Mtumia

Ulezi,
Mimi siuwezi,
Kisa, wema hautengenezi,
Uovu haupunguzi,
Umezidi ubazazi,
Kukiri ya upuzi,
Si jana wala juzi,
Hayo ndiyo yako makaazi,
Kashindwa wako mzazi,
Aliye na zaidi mapenzi,
Nimefanya upelelezi,
Sitopata mageuzi,
Ndio maana siyaulizi,
Siniteue kwenye hii kazi,
Nina zangu pingamizi,
Siifanyi hata kwa hirizi,
Unayo mwenyewe mageuzi,
Fanya hima upekuzi,
Mtumia ulile hilo andazi!

I HAD A FRIEND

I had a friend who is now no more, take a look at da mirror dis friendship has gone raw, am filled wit anticipation to find out what happened to the cupid's bow, baby i tumbled down and u looked at me and left without makin a sound dis tym round, i jus hop dat doz u tru to r nt js freak in de ass but fund ur pass, remember da world out thea aint college!

Whats life then

Whats life then.. Without a selfish friend who eats all the minced meat alone that was supposed to serve as lunch for the both of you, a friend who refuses to fetch water for you just because you did not prepare them for such a task,how on earth were you expected to know if you were going to get sick? A friend who expects to be treated in a certain manner or for you to put up with their annoying crapy behaviours which they themselves can never put up with, a friend who wants yot to go the extra mile to make ends meat for them but that for them is a not go zone, seriously life would be boring because there is fun in having all these friends especially when its your turn to pay them back being the bitch you are! Y'all in trouble!

How dare i walk away

How dare i walk away from my preety smile with my awesome dimple, from the awesome dream of being an independent educated intellect with a good life i can be proud to call my own, from a beautiful family that God blessed me with, from the awesome friends who help me define good and evil in different shapes and sizes, from my comfort zone that allows me to take all responsibilities and fall in love with each and everyone of them. How dare i walk away!

its beauty

i smile,
am happy,
am in love,
in love with someone who loves unconditionally,
be i a beggar or an expensive merchandise,
A silly pimple or an awesome dimple,
the old, immediate or old me,
in the right mind set or insane,
strong or vulnerable,
and that is no one else by me,
just me.

its unfortunate but true

Honor wears different coats to different eyes, what you define it does not necessarily what i define but the most honorable is the one who does right by it. Each of us is determined by this great gesture of using honor with the right moves. It takes great courage to meet honor half way, and bring with you countless honors. We go wrong when we fight evil with evil, it takes time to understand, accept and embrace the right honor. It is a slow and open-minded transition. The quiet past is inadequate to the noisy present, especially when the difficulty that had piled up has been dealt with. We must rise up to the occasion and since the case is now new, we must think anew and act anew. But us humans violate the laws of God and expect to go unpunished. We are all damage but how we deal with our damage is what makes God happy or mad with us. So you decide, God's both books have unfilled pages, its your pick against mine.

NEGATIVITY

An addiction that loiters around every soul,

As good, it reproduces when given a spotlight,

Natives who venture in it naturally,

Have a near to the ground sense of worth,

An effortless double of that mind-set,

Improper thoughts that sink you,

The individual is given a drastic surpassing,

It can only nourish on itself,

Thin-skinned characters are easily persecuted for they lack a lock,

Destructiveness that mutes, the "get-up-and-go" call,

A figment of your imagination shaped by the narrow mind to shield itself,

Ends up being as pricey as Prada,

Schemes to create an academy of its kind, an extension of itself,

Not all dignitaries yearn for a place in this "Harvard wanna-be",

You forget, everyone can find fault, few can do better,

Membership and subscription for the optimistic are on the house,

So far no complaints, just praise and satisfied members,

Care to share positivity and be a good activist?

For tales have been told, but never for pessimism,

Negativity never won any battle.

MASHAIRI NILIYASIKIA KWA MAMA SHAMBA

Juma wenda shamba,
Zawadi ziwapi?
Nisalimia Hafidhi na mama na mke wangu,
Kufungwa miaka mithano,
Ndio majaaliwa yangu,

Zeze lalia,
Mwakilingo kamwambia Marere,
Hii ndio hali ya dunia,
Zeze lalia, Zeze,
Kilingeni hakulii zeze,
Lakini mwaka huu litalia,

Kilichompata ngwena na kiboko yumo,
Ukithaka koti kubwa, mkamba na Selemani,
Perera peana uwanja,
Kwaja warembo wa shani.

Mlimwengu

Nilikukosea tangu naota matiti,
Umejitweka mpaka nimekuwa maiti,

Kilio chako kisipaze sauti,
Kwa kuona yangu mauti,

Kunisamehe hudhubuti,
Maishani mwako umenipiga buti,

Lakini kwa Mungu madhubuti,
Ila kwako kizungumkuti.

SINCE THEY DON'T READ IT, I GET TO WRITE IT

Forgive me my friends for to err is human,

And let you not forget that a guilty conscience needs no accuser my men,

In case you read this let forgiveness be addressed,

After all a fault confessed is half redressed,

Am short and am here for the tall,

You are short, so are short for my goal,

I fell in love with a silent man, always thought he was listening,

After he got married, i saw the world grinning,

My friend asked me for my tops in exchange for her skinny jeans,

I said no and that was the beginning of the bee-ouch sins,

Hey your Dean called,

She said they needed you for their last idiot just sold,

Heard they are the first to release the movie and i saw the premiere,

"When silly and stupid was king", where two old age fools show their trivia,

One calls the common man, his electorate, chicken poop,

The other complains about the carpet with no designed loop,

Meanwhile voters were vacated from their polling stations,

Oops! They forgot Hitler was sober and so were his sanctions.

MY GREAT POLITICIAN'S DOWNFALL

Lights, camera, action and you were my role model,
A man honored by the common mwananchi,
A man given face-lift by high regard,
But those days are now gone deceased,

You changed a miss we expected of you is now no more,
As a leader what we expected of you is now no more,
You stood but for personal value,
We no longer esteem you nor rely on you for anything,

My praise is no more at length,
As you proved ill to be stronger than strength,
Surely some men are wise and some are otherwise,
One sooner fell than rose but you still compromised,

Am sure if your likes were swept dry,
You'd utter, 'never say die! Up man and try',
But your efforts were shuttered down and you never did pry,
And guess why, you found yourself in a deep fry,

Though your race stands firm in prosperity,
Showcasing your culture with immunity,
You overlook the common man's ridicule on your dignity,
And you are still on the run for the city.

GET AWAY FROM ME

Why do you shatter my dreams?

You abused me and i left you in beams,

Can't you find a little room and place me?

Free from you is all i want to be,

When you loved me i was no witch,

But today you give my role a switch?

That's fine for i just want to open my eyes without fear,

They are wide open but allow the passing of a spear,

Severe my soul with paralysis,

Nobody knows to what extent i fear the demon of Isis,

I always console myself that i was down with my last cry,

But you line up the others as you pass by,

You need to stop loitering in my space,

Let me dry my eyes and allow my heart not to pace,

Untangle it and reduce the rate of knots,

I keep seeing how your soul with cruelty rots,

Am i a threat to your life?

That shouldn't be for you were the one who threw the knife,

All your actions had price tags,

Why then do you now walk with eye bags?

Can i ask if you have sleepless nights?

Or is it that you and your heartless self have some catching up on your domestic fights?

A LETTER TO THE ONE WHO HATES ME

I write this neither with scorn nor regret but with shock,

You were once registered to me as an archangel
,
And sadly enough knew that i perceived you so,

Speculation says appearance can be deceptive,

Time was not on my side for eventually you defected,

Never had i seen a theatre of cruelty,

The one i met is not the one i see today,

Who are you and where did you come from?

You calculatively chose to hate me,

Shock on me, I had never experienced such a vile person ever,

Biting and drowning your soul in fresh spite,

Your voice summoned the bitterness in you,

Pure malice that was tangible but had no background,

At least not to me for we shared no past,

I thought to myself, i must have exceeded Bush,

He carries with him a world's hate, but i outdone him,

The only difference is that my success was brought by one single person,

Sadly though, this victory is not something am proud of,

For whatever i did, for sure exceeded my normalcy,

I had no vision of my invisible mistakes,

I ask you the nth time, what wrong did i do you?

The great wrong that created the monster in you today,

It not only scares me but also those who took you for a friend,

What i did must have had a great impact on you,

For those around you say that you are not yourself,

Yet you have no followers in this quest,

What do you gain apart from hate?

I write this letter to apologize for whatever wrong i have done,

I will sanction none to slender my character by building hate in me,

Am sorry i provoked you intensely and for future,

I would ask you that for the sake of everyone in this world, me aside,

Just confront me and lay your hurt feelings,

So that i change, for we believe in change, YES WE CAN,

Am sure it will make the world a better place especially with me in it.

Yours sincerely,
the hated.
Am sure it

AM DIRTY NOW

So Mr. Whoever, you whom i thought infallible,
Miss Me, whom i thought was impregnable,
You had to set the record that the grass was truly greener,
You not only dirtified my outer but also my inner,
Surprise! Am now dirty...

The kind of dirt "my friend", no detergent can remove,
Tried soaking me for a fortnight but surely it wasn't the best move,
Dozed off in the hot shower,
But it was a waste of every hour,
It already dawned, am dirty now...

No penalty can be given to a gentle turtle dove like you,
Since i had society has a thing for you like brew,
You diseased my healthy May and brought along June,
My bad, did i just term you a bright buffoon?
You think? Am now dirty...

But a piece of advice though, believe me you need out,
You don't want to the sedatives to bout,
I beseech you Mr. Whoever, you did a good job turning me into a vengeful psycho,
Run while you can, for i will do you what was done unto Steve Biko,
Tada! My virgin soil is now dirty!

WHY I DASH

Am excellent at sprinting,
Going missing from my troubles,
When concerns are many to decipher,
I leave the ones i love,

Steer clear of ache on hand,
I pace on, unaided with my smashed up essence,
How do i let my adored lot in life my visions?
I put my core on their reliance,

They are left with validations and i with tribulations,
The actuality stands; I am worn to shreds beyond recognition,
Insight is bail, nonetheless tender,
You think day is costly, try night,

So i dash, dash absent from my dove,
Distant, both my fondness, and me,
With acceptance i end up victor,
But reminiscences hang around even outside town.

YOU

You are a bed of roses,

My lap of luxury,

You are the incense bearer,

My sun at noonday,

You are a concerted piece,

My first blush love,

You are my field of inquiry,

My only right scent,

You are never a shadow of doubt,

My uppermost in my thoughts,

You are the wise one in my generation,

My sum and substance,

My stage whisper,

With you my love nothing is a miss.

WHY ARE WE AMUSED

We express amusement, and what are we amused by,

Our peers in tears, perhaps?

The world in this day and age, short of true hilarity,

Am amazed at how mankind evolves in its transformation,

Transform not for the paramount but for the pits,

Gratitude, genuine love, positive reception and other good,

Have all lost their sense and have been swapped,

And yet they ask you to suck it up and live,

Sad that those who mean the world to you support this,

And we all know why, they are the sprite's activists,

What do we smirk about when others suffer?

Though ire never took us to heaven i bet care stands a chance,

And if its their turn they come with expectations,

How dare you get amused they ask,

And the pot just called the kettle black,

Forgot that to both of them the world is a difficult nut to crack.

IT WAS GOOD WHEN IT WAS

Hi, am me, and this is the deal,
I got a side line bill,
That i know not how to peel and heal,
Care to climb with me up the hill?

Hi, this is i, and yes you are worth i giving it a shot,
Sounds like a plot, though i know not how cold or hot,
Together lets both rot,
If we are both going to sink in the same boat.

The time has come and this is me tired, i can't make it,
Its early and its best i quit,
Its no longer just a bit,
Its actually growing into a pit,

Baby relax your mind,
Here is some entertainment of some kind,
Just allow these two to grind,
Take it easy though just don't break my hind,

Honey, you are one in a billion,
Damn...that feeling is a killion,
What the heck, lets give it more tries like lets say a million,
Wow...hold it...that was underestimation...the tries must amount to a trillion,

Lets take a walk Booby bear,
Society can dogmatize us to wear and tear,
But this is a problem we can share,
Before bang bang! We all down in the grave of scare,

Sorry, am busy,
See things nowadays aren't that easy,
And you are just being noisy,
Let me just log off cause you making me dizzy,

Didn't mean to upset you, my bad,
Here's some sugar, honey and peanut butter i spread on the bread,
Allow me to slip on something red,
And after you slip it off we'll be off to bed,

Sure, sure, why not,
In fact let me remove it, its indeed hot,
Is that the new fragrance you just bought,
It just made me hit jackpot,

So you got time alright,
All the zeal, you didn't even have to fight,
That was but this is not the right sight,
Then you swallowed you didn't even have to chew or bite?

Woman, am done this time,
I have said this that its not just a rhyme,
You now are game to me so get gone you gone bad lime,
You just wasting my time and dime,

Habit is a strong invisible prison,
I camped in it and now am left with a deep lesion,
As a loving heart i did not reason,
This is mine, but on its way is your season.

CORRUPTION

Analysis has Kenya into its elements,
Crumbled into dust on corruption,
Leaders play upon words,
Well-known coiners of words,
So-and-so, what's his name?
Great neologists like great philosophers,
The country is rotten as cheese,
It is drabbled in the mud,
The ills that flesh is heir to us Kenyans,
Famous of galloping consumption,
Kenya is a matyr to the disease,
The lame and the blind,
Kenya on the world sick list,
We are in declining health,
Beyond hope, on the down grade,
Second-rated and worse for wear,
They know themselves best,
Who have dealt a blow on our "Mama Land",
Rather is it fit for the waste paper basket?
The men on the wheel have made it out of repair,
The power behind the throne are far gone,
It takes nodding to its fall,
Heads i win, tails you lose,
The husband plays with marked cards,
We are lost to shame and dead to honor,
Lost to virtue without excuse,
Simply because they deviated from the line of duty,
And now we re,"rightly being served"!

MY LOVE, ITS ABSURD!

Pain is inevitable but suffering is optional,
Love is unconditional while relationships very much conditional,
You gave me the floor to declare my position,
But today you are trying to forget someone you love,
Quite impossible as trying to remember someone you never knew,
Baby, to die, our love needs a natural death,
No wonder it frantically fights in its endless breathe,
What makes you think you lose by loving?
You always lost by holding back,
You see me and you smile,
That's my loving taking you an extra mile,
Now you want to let me go,
To dedicate to holding together another institution you have no control of,
What a dramatic irony,
Trying to rob Peter to pay Paul,
You made this bed, lay in it,
Remember us and you won't quit,
Success is what we got right here,
You are a remarkable man, a blessing to the world,
My sweetest chapter,
I read it and undergo a rebirth,
My soul reminisces the normalcy in your lines,
Treading on love's enchanted ground,
Making its possibility sound,
This self-inflicted death row is just a state o mind,
Love being torn by miles and not by choice is all you find,
There is no straight line to a dream,
"i can't do it" never yet accomplished anything,
"i will try" has performed miracles,
You accepted the love you know you deserve,
You are a single candle,
Whose life will not be shortened by lighting thousands of candles,
Happiness and love never decreased by being shared,
Be a persistent winner not discouraged by a problem but challenged by it,
My heart stands here as cheerless as a grave,
It experiences emotional unrest,
But i hold in it tough love,
By your side is where it rocks best,
In this age of realism,
Baby, i legally love you,
And you honestly know it,
You passionately love all of this,
The time is now,
Live on hope and not remembrance,
And that my love is choosing excellence,
So am not going to mourn nor am i going to grieve,
This you call break up is timely,
It will be back to natural hair, after removing the weave.

I WILL WAIT FOR YOU MY LOVE

Baby i will age waiting for you,
I will welcome Grey hairs waiting for you,

Baby judgment day will find me waiting for you,
They will blow the trumpet as i wait for you,

And that is only if death won't find me waiting for you,
Cause the Angel of death will surely find me waiting for you,

It will never get late waiting for you,
It just gets early waiting for you,

God is camping with me as i wait for you,
He sent for you as we waited for you,

And He assured me that you are on your way as i wait for you,
I will wait for you.

MY FAITH

As i hold this pen,
I know that I'll have faith now and then,
For many ,may mistake me for being insane,
But its all in the name of faith as i move along this lane,

Faith, a word so simple,
Yet gives one time that is ample,
In this tough time i want it to serve as a sample,
As it is all in the name of uniting this temple,

Victory is what we should all aim for,
In search for the key to re-open this door,
And walk plainly on its floor,
But seek its merit even more,

For as long as i shall breathe and live,
I ask that serenity is part of what He will give,
All these problems to relieve,
And as each day passes, the more in faith I believe.

NEVER QUESTION LOVE

Ordeals create themselves in thee,
But it never departs me,
Its reminiscence is aside me, never away,
Dilemmas are are left swimming with a bay,

We overcrowd each other and that is silly,
But who dares questions two in love really?
Just a split second let me be insane,
For you do not have a clue on what strolls on love's lane,

Let your essence say, "i do" to my soul,
And as one we can enjoy it all,
This path where the leaves sing with us,
Birds utter their piece of music in mass,

No one has recognized its origins,
Nor have scientists known of its existence in the genes,
Let us not be inquisitive,
A sensitive peril for personality, LOVE is just being normative.

WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND

Pull the wool over my eyes today and you disregard tomorrow,
I say it, as it is for i know what i now see,
You are a drought and vice won't aid you at this hour,
Overlook your sum and substance and lessons await you.

You disappoint my soul for you had it,
One stare in your eyes and i trusted you fully,
Visage worth reclined and you too duped me,
I need age to get this in my system.

They say it happens to the best of us,
And my Mona Lisa half smile calms my nerves,
Life is like a crowd, unstructured and unpredictable,
I never reflected you mistook my virtue for idiocy.

Let me enlighten you now
Every dog has its day for sure not just somehow,
The banana has been peeled off and it has a fruit,
Your services are no longer needed, you may see yourself out!

TO MY HEART’S CONTENT

You are a ray of comfort,
Making me breathe so easily,
You are a refreshment,
Laying the flattering unction to my soul,
You are my unalloyed happiness,
Treading on enchanted ground,
You make my heart leap with joy,
Enjoying the day is long,
You are a transport of delight,
Leaving me in a blissful state,
You make me bask in the sunshine,
Entering into the spirit of fruition,
You make me thrice happy always,
Experiencing comfort, pleasure and ecstasy,
You are a river flowing with milk and honey,
Warming the cockles of the heart,
You are the roses in May,
Meeting my wishes and hitting my fancies.

A DISCOURTEOUS POLITICIAN

A democrat below the salt,
His title leaves him under false colors,
He has abundant ‘tender mercies’,
Breaks a butterfly on the wheel,
Knowingly he plants a thorn in the breast,
Puts his talent in a napkin,
He does not think small beer of himself,
He is one of the clerks of work in my motherland,
Let him compare notes for to err is human, to forgive divine,
He can snatch a verdict, be designing,
But the truth will out at some point,
Let him shake the whole country with all machineries,
But not shake off as dewdrops from a lion’s mane,
Never run away with the notion,
Nor fly in the face of facts,
We might be unknown to fame and him known,
But when the plot thickens who is the chicken?
Forebear! Let the devil take the hindmost,
Sir in high quarters, recur to the mind,
Second thoughts are the best to a practical joke,
Especially when you laugh on the wrong side of the mouth,
To us you are a skeleton in the closet,
An ill wind that blows us no good.
