FLEE!

You left me to sway
Away from the way.
At me, You chose to wave
As you walked away into your cave.

You broke me
I later broke orders.
Now that I'm free
I'm here to break others.

Flee, everyone!
Flee from the blowgun.
And if I come for you
Be sure evil has chosen you.

THE WARRIOR
Just as they gave her the plate,
Her hungry tongue leapt for joy
Her mouth watered internally.
She then took a spoon
Waited for a while, and stretched the rest to me.
Her eyes watered internally.

She didn't take the spoon because she was hungry
But because she'd rather prefer to die of the poison
Than watch me eat my death.

Although very hungry,
All she needs is see me eat.
And now that we've begged from foes,
She'd rather take the bullet
Than remove it from my body
Because she's a warrior.
Because she's a mother.

LAST CARD
I've knelt my whole life,
Pleading that you allow me build us.
But I'll talk on my feet this once
Not only because my knees now hurt,
But because I've finally chosen to play my last card.

Previous times, you were all I could see
For in the quest for us, I overcame me.
Before, I easily would go on my knees
For I was ready to crawl in.
But now, I've found me.
The me that's up to you
The me that will give more than you.

Let's hear you for the last time.
It is why I'm up.
For today,
I'll rather walk in
Or walk away.

LIFE
Life is a witch
So is everyone in it.
At birth, even mother craves for your tears.
No one jubilates until you cry
For sorrow is the joys of men
"Make him cry!
Spank him
Has he cried?
We're doomed!"
The whole world remain optimistic
That you don't escape this tears.
So is it through out life.

You only didn't know
That the day you rolled out of that bowel
You waved to the world of love and care
You opted for the world
Where crying is the ideal
And laughter only is pretence.

The same maker of the soil, added stones
To threaten your foot
And also make sowing difficult.
The same maker of the tongue, added teeth
To spice sweet savour with bloods.
Although, joy, they say, will come in the morning,
My friend, this sorrow may stay through out the night.

SOLITUDE
If you can contact the accoucheuse of your arrival,
She'll inform you
That you swam to earth with a partner.
A life companion
Whose mission remains to follow you all through.
Every human is born a twin
For even before your placenta
Comes your shadow;
A copulation endorsed by the creator.

What happens when the day suddenly turns dark?
Partner switches allegiance.
She leaves without prior notice,
I guess, to partner another nearby soul,
On whom the rays are now shining,
Telling you to illuminate your world
All by yourself.
And when the least light shines
She appears to be ready to reconcile
The more the light, the more the her.
The more the darkness, the more the absence.

If a divine partner that has no flesh
Can be this fleshy,
And an image that has no self
Can be this selfish,
I choose to understand why hard times
Is sauced with desertion
And why you're never called "dear"
Until you struggle to get there.

THE ANNOYING WORDS OF OUR PEOPLE

"Don't! Don't just stay there and watch how it feels.
Whenever he's angry, take to your heels
So that he doesn't sting you like bees
So that he doesn't remould you with his fists."

These were what people said in my hut
The last time I was hurt.
I adhered the following time, for I cut
Into the rough road immediately he became hot
But on the race, I heard a lot
That made me go nuts.

"Not all husbands taste like oranges
So, learn to withstand some challenges
If not, your little kids will be admitted into the orphanages
Where you won't see them for many ages."

That day, in my heart grew a puncture
Against our people's sexist nature
I knew I was in a battle and not a torture
Not against my husband, but my culture.

HOW WILL I LEAVE?

How will I leave
When our seeds have made it a necessary evil?
For if today I start a new race,
Some people will call them untamed.

How will I leave
When the doors that sent me here are closed?
For if today I try to open them,
People will call me the divorcer.

How will I leave
When my owners have charged too much?
For if today I choose to rethink,
People will remind me money doesn't grow on trees.

How will I leave
When it's only everyday battering?
For if today, I try to save my life,
People will remind me only death should do us part.

How will I leave
When it is a lifetime contract?
For if I get on my feet to walk away,
People will say "go on your knees and walk back in."

A ROAD REALLY ROUGH
This gory map sketched on your face
Shows you've journeyed through furnace.
And the drawn white tracks down your eyes
Shows it has rained too much.
Can you tell me where you had your accident?

"It wasn't two cars that collided this morning,
One ran into the other for this mourning.
Although there was no death,
The survivor sustained internal and external injuries
So much that there was wish for death.

It wasn't the first time
Choosing to go right or left
Results in being trampled upon.
The only plausible direction is straight,
Strictly understanding all road signs of the constructor.

It is green when I go to places he wants
When I drive at his speed, and do all that is said
But on few occasions, I mistakenly swerve
And I see no yellow before hot red.

I curse the year I brought myself into this road
For I only saw it from afar.
Not all that glitters is gold,
Neither all that appears smooth, without potholes.

Let this discussion end
For my husband is almost here
Else, he'll start the action and refuse to cut
Such that my baby would be at the movies again."

A DINNER TO FORGET

While we were yet eating,
Chewing the meat and our inside was heating
A sudden mild air blew a part of the curtain
Then, dinner ended in a manner not befitting.

Why did we serve ourselves
When we shouldn't be found with ourselves?
Why into this dinner did we delve
when we cannot publicly grab the fork's helve?

Henceforth, this type of dinner ceases
Until we outgrow being divided into pieces
So that when our confidence increases,
We'll stop being watchful during kisses.

NEVER GATHER THE CLOUD OF LOVE
Don't hope for the future
If you don't understand this culture
And never think you've done your part
Until you gulp and digest this fact.

Don't even utter a sweet word
If you can't confess it to the ears of the whole world
And never pay my bills
Until you're ready to do it on the hills.

Don't even hold me tight
If momma's knowing will make us fight
And never be sure I won't be your plight
Until you can kiss me under the light.

Don't even call me 'dear'
If you'll only say it here,
And never pretend our love link is red
Until we can get close like it's infrared.

Don't even serenade me by force
If it'll make another lady convulse
And never call ours a romantic institute
Until I stop being only a ready substitute.

Don't even peep into my past
If you're not ready to run with me last,
And never make a meal of my lips
Until sounds of footsteps won't make your heart leap.

Don't even come here tomorrow in person
If this letter hasn't taught you a lesson,
That you should never gather the cloud of love
Until you're tall enough to paint it somewhere above.
