Guns firing…Rat tat tat tat…the music of AK-47’s…familiar now…so familiar it’s a wonder people still remember what the song of a robin sounds like.
Boom, bam, boom…the lords of war are gleeful…boom, bam, boom…a whole 6 months worth of harvest becomes a glaring crater…Rat tat tat tat…the music plays…the never ending melody that is death and [...]

Straight from the womb…into the fire!
June 30, 2007thoughts…
June 30, 2007“When a man fails once, he must push harder.
When that man fails twice, he has to re-think his strategy.
However, when that man fails again…and again…and again…well, then its time for some big honest questions!”

Your Smile
June 30, 2007Your name should have meant ‘dazzling smile’,
For your smile of smiles brings about the redefinition of the term itself.
The exquisiteness and utter perfection of your smile could never fail to bring about the spontaneous electrical thrill to a viewer of it extending all the way down to the centre of his very being,
Your smile identifies [...]
Upendo (sonnet)
June 30, 2007Lying in bed with her soul so tortured,
She looks like a rose stripped off its petals,
Like a beautiful smile without dimples,
Like a once flamboyant bird captured.
Her heart cries for love for it is ruptured,
Her agony, with every beat triples,
Her eyes, with every sob, fill with ripples.
Her painful heart bleeds, for it is punctured.
Once again, love [...]
Unsatisfied
June 30, 2007One may deduce that the bringing into reality of one’s goals and aims promotes satisfaction.
This deduction proves fraud.
For I have clambered up the ladder of academic achievement step by step until the very summit of it.
By this, my mother and others I have induced pride in me.
I have endeavored hard to overcome, topple, or come [...]
Trials and Tribulations
June 30, 2007Life is full of trying trials and tribulations I say,
Trials and tribulations that task a still budding young man’s endurance to the full,
That force potentially valuable souls to attempt suicide as a gateway to a better life,
That allow dark forces to shadow, and eventually smother any last wisp of hopeful light,
That render all but the [...]
The Vision Through My Two Windows To The Outside World
June 30, 2007What do I see through my two windows to the outside world?
I see the creation of a stagnating policy,
The formation of a superficial democracy,
The breeding of a new faced anarchy,
The suffering of my people through absolute autocracy,
The eight year old adults of tomorrow bathed in complacency,
A steady deterioration of honesty.
What do I see through my [...]
The effect you have on me
June 30, 2007A swing of your curvaceous hip induces a tremble on my lower lip.
The sexy pout you make, never fails to capture my eyes in a double take.
The way you utter the language of love makes me thank the heavens for your creation up above.
The way you move with such fluidity makes you my number one [...]
E 500
June 30, 2007A stance portraying strength,
A poise that steals breaths,
Lines which reinvent the word ‘beauty’,
It brings a new meaning to quality,
20-inch rims lined with silver,
Beautifully flared headlamps which glimmer,
A V-8 roar symbolizing raw power,
Classic, yet modern, sweet, yet sour,
AGM, EDB, TPS, ESP,
Safety is not an issue it over-sees,
This is something which seduces,
One that impresses,
The new distinguished Mercedes-Benz [...]
Something sweet!
June 30, 2007Cling cling clang cling cling,
Ching ching $!,
Rustle, tear, struggle…Ahhhhh!
Bite, munch, chomp…mmmmmh!
The sweet, delicious taste that assaults your unsuspecting taste buds,
The closest one comes to actually tasting love,
The sensation designed specially to please,
Ladies, gentlemen! This ‘is’ the closest one comes to perfection,
It is, but a simple thing…Chocolate!
