i can hum the cricket's way
spin the fly's way
grunt like a pig
babble like a babe
...

The king of the night
has refused to smile at me
with bile and pain
i crawl to my fur
...

I've seen day
ride on a supersonic jet
night, roll by
and minutes, like tide against ship
...

As day begin to gently
ride away on a cloud
and the sun
going to rest
...

you have refused to die
you cannot be killed
like fire refusing to
yield the call of waters
...

life is a battle
give me a cattle
as we travel
let us rattle
...

God help me to find you when i can't see you
To find strenght and solace in ur word
To feel you when am all alone
To have your love when all i have is gone
...

I wish you will be there for me always
giving me a shoulder to lean on
a chest to cry on
a face to look up to
...

i have placed the pot of excuse
on the fire set by inadequacies
let men add their bits
and chuncks of faults
...

that offer i refused
to accept
and this sudden discovery
of acceptance
...

hunted by a past which was
not mine
scarring the future i
look forward to
...

Use to whisper
my love for you
to the firmament
but it cost me so much
...

We've waited so long for a voice from Jerusalem Voices came from Egypt and Babylon followed by great Lamentation from Ramah
Alas! she could not comfort them

Waiting for the day the bitter-kola will taste sweet
...

that hour
i heard you talk
and saw you walk
i could not decipher
...

the lion and the hen cannot
cohabit in the same hut
dinning from the same pot
and snore on the same spot
...

this tears that is flowing
forth
was my passion
the only reason i've to die
...
