POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write at will
CAST DICE
Say my prayers, roll the bones
Bruise feet dashing on stones
Holding faith, but it is running low
I love to wraith, but the pace is slow
Trying so hard to get a six. What a cast!
No piggyback and a little short on gas
Am strong, so i get the hardest fight
Knowing that joy will come at first-light.

Knowing that joy will come at first-light.

A HUNDRED DREAM A MARCH
Roars of dawn gave me a funny chill
knowing there's no beacon of an easy drill
- still same stony hill
That I pray "Oh Lord, please give ears to my plea"
Trust the process- as I connect the dot!
No drift, just shift till I lit that spot
A hundred dream' a march still got a stream of light
I will keep marking green, steady wheel- hungry for that eagle height.
Then, the world will be my ostrich
and I will ride her to a greater reach
knowing there's no beacon of an easy drill
- still same stony hill
That I pray "Oh Lord, please give ears to my plea"
Trust the process- as I connect the dot!
No drift, just shift till I lit that spot
A hundred dream' a march still got a stream of light
I will keep marking green, steady wheel- hungry for that eagle height.
Then, the world will be my ostrich
and I will ride her to a greater reach

INCHES AND PUNCHES
Down the road- too many potholes
Too many dreams- fleet of a thousand echo'
Hope they get to fly
Hope they get to nest
All we do is try
Hoping for the best
Life they say is a game of inches
And at each wrong step- you get punches
With every moment I breathe
Every seconds I outlive the crunch
I won't stop till I reach a point
Where the rose will be my porch
I will use my storm to reach a greater height
And get better through my every fight
Till I flag in glory
And author my great story
Never to let them see me cry-...

BEAUTY FOR ASHES
Let beauty comes out of those ashes
let that smile surpass the pains
Sing that praise when the load seems heavy
and let God do His thing, He is the Almighty.
Life' battles will forever rages
the type that will drift you on shifting sand
but go through every pages
shame the devil, that even rocks will envy your stand
let that smile surpass the pains
Sing that praise when the load seems heavy
and let God do His thing, He is the Almighty.
Life' battles will forever rages
the type that will drift you on shifting sand
but go through every pages
shame the devil, that even rocks will envy your stand

ROL
Sometimes you need a punch to know
That life is a fight
That you are alive or in a position today
Is not your birth right
That's why God is supreme
So just do your best as a being
And when the realities of life hits you
Get use to it-like its a part of you
Life Is not meant to be fair
That life is a fight
That you are alive or in a position today
Is not your birth right
That's why God is supreme
So just do your best as a being
And when the realities of life hits you
Get use to it-like its a part of you
Life Is not meant to be fair

LOAM
Rising to the exigent of circumstance
and still playing
paying sweat and tears
the many fears got me praying
Hope I maintain same wavelength
Going through this rough road
full of thorns and many changes
- I gained a lot of scars!
- I gained a lot loses!
and I still count all my blessings
I try to make it through
where all the doors were locked
Nothing beat a try- I have to break doors
hope I beat the clock
And since life is not a continuum of
-beautiful choices
I will stay strong, focused, determined
and...

ALPHA LIFE
Going through the course of life without a syllable
and each page must be covered
-but how, is still a miracle
Like how I beat a flight of steps
heading to the pinnacle
'Pray I never dash a feet as I write my own chronicle
The providence of life
where some dreams are shut down for another
just to keep tabs on the many needs
-that is just another matter.
If I can get a Kobo for every dream broken!
Well! that's just a dream about a dream
how do I dodge the realities of life?
when in the end
-the truth comes knocking ...

LIFE
Amidst the hassle and bustle
of everyday life
with so much battles to face
You wake up at dawn
to lose the vision
of why you got up-
the so many whys unanswered.
But a man got to stand
even when standing is not easy.

HOPE
Hope is a lovely bird that always flies
the beautiful light that always dies
a stone that crushes when it can't be carried any farther.
And yet-
We shoulder that precious stone
stepped into that glorious light
and reach towards those fine wings.

PHOENIX (Hope)
I let her fly beautifully
A hope, a brighter future
and on her wings lie's-
a heavy stone-
but she must soar
through the stormy clouds.
And then, too brief
came the terrible fall
My phoenix down!
Her wings broken-
feathers litters on the ground
hear her song, her cries!
But no matter the falls, the broke
She'll keep rising, renew, stronger
from the ashes of each burning day.

hear her song, her cries!
But no matter the falls, the broke
She'll keep rising, renew, stronger
from the ashes of each burning day.

THE ROSE OF SHARON
Her eyes a diamond shine
a sapphire as blue as heaven.
The coolness- the ease in her steps
a cat- her walk is a gaity peps'.
Her creamy lips of berry
her oval cone, a shape of merry.
A black beauty- a gift to adorn
A wild rose in the garden of Sharon.
Her body a sculptors dream
at her eight, who would grim?
The flower of my garden
a replica of Eden
I remain your only moon
amidst your many stars.
a sapphire as blue as heaven.

BLOOD ON DUST
Against the roars of the street
I spark-lit my match-stick
heading to a great 'shore
or so I hope it be.
Chanting a "no-going-back" morale
hunting my dreams
Not to stop at light
not too scared to fight.
And on the battle field
the war was never fair
but soldier on I jagged
forged by circumstance'.
So much sweat and bleed
my feet raising dust and creed
I got through every fight
like a blood on dust.
Arch-angels on my shoulder
Victory is sure, over and over.
