What aspects of your cultural heritage are you most proud of or interested in? Not narrow narrative could typify this, Else, we tend to segregate by colouration of pride, Negro, mongoloid and Caucasoid, All in one common undeniable format, Human! any other addition is ephemeral. Relics of our domiciliary corners Might not reflect our trueContinue reading “CULTURAL HERITAGE”

BRAND
What brands do you associate with? Brand walks hand in hand with choice, On the street of abundance and surplus, The heart merry as it chooses what pleases the eye. But on the crescent of lack, Where scarcity rules as an emperor, Brand is locked up in the prison of the mind, Where desires canContinue reading “BRAND”
MORE
What could you do more of? Writing to brighten the darkened corners, Beaming this little light of mine, With wordings of hope, courage and love, I wish I can do more over and over again. Like a lily in the mire, I long to show, That in every imperfect situation, There is a glimpse ofContinue reading “MORE”
PRESUMPTUOUSNESS WORSEN MATTERS
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received? Too quick to judge he was, Dagger of words to pierce her heart, For an action judged presumably, Later to realize that he was wrong.

JIM REEVES: THIS WORLD IS NOT MY HOME
What’s your all-time favorite album? Ever green sounds of lyrics to my ears, A performance orchestrated by a spirit man, Just like the latest release of last night, The sound that draws me closer to the celestial. A countryside cowboy singer was he, With a touch of heavenly burden before home going, Just as ifContinue reading “JIM REEVES: THIS WORLD IS NOT MY HOME”
THE COST OF GLOBAL PEACE
Which topics would you like to be more informed about? In a world of chaos and conflicts, Where world leaders are confused and perplexed, And innocent lives in their thousands Are daily sent to their early graves, There I stopped to ask, What is the cost of global peace? Compendium of literatures are littered InContinue reading “THE COST OF GLOBAL PEACE”
MUSIC: THE LIFE’S MELODY
What would your life be like without music? Straight from the heart to the hearts, Is it that calms the soul. A universal language on men’s lips, As we hum along with rhythm unknown, It’s a therapy for the wounded mind, A melody for the merry heart, A steady momentum for the soaring soul. ItContinue reading “MUSIC: THE LIFE’S MELODY”
HOLIDAYS
How do you celebrate holidays? REST: in a serene homing environment where the body feels at home. RELAX: in the cool of the evening breeze, where the mind is let loose from matters that borders. RELATE: with families, friends and folks who have been seeking for you attention. REACH OUT: to the less privileged, bereaved,Continue reading “HOLIDAYS”
IT WAS A REPEATED BURNT OFFERING
Write about your most epic baking or cooking fail. Belly was flat, mind was unsettled, Need for food, food uncooked in kitchen, Then rose the man out of his mind, Though busy with many stuff On the table littered with thoughts, Straight to the kitchen, To cook beans for meal, Few preparation he did, ThenContinue reading “IT WAS A REPEATED BURNT OFFERING”
