Elorm Dogbo Poems

The year end though
And I am drown in despairI know it is November
It will soon be December
Oh my brother
...

i am always seen
as in any Shakespearan scene
writing about my love.
...

if i become a fool,
it is one of the ways
that my feelings
can be expaciated.
...

May I be a poet
To write you these words,
My love.
In the elegiac part
...

It takes stages
And sometimes ages
For things to be done
...

I once saw a dark skinned woman.
Her eyes were on no one
But the baby she had given
A piggy-back ride
...

Soon after the morn
That I was born
I was taught
To give up not.
...

Though sometimes I think
That the best is what I have now,
Maybe it may not even be good
As I move into the future
...

See you soon Dear Suzzy
As well as any celebrity
I have known
Death has shown
...

In my black home
Sometimes the opposite skin
Is perceived to be supreme
Even than our kin.
