Apocalypse

When you peel off your memories__

From my heart, it bled helplessly to the centre of the earth!

When you burnt your image,

That I carefully saved in the apple of my eye,

It’s flown into the unknown darkness of the Canadian valley!

When you crush the melody of your name__

From the curve of my lips, it spilled accidentally into the vortex of Red Sea!

When you crumble my thoughts, wither my compassion,

Make me stifled, subdued and half dead,

I disappear into apocalypse to intimidate the world!

Wings Unclipped

I saw a sparrow, walking near the pond

I wonder how she is so fond__

Of Preening herself! She loves every feather

Of her tiny wings and preened to get ready to fly further.

She flew high in a moment and came down again__

Watching that I generously offered some grain!

She picked it quickly like a peasant woman in a harvested field and __

When I tried to catch her, she flew away leaving my favour behind!

Next to the Wall

“Let the light be turn off
Till the light in me is put off”
For I would be unknown once
In this darkness before the dangers pounce!

For I was born unknown
And death, the life’s canon!
I would live and die forlorn
I sob for I leave the world alone!

My pain is as deep as the anguish_
Of my eyes but too brutal the love--
This world has shown, poisonous as asps__
And destructive is its move

As the world suffocates in void
Dies in separation after my fall
For I hope the better life next to the wall
I welcome the death that invades… pain to avoid?

Crushed in Spirits

I meditate much of the night,

I sleep and fail to see your angels in the day light.

I close my eyes and never move,

I neglect your children looking for love!

I searched for you in the temple of God,

I notice not, your shadow in the hearts of those crushed!

I bathed in clear waters to reach heaven

Of lately, I found the ponds of your tears in the lands forsaken!!

I vainly searched for your love in the skies above

But I failed to notice that my tears have already honored your feet__

In the dust, where they always walk among the poorest

Father! to thy "LOVE" i bow!!!

A bunch of your thoughts bloom every day…

A bunch of your thoughts bloom every day__
In the vase of my heart before the sun’s ray__
Falls. How sweet to know that there is someone for me?
Sweeter when it is none other than you!

A spark of delight to see you out of my zest
As if I stepped into a land knows no caste
Devoted never less than a feminine Igbo to Christ
My mission always runs towards a socialist.

No success for the our zeal around
A wish to mold__
The society to live and die not as chauvinistic__
Though Long ago we were stigmatized quixotic!

Stays back at home, but no venture
Life is Stoical, for our love has no future
Says no place in grass but in cloud nine
I live in death for I trust in Heaven!

Ocean

So short is the life to love you long.

So light are the words to express the pain__

Of heart in separation!

So weak are the winds of joy to pull out__

My deep sunken heart from the ocean of melancholy!

Body and Soul

I dreamt of it that landed me into the garden of smiles
I ran miles
To escape the body
Ever since it was just broken bones and scattered peaces of flesh
I flew into the skies where those quiet birds fly
Happy would be my soul for we left “that” body behind
I just turned towards my “soul” to say that ‘everything will be fine now!’
But there was no soul, only minced meat!

Pain for Change

So lonely and abysmally dismal
Grotesque is the postmodern personality
No love for the humanity
And live virtual

Let it be short and we meet in heaven—
As I fear the long life
The other world, I believe, there be no strife--
Between the continents and cultures in vain

Let the human live with human
Not the poor by adulation and the rich by fraudulence
The irrevocable mistake of the creation has a solution
I believe not in here but somewhere unseen

I invite the apocalypse that terrifies—
The earth to engender the peace
Innocuous be the other world with grace
All those exploited, it fortifies.

Earth endures all that hostility
As a mother endures the pain of episiotomy
We shall give way to the change of possibility--
To await redemption for the suffering humanity!

The Unborn

I remember no joy of my child

All behind the shelves of guilt

Suffocates in a dreary day dream

Thoughts were heaped into the elegiac stream!

I give no birth to my child__

For she remains in my womb forever

I wish never should she suffer the worldly intricacies

For I love her most and allow her not to cloister!

Estranged in dismal sunrises__

Though she always fights the premises__

Of pain

Let her sleep in my womb unaware and unborn!

Distortion of the World

Is writing celestial? I wonder! Though is of world,
Knows no decay as the kingdom of Christ!
Full of assurance of future__
As the beauty of your unripe breasts,
Dismantles the bricks of the each structure of the world
To immerse in your womb to kill the chronic distortion of human passions.


Can’t I be juxtaposed with you? My love!
My womanly life had ceased our union forever?
The world suffocates the human with cluttered orders.
Rabbi’s teachings are lethal poison to the tender heart of yours
Go not away from me, you my queen! Make me your mistress__
Of love before the civilizations bound to obey.


Know the drawn periphery to our thinking; control over the mind’s travel,
Destroyed the human in human as the blood of Calvary effaced the sin!
If earth is not too broken and divided massively
If these chains are not entwined your mind or
If this moment is the last before the apocalypse,
We would have unfurled the banner of triumphant love!!!

The Epitaph

At least when the epitaph of my stone
Feels the ray of your unsealed "light"
Even the hollow of my cracked bone
Would thaw and tear to give you warmth!
