Ripples

S upple skin And milky liquid; I want to gulp the world. Bland breeze Cuddles my lips; I want to kiss the moon. Smoldering ripples Tickles my palms; I want to surf the sea. Joyous jingles Lick at my limbs; I want to ride with you.

...and there was light

Darkness. It overshadowed the world with wrath and war. With its vicious forces that stretched like the sea, the world fell again and again. Brutality. That was the word for the massacre. With their weapons dripping with blood and flesh, the forces of the dark lord hacked mercilessly the souls of men. Countless heads rolled down the mountains of the earth. None could save it. Its helplessness was a disaster. The enemies advanced deeper into the heart of the world, thirsty for more blood, for more victories. Amidst dark and gruesome clamour, they plundered everything they found on their ways. like swarms of locusts on the loose, they marched, raining fire and chaos. Women, helpless and powerless met their doom in the hands of these brutal fighters who raped and tortured them to their untimely death. Vulnerable, children found their innocence stolen from them, as they saw blood flowed like a river. They saw their world crumbled and they wept. On his dark beast, the dark lord beamed wi...

Dreary Death (For Yinka Craig

I On this bed Sleeps an older bird His home was once a nest But here, he lays to rest II Upon this chest Lays a precious pearl Yesterday, he sucked the milky earth Today, he drank dreary death. III Don’t cry when you see the grave For it is made for the brave Life comes and go like rain So will you when your breath is slain

Once upon a time...

Once upon a time in your arm, I saw pleasure on the fingertips of bursting dusk and my body throbbed to the rhythm. In your arm, time lost its urgency and passion triumphed like waterlilly. soft moist dew trickled and glistened on flesh intertwined in battle and victory. Once upon a time in your arm, I found you. I found me

Love Fell

Love Fell Love fell and a million hell burst crudely with sapphire. The earth trembles, trickling with salty brine and tepid tears nearly drown the soul. Love, tender and sweaty, was pushed down the craggy edge of the wild mountain and she wept. With its fluid alto, she wept for help and breath until the terror, ready and raw welcomes her where corpses littered and passions mangled. Love fell and the earth fell too.

from God and his Demons

December 5: This morning, I woke to the gruesome sonance of death. Horror seemed to be everywhere, banqueting freely on human flesh like a vampire. From the mission house, we could see as smokes of burnt houses ascended to form an alliance with the grizzled cloud. Shouts of terror, wailing sounds of guns and Arabic chanting became so regular, it nearly twisted one’s brain. Later, when the terror seemed to have subsided, father went out to see what was going on. I volunteered to go with him but mother would have none of it. When he returned about three hours after, he did not come alone. He came with so many families who brought with them tears of sorrow and loss. Father announced to us that the Jihadists have declared war on us. Christians in Zaranda have been marked and their blood will the shed. This is happening because a Corper seized the Holy Book from a boy who was caught chanting a verse during his lesson. Some of our visitors slept inside the church while the rest ...

Your Blue

Your blue, Bathes with golden hue And love brims Like the fertile sea.
