Tribute To Wacko Jacko
Pain of a loss like the pain at the cross the crucifix
Bitter than wine and gall mix
How do I express my feelings concerning this loss
When its weight is beyond my poetic expressions
When it expresses itself with more Sofia words
Though I’m going to try
It feels like throwing gold seeds to birds
The only seeds I managed to collect after the harvest
Helping me to keep on sowing poetry
He was one of the eyes eyed by the whole globe
And if life is lost we say bye to hope
His death popped the death of pop as its king breathed his last
Entering the records of history the study of the past
His exodus from the earth

Her, Beauty And Them
HER, BEAUTY AND THEM
She is a fair that makes nymphs stare and go extra dike
Expiating their fantasies on Adam’s likeness since her beauty stuns
Women cry at the rate of adultery men are fighting temptation and the like
All this birthed by evil that had engulfed everything into one
Beauty is evil and tempting so she always wears her tempting gown
Eyes fixed at her alone monopoly of conflict in succession
Peace is scarce like precious stones when hatred hovers around
A cloud of temptation invades the sky
And sunshine gives rays to those who succeeded their try
Families break like clay pots which were once sworn to be tied on knots
Like blood in exile clots, so it is with those who clustered under trees at night
Love in the air but now she came everything lost its name
Its identity, where it was core found
She is a dame pursued by perpetual sound
You are eyes food, you are the delight
You give feelings dormant the magic to sprout and have their flight
I love you and want you in my life is the phrase she hears most
She tends to be receptive or close
Since it is not everyone who at the end enjoys the toast
