they call the train station crack central (home town observations)
A pigeon was scavenging scraps
along the edge of the drive-thru
while we were waiting in line
for coffee and fries
and I imagined it pecking
on every car door
asking if we had any potato
and salt to spare
The people 'round here
aren't that much different
to that small grey pigeon
scavenging for scraps
and shiny things left on the ground
...
There's a family of shopping trolleys
around the corner from my house
that are filled with molding rubbish
It's only a matter of...

My Earliest Memories
Murtala Muhammad Specialist Hospital, Kano, Nigeria
Friday, January 19, 1990, Late Evening
A baby boy was born after hours of intense labor. The medical team assigned male at birth.
My earliest memories
Are still listed among the most unsolved chronicles
Immediately after mum put to bed
Even before the midwife reaches for me
I stood up and walked with a waddle
So exhausted I placed my back on the wall of the room at an angle
Medical personnel in the room were all
Gobsmacked, shocked or brain dead! ...

Keep people out your business
Do not tell people things about your personal life, y is that cobra? well because they’ll tell everything about your personal life, twice, they’ll remix the story, have you like, that story ain’t right, have you so mad 😡 you’ll be knocking ish over, punching through walls, cursing people out, bouncing up in down, head moving side to side, ready to fight.
So keep it to yourself, I know it suck some time, cause you feel like venting be good for your health, truth be told it is good when the right people there, that circle made of thin air, in other words need to be...

When We Learned What We Learned
When you were glitter and sparkles
When you were new and not fully known
When I presented my best side
When you were fantasies and dreams
When you were all I ever wanted and so out of reach
When you first touched my hand and it was electric
When I got brave enough and stole a kiss that got the ball rolling
When we fussed and fought getting to know each other
When we made up and let love prevail
When the shine was still bright enough that we wanted a life together
When we got married and you moved in

Shattered Visions
Oh the Innocence
That laugh, that wild howling in the throat of the child,
Unseen fingers scramble for the last thread of light
Here, the angels are naked,
no wings to catch their fall.
The river splits,
splashes,
and chaos is born
from the lips of the unholy, the pure.
There be our Divinity
slips beneath the skin like rust on gold—
a fractured god,
broken in pieces,
spilled across the morning,
the moon forgets its name.
Prophecies?
Laughing in the dust,
twisted and torn,
