Mwenyeji Spikes Poems

When ends swell and hope shines,
I know that that am from the precious wells,
It's so easy to tell with the charm hanging on my neck
Diamonds from Sierra Leone make that side shine

ABIDING IN FORGIVENESS

Abiding in forgiveness I recall,
This kind of forgiveness,
...

Body & Spirit

Without a body and soul
All that man treasures would I not wish to have
...

Look around and see, from the surface everything looks as it should
What you don't know is that the divide continues to grow
The haves will get some more from those that have not
The general order of this was pre-ordained by the law they made themselves
...

Flowers like Valentine

You always wanted to say it,
Like the epic you only read in novels
...

THE INNER VAULT

I took a vow never to look back
promised myself never to lend an eye

In the shower room this morning I found a song my heart
Humming care free the melody of a song from my childhood
This far I've come the melody wasn't lost but instead became refined
In my song every fear and worry of life was soaked in and disappeared
...

Look around and see, from the surface everything looks as it should
What you don't know is that the divide continues to grow
The haves will get some more from those that have not
The general order of this was pre-ordained by the law they made themselves
...

The hearts of men are filled with emptiness to the brim
Men will do everything to fill up the void in their heart
The treacherous schemes inside and untold desires remain
The hearts of men stand unchanged even in turbulence
...

Almost forgotten and uneasy to trace is the station tucked on the other side
Old tyres piled up to the top outside they tell stories of faraway journeys
A shallow trough with trash and spill of oil on the side
One of the attendants sits on a chair drifting in his deep reverie
...
