Adookorn Auaduma Poems
seasons and time have quills of bird
from far off
soar over cerulean void
in thin,
...
the pale saga of numb nature --
an aged witch on street of emotion
serve me her cup of wander wine
distill in lethal pot
...
my mother a candle flame
hard
for weeny lad to prod in windstorm
lay in a divan bed
...
Adookorn Auaduma Biography
I was born October 22nd 1963 to a single mother at Norkwiri Boue Ogoni of the Niger Delta in Nigeria. Her death during the second year of my secondary school ended my education. I had my poetic inspiration in a dream where a 14 lines poem was written for me to memorise. I was skeptical at first but my love for nature and the political development in my country spurred me to writing poetry. I am married.No child! Presently I run my personal business for a living.)
The Best Poem Of Adookorn Auaduma
A Quarrel
embroidery
of the tongue
plait spider web
with ribbon of words
prune wool grass
with autumn
fingers of despisal
spread
wool in the air
spew charcoal fire
ember
smoulder
glow and flare
set the sky ablaze
thunder beat drums of war
stars run pell-mell
dance
crocodile dance
moon
and sun take refuge
in the cloud
confusion rent wand
conduct
a choir of gossip
stars distance themselves
moon
and sun collide
fall
fall
and do not rise!
