I Have Fallen

I have fallen in love
.......fallen in love with words
.........in love with words that describe a woman in beauty
...............that clothe her with respect and character.
A dime!

I have been courting
........been courting the words that make me a man
...........that make me a gentleman.
Responsible!

I have dated..
......dated the words that describe sex in a holy way
..........that give morals to love making!
Godly!

I am drowning..
......drowning deep in love, with the words that give light to darkness..
............that opens eyes even when deep in sleep!
A jump-starter!

I am in a wedding
....in a wedding, ted a knot for life with words that drive my engine
.........that give a kick to my direct injector!
My machine!

I adore...
......adore the words that make up only one Word!
..........that although 'words don't really grow on trees', this Word is a tree!
Blessings!!

Time Will Tell

There is an enemy at the gate.
There is an animal at leash
He is wild
Unpredictable, blind.
Love is a life-bound but only time will tell
When life brings new doors,
and windows and lifts,
and paths, unmarked,
or never walked in..
Only time will tell.
Every new day brings new meaning
a few definitions to the truth of time..
And the happenings whether red or blue
but the colour doesn’t really matter...
Does it, really?
..
Don’t think so but only time will tell!

Silence In Words!

I know words,
Big words,
And small words,
Long and short words,
Yes, I know words

I know words,
Words that tell a story,
Words that say sorry,
Words that made her feel sorry,
Yes, I know words

I know words,
Words that I could have used to say sorry,
Words that I could have used to tell her why,
Words that I could have used,
Yes, I know words

I know words,
Words I chose to use,
Words I wanted to use,
Words I didn’t use,
Words that failed me,
Words that chose to be silent,
And so we parted,
Amidst the silence of words.

Life

Was it here where I reached standing?
This inviting portal of delight
two tables, one full of books!
Was this the heart that opened?
Promising soft and wide richness of desire?
...A nice curtains on the door.
Was this she who called me in?
She of seductive grace beyond the others,
Grasping, bloused with our soft caressing.
Wasn’t I the man who came inside?
The peeling reflection of the focused me...
Then pocketless, drained, I!
My heart,
where art thou?

Brown Eyes

Brother, the world crumbles at the sight of you.
Resting on your handsomeness in the eyes
Oh, he’s looking inside my soul!
...Whines the rest of the all girl gang
neither of them knowing that you are engaged
Ericka, your beautiful bride to be
you open them up wider in absenture.
Every one of them with jaws dropped low
surely, you caught all of them by your brown eyes!

Let Me...

Let me make you my unicorn
A rare thing for males’ yarn
Let me walk you in the lawns of love
...Where mine memories curve
Let me shave my hair to your liking
Than risk your skiving
Let me smile in the direction of the moon
As we discover the strangers outside in
Let me surf in the waves of your perfume
Take me away to your world’s allure
Let me brew the alcohol of bliss
And ride in your sweet kiss
Let me grow inside you inside
Cry in my heart to irrigate
Just let me make you happy
And in the process be happy

In A Whisper

Of men, women and children covered in white shells in form of IDPs tents
While they r sleeping under a mountain of duvets enough to sink a dhow in Lake Victoria!
Of eight people eating form a cup,
...While they dump heap-fills of deli into their round tummies
of children playing with cholera douched water in their 'houses'
While they have highways in theirs 4 their children' big toys
Of ears deaf owing to the sound of AK 47s killing 'infidels'
while they listen to 'MJANJA' and the like, sipping beer n wine celebrating our stupidity
of living a day at a time due to lack of food
while they live large n plan to fertilize our drought-stricken land!
Of living among vigilantes and 'u-r-not-our-tribe'
while they live inside a CCTV laced electric fence with sniffer dogs around 'em.
Stop the whispers,
Raise your voices and join me in saying...
We are all Kenyans
