With sustenance and covering
With these shall we be content

Sustenance of healthful chews
Of food
Of words
Of different outlooks
Varying in views...

With love
be our cloak
Shall it shield us
From deceit and lies
And all related ties


.
We feed on the holy
Immunity from within
We are cloaked wholly
Protection without.

Count your blessings silently
Count them aloud...

Haunting wakes
Stiff joints
Pulses race
Pressure points
...
Sands of time
Empties and counts
Preserve and guard them:
The vulnerable
Heart and Mind

Its one of those days

Where we,

Weave in-between
Dodge raindrops
Make our mark
Create a scene...

Its one of those nights

Where

Polars are checked
Horses crawl
Umber invites
Truthful lies are kept...

She pouts!

That can't be right.


Her fairness still glows
Her youth's source- Jah knows
And yet, at this age
I still can't figure what's wrong

She still pouts

Her expression is mirrored by mine

'I am jealous o', she quips.

Iya mi...

I smile and hold her tight in my grip.

All I have is the present
Jah help make this one count

I pout

Please.

You know, I could make a whole lot from suing.
Whoever put my work up without permission should be ready to face the consequences.

Behind some goddess ever known
Behind every lie exchanged for truth
Behind some tale ever told

You...

Dare place me in a portrait

You...

Obscure reality

You...

Made me feel...

Break that jinx
That got you inna fix
Yank that chain

Give yourself brain
The one thing
Earnestly searched for,
Seems out of reach...

May you have peace
May your wealth be rest of mind
May you still believe
It will be alright

If Yaba has a left
Complement with a right

I would prefer Yaba centre
Where I can watch with wonders
all things that are happening, my sister.

Here to vaunt
about life's Jaunt
For she is a blond:

Infront to pull some stunts
Blunt Stunts
As I confront and taunt uncharted terrains
Daunt days gaunt fears
Lead Luv ,spread light
Marvel men
I am but a well of wonders

If u may
Flaunt me
For words hunt me

My Quite Quill

In a world where you cease to exist

I'll run
I'll be hung
Bask in sun
Strings across my digits
Acoustics sprung.

Living is where we belong.
Have patience.
When you wake
We'll sing that song

But now
I mark this day
With beloved friends
Dear hearts of the quill

Let us throng
Let's march on.
Stronger today
Stronger than yesterday.

Shalom!

Omae...

Izuna's big bro
I shouldn't loathe you so much
But I have to let you know. 
Even for you,
That was low.

Omae...

The best part of you
Is making Hashi spill his guts
Right in front of his kin
Right after you've lost

Omae...

You had his trust
You have the guts
He even admits
To carve your sorry face
As a bust

Omae...

Your food
Is bloodlust
No other passion
Comes close
To skewing flesh as guts

Omae...

You... idjit...

Your way of reproduction
Is banned in all regions
Save yours .
Cloning your gods
And wedding the sword

Omae...

The world is sufficient
For everyone's need
Not greed
You may own the earth
Until ALL you own
Is Earth...
And she is spared
From bearing your seed.

Omae...

Name tastes foul
Sockets roll
With stolen bloody marbles
Gaze records in
Armour keeps out

Omae...

Unnatural Will
Uncanny Power

A sight worth beholding
Your battle speeches
Are laden with bait
Your end is golden

Mad of the Ara.
It's worth the wait.

Twisting,
Whining....
Writhing,
Crying...

Painful tugs, Murmurs of sympathy..
Finished art, Borne of agony...
Therein dangles ropes on display
All of mixed hues and twisted shades. .

Behold:
The Million and one braid .

From the depths of sacred texts
Rise the 6 with hacking tools of gore
Seekers of the unmarked
Its a bloodfest galore!
Leave the ones marked for survival
As signified by groans and sighs
We relish the order of our arrival
With gut-curdling warcries!

Soundtracks to my ears!
As ploughs cleave through bodies
No compassion
We're deaf and blind to unmarked nobodies

We're Special Operatives
According to Ezekiel's Account
Unmarked souls- aliens or natives
Add to Our Blood Count

You've been warned
We hack ALL not marked by

The Secretary of the Inkhorn.








Eze. 9:1-11

...Oh 'Tachi
What did they make you do...?

Were you just a myth?
His fictional creation?

Sacrifices,
For the good of your clan ?
For the good of your village ?
For the good of your nation ?

Oh 'Tachi
Your hands...

Will they ever be supple and white
Like the artist you were
To paint your dreams
Other than shades of grey ?

Will your soul be brought back
To embrace life once again
To feel once again
To love once again ?

Oh 'Tachi
Your brother...

Your Father
Your own Mother...

Red.
All I see is red.

Red mingled with tears.

Your mind's blank
Soul is numb
Heart is seared

Oh 'Tachi

What was lost that day?
Apart from a sea of scarlet?

Can you remember?


'Tachi...?

Trained to cook,
Went to school
Yet burnt the pepper soup

~Ye...~

Raised as royalty
Cultured as pearls
Yet swears bluntly

Ye.

Her first kiss
Be the sunset
Because He missed

Ye

Thé water breaks
Sky becomes earth
She drags you
As she gives birth

Ye!

Arcade

The flavor of
Cinnamon bark,
The scent of
Rose petals,
The healing of
Sorrel leaves...

Is unlike reality of
Resin hard,
Electrum metal,
And coral beads...

Lord showed me this
Was embraced in it
Even embalmed in it...

So why won’t I
Follow the other one?
Not you,
You, whom I used to love.

Do you care?
You don’t even share...
Even your thoughts
Are accessed denied

So when romance plays,
I out hiss a snake...
For the refund not paid
And tears crystallized

For a true love
Gone bad,
Counterfeit,
Fake.
