Lubrication―this pressure key would open your flood gate of haven

Don’t be fooled. Lubrication is key. It’s is a mediator. A messenger that appeases her aloof cunt. It makes the crooked way straight And causes rivers to flow in desert places. It opens her flood gate of haven And causes her to bend protocols for your sake. It’s a way maker and a yoke breaker Her stingy laps fling wide at its glossy arrival. You stroke her walls and she hails you “ikemba”. You can’t...

Sight and Imitation  ―psychological power of human simulation

Reminiscing about the good old childhood days, 24-year old Priscilla recalls series of scenario she played out. As a young girl, she would make Sunday afternoons her lesson time, she is the teacher with a good number of pupils in her mind. To get a touch of reality, she would assemble her three siblings as a point of contact, conduct her school assembly with them and teach them. She was the proprietress, the disciplinary teacher...

POETRY: A Difference In Pain

For some, it’s not a question of passion; it’s the quest for survival. For some, it’s not a matter of vision; it’s the necessity to live. For some, it’s not a pursuit for greatness, it’s the strive to not be grain-less. For some, it’s not a matter of purpose; it’s the push to preserve breath. For some, it’s not a matter of luxury; it’s the need for shelter from the weather. For some, it’s not...

Barbed Oddities of the Conformist

To dance another’s dance steps is to deprive your soul its freedom of expression. To think another’s thought is to suffocate the elasticity of your mind. To embrace war without defence is to dig a self-made grave. To fume anger without understanding is to get burnt with strange fire. To expect a harvest different from its seed is to nurture the weed of disappointment. To compare oneself to another is to fix round pegs into...

POEM: The Digital Shrine

The Digital Shrine: A Poem The digital shrine has an altar where the worshipping and slaughtering of humans take turns. It is sacred today and bloody tomorrow as humans are reverenced today and blotted out the next. Like a cow’s plight, when you reach the maturity of mistakes, the ardent worshippers will ardently draw up their swords to slaughter at a lick. When you pick salt over sugar against their law, you are either hanged...

POEM: A Flicker of Hope

A Flicker of Hope (The Ninth Month Reminder) When the roof of your expectation is covered in the emptiness of withered dreams fallen from your years of labour instead of the thuddings of the ripened fruit; When you thought green leaves meant big fruits only to find budding dreams breaking from the enduring branch of actualisation to meet death on the ground; When dry woods remind you of a dry nation soon to be burnt down together...

Can We Be People?  ―psychological relevance of unity and faith, peace and progress

  People whose placement in seats spells out s.e.r.v.i.c.e not subjugation; hose understanding of positions lies in the country’s motto: unity and faith, peace and progress, where unity beats instigation of violence and stir faith in her citizens, resulting in the wholeness that brings progress. People who uproot the weed of greed when saddled with the responsibility of multiplicity and distribution of the nation’s wealth. People who carry on their lips, words of inclusion, fairness...

For Or Against: Bad Governance Is A Blessing In Disguise

It was another headache-exuding gathering of some casual political analysts. My sighing and yawning meant nothing. My dad was invested in the ongoing conversation with his friends. The other day, they were in our house. Two neighbours came knocking because they thought there was a fight. “No, they are just discussing,” I smiled at their curiosity. This time, my dad and I were coming back from his monthly checkup at the hospital. He received a...
