The Symptoms of Nigeria's Governing Arms
Executive- My powers are absolute,
thus I am totalitarian.
The legislature and judiciary
are each subservient to my whims.
I pass my bills with attendant
compliance, and interpret my own
terms as the law.
I shut the doors of compassion,
I am very deeply elusive.
I give no room at all to dissent.
I get bloated with the treasures of the nation.

The Hallmarks of War
Thunderous fighter birds,
loud torrential explosives,
blood thirsty Kalashnikovs,
monstrous and destructive tanks,
bloodshed by the river banks,
numerous catacombs interred,
dismembered bodies
on landscapes littered.
Vengeful hearts embittered,
countless tragedies,
misery corrodes like corrosives,
lawlessness without caution,
insanity without option,
hell is incessantly let loose,
for safety you may never choose.
Men of beastly testosterone
on vulnerable women predate.
Bastards are pervasively birthed; ...

scarring
I show my scars so that others know they can heal.”
―Rhachelle Nicol
scared to be scarred
where pride has starred,
my bosom its incubator;
only to be lonely,
should you disown me,
husks left alone for later.
mock me or make me;
whose life is at stake? gee,
don’t make me find...

My Big Three
The passage of time lends itself to reflection
and while I never sought perfection
I can say some decisions regarding voting preferences
were just a consideration of all the alternatives
Then there were those votes cast at that point
while not designed to blindly anoint
do say yes these values cut across any one moment in time
and suggest a person whom I felt was a change lasting change agent
So while my vote for Jesse Jackson was a message about
getting beyond capitalism on steroids and the murder throughout

Operation social detox
A storm named

big buildings like

The river named

everything started drowning.
the city named

You Tube, Facebook, Instagram

N begging to be saved by .

Emojis started losing

Gray Collar, F Word, Usage
I work in a Gray Collar job
It started out as a in-between move
Then became a career in Outside Sales
Wore a tie for first few years
Now 20 years later, jeans and a t-shirt
Always Black
Gray Collar means you're an Executive
But in a Blue Collar world
The collar color no matter
The usage of language paramount
It's a wholesale materials company
Every other word is FUCK
Not with the customers, inside staff only
It's some kind of lingo mantra
You gotta talk loud and act pissed off
Even if you're...

A Literary Spirit
For les bouquinistes, the second-hand booksellers of Paris, in their fight to retain their more than four hundred years of placement on either side of the Seine, amidst plans by the Olympic committee to remove them
The rows and rows of non-fiction,
and comics and literature,
once looted from the pillaged homes
of lace-trimmed girls and card players.
The stanchions of written words
divided just by water’s edge
have withstood that, so will do this,
beside a phantom troop of pamphleteers.
