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.
