Vultures Fly
Vultures fly in perfect circles
and pretend we believe
they are white doves
bringing us peace
Foul-smelling scavengers
disguised as prominent politicians;
illiterate statesmen or authentic literati,
that never attended a single seminar
or even stepped in a University
but surely received and will show with much glee
their hard earned honorary doctorate degree

This Is Today
It is not a fable or a fairy tale,
even a child could understand my plea
that is why I speak loudly and vehemently
I am outraged to see
how those who wield power,
supported by uniforms and boots
see us as nincompoops,
weaving narratives of a distorted history
as if nothing had been there
Their very accommodated stories
build paper monuments to their heroes o...

Imago Dei
Are you there?
I pray to you each and every night in despair,
Yet they remain unanswered as if you do not care.
I sink solely in my thoughts,
As heartache floods through my veins.
Suffocating and feeling distraught,
Trapped and stuck in these emotional chains.
My life has come to that of which only you can intervene.
My soul is no longer at peace (and y...

Anticlimactic
I know I traded something
A part of me
For the splendid splendour of money
I did that thing you shouldn’t do
I gave myself to him
You know, the soul
Cut a piece of myself out for him
You know, the heart
I cut a piece of myself off for him
(You know which part)
But I didn't feel a thing
I'm waiting to miss it
Miss this
Thing
I'm waiting for the pain

Wondering
I wonder now what sin is worse
As we destroy this fragile earth
Who should we condemn the most? Who curse?
The careless or he who cares not for its worth?
When we misfile our plastic waste
Do we sin more than those who double wrap;
When we buy packaged goods in daily haste
Is it our fault we fall into the plastic trap?
And when we recycle those plastic trays

What To Do After You've Participated In A Threesome
The feeling of
having just finished
a threeway
is
non-mapped islands
You are now in a bed
with two naked
bodies
that don't immediately fade
And no one
explains the common courtesy
of getting some food
After performing what's known as an
Eiffel Tower.
We throw ourselves
out to sea
With minimal knowledge
of the breeding grounds of tropical fish
