samuel nze Poems

Profuse strength
Agile walk
Dressed in black
Ruthless stare
...

Lapping up with
its red tongue
and licking its
whiskers
...

Masks on the faces I see
which come to dance
They step up, step up
The oil is on canvas
...

The market is full today
Traders till dusk will stay
The buyers troop in
The area is a din
...

fine lady
make you mellow
if you continue with
your shakara
...

New money has come
We buy garri for ten kobo
We give Mary to cook it
She cooks it
...

When I was younger
I used to think
My ma would outlive a hundred
She shocked me when she
...

Jesus' was a perfect story
Granted by his father
To die for the sinner
To carry his cross.
...

Who will humble this man
That walks taller than tall
And struts like
Ramshackle in reckless abandon?
...

There is mystery in love
When I am in Africa
And the only one I love is
Out there in America
...
