Mama

You are the native soup inside my bowl.
You are the soft melody within my soul.
You taught me how to till the ground.
You tilled me into a man all round.
Sometimes I feel I've sucked four breasts;
Those of my mummy plus your own.
That is why I kneel...

Wet dream

She twirled and twirled round the pole,
Inside the notorious Honey Club,
In nothing but her birthday suit.
Her body was an alluring meal
Pulling all sorts into the...

My dream woman

With you,
Every talk is majestic
And every touch, magnetic.
I hear the beats in your chest
And feel the heat of your breasts.

You are
My discrete musical scion,
My sweet-sweet mystical...

THE NIGERIAN OPAL

Our Lords were White
But our fathers were bright.
Our land is green
But our children are lean.

Those rivers are full
But these throats are fooled.
Thus, no rainbow across our...

The death of poetry

Like the setting of the East
At the rising of the West

Like the sinking of songs
At the soaring of beats

Like the hatch of boiled eggs
After the sitting of hens

Like the snore of bees
At the drone of flies

Or could it...

Why Do You Call Him The Greatest?

Is it because
"I fly like a butterfly
And sting like a bee"?
Is it because
"You can't see me"?
Is it because
"I have a dream"?
Is it because
"We are the...

Juju

Have you ever woken
From a bad dream
Only to find wild beasts
In your bedroom?
You rub your eyes
And go blind.
Ever heard strange voices
Call out your pet name
In soft whispers?
You answer,
In broad daylight,
And lose your...

MYSTIC CIRCLE

Godhead.
One God.
Holes-in-one.
Beetle hole.
Death-watch beetles.
Sentenced to death.

Soulful life.
Subject souls.
Interesting subject.
Sectional interests.
Cross...

DESTINY (a collabo)

Once upon a time, great rivers rippled
Through gods, demigods & God
Till a genie & the Great cut its black nose off.
The Sphinx had caught fate's flu:
That pendulum of world power.
Persia fell, Rome fell, then the White House rose.
Thither Israel,...

Our "Disemba"

An African twelfth month!
Salons overflow with women;
Wigs, weavons & make-up are sold out.
Broke boyfriends cook up quarrels
To avoid footing Cupid's Christmas bills.
Townspeople head home to villages
But some arrive in big...

I versus eyes

There is an "I" you feel in your spirit. That "I" is great, rich, popular, beautiful and more successful than you are now. That "I" inspires you to forego many pleasures and make the needed sacrifices. Yet your "eyes" tempt you to see that "I" as an...
