Niki Nicholas Nkuna Poems

They say it is noble to work for charity,
Good for those with boundless energy,
They have tails behind their backs,
Tied to boundless supply of nutrients,
...

The titanic, a marvellous dream of a life time,
Riding the crest of a wave,
The Anaconda of the sea waves,
Forever in the breeze,
...

The beginning of it all was red carpet love
Call it ‘over the heels in love and fair’ if you like
We were rose petals, wide open to generosity
The stage was set to merry make in the beauty of our love and play
...

Like a watershed crying atop a steep mountain hill
Going down by the throw of the height
Faster than the side outlets of the dome
So many of the streams seeking a side kick
...

Cold and hot winds blowing
Causing heads to grow horns
To stab nothing but to raise the flag
...

It is high time I lost my regular sleep
Elongate my thoughts to action I fear
I see the territory before me
It is vast like the Atlantic Ocean
...

So beautiful, people thought she has everything,
Highly qualified, her beauty in tandem with the sharp razor she had at school,
Cutting through grades with studious focus,
She’s the personification of a perfect life,
...

Afraid to be run over by the jeep
I ran for dear life
Fearing the monster on the wheel and the beast itself
The joy of the beast under the wheel growing with my lament
...

The good and bad old days
All trouble and dance everywhere
The authority steering the boiling porridge to quell the stinging spattering
Fire underneath conflagrating
...

Out of danger, out of sight
I’m in safe haven in heaven
In the silent tomb,
Six feet mine shaft,
...
