A BIT OF ME

A BIT OF ME
I've got a clean face, yet kept a rusting one
I've carved shoes that call on heaven
To lessen my turmoiled havens
Enchanting aura I carry around
Like hawkers great deal of goods
I know, you all wish to be me
I know you wish to stay around
me.. If not with me
Perhaps, wallowing in laxities of time
Emerged to be reason behind my enchantment
Tumultuous points I've stamped
Gave me the most fancied shoes
You can barely differentiate between
Sun's hotness and my head
Can you relate to my rusting face now?
I don't care what you label this
Whether tale, story, prose or even poetry
What you name it connotes nothing
Likewise, bail me not from what, oh!
who I am!
But like you got me through in joy
You've not seen a tad sorrow around
Like I rightly said.. I wallow in God's laxities
Only, if He never want me on till now
Will He live to see me leave on like this

I'M A LONE NINGER

I'M A LONE NINGER I saddled my cradle in a lone way Yet, comfort zone seeks I My beddings laid fallow on bed My rail wallowed without trails Wherefore do my pain born from?  ... Perhaps, a vessel channelled me on Back on track race, motive to trace My ancestral origin behead nowhere For I lost grand and ground of care Yet, cracks and strokes at befitting future ... The fight fought, such beyond sought Presumably, pre-seeable; seen before then Now my heart heralds soothing breeze Without hope from hopeful points Yet, my bones wax stronger to life ... My bond, my half; mentored mine in me My origin stimulated independence My ancestors simulated I, such to grow For my (he)arts are borne of hatred My heart burns, born of confusion ©Tex (2017)

DISCORD IN OUR CORD

DISCORD IN OUR CORD On this day 1960, our freedom became free; Our rights became encapsulated, rights reserved. In sorrow we laugh; in poverty we ravel Of whose opinion was this idea; whose idea was this coined? Our well arranged room is visibly scattered, Box of books shattered; shelves lack notable stands. Yet, trolls of woes made in alarming tones ... This is our nation, like strangers we live therein. In our fathers land we were proclaimed bastards. Our rights dwindling as brain deteriorates. Yet! Giants we boast we are; of great intellects we suppose, Bopping on foreign materials as our sole hope. We're arm-ful, yet arm-less with vain-ful hope Like daunted sodiers in repeated failed wars ... Independence we celebrate; in-dependant we wallow. Like withering flower we derail; dryness obvious. A day to bulge woes; a day to celebrate. A day to ponder, meditate; to savage fresh fruits. Emerged a fixed day for undefined chaos, All in the name of freedom; we wra...
