she chose a slightly farther place, where they could not see her every day. This made her family pretty sad, they didn’t want her to go, but they knew she had to try new things, and have her own space to grow. And so the “baby” was left alone at home, though baby is not the right word, because she had grown into a beautiful dinosaur, as if overnight she had matured. It was weird for this youngest dinosaur, without her sisters there, she had her parents to herself, along with the entire upstairs. While some days this was pretty nice, it was a little bittersweet, because she loved her sisters very much, and they had moved out of her reach. However, distance makes the heart grow fonder, as the oldest soon found out, she hadn’t thought she could love her family more, but she now did, without a doubt. And though it made her sad that she did not see them every day, they were always in her thoughts, never even slightly fading away. So this oldest daughter was really not too sad, when she thought of her family, it only made her glad. Because what she had realized, with all this time apart, is that you never leave your family, because they’re always in your heart.
