Emmanuel Acheampong Poems
They come with their caltrops;
To destroy the effigies bearing their names:
Kings of old on caparisoned horses
Long dead, grey, and lying in our monuments.
...
This is your infinite ode
reflecting only this moment;
the lightheaded muse of my worn-out pride
living under my unwell shelter,
...
Over the edges of a dress I sew
And the fold in its gathers fit
With the purls ready to go
So I wrap around and around until I sit
...

The Best Poem Of Emmanuel Acheampong
Three Pithoi From Shangri-La
They come with their caltrops;
To destroy the effigies bearing their names:
Kings of old on caparisoned horses
Long dead, grey, and lying in our monuments.
They come in torn flesh of wreaths
Bringing a lunge of coldness of the water
And carrying the curses of the graven image of God
Through earth-like elements of ending creation.
Two on the hansom; the Sons
And one on the lonesome; the Father.
They have come to invade the ambience.
Three kings past of our world
Come on a perilous visit.
So may I debar the end of the day.
For the City of Demons was not built in the east;
But in this age of the Western Sun
Where their morning tears from preceding night
Will only keep them to their pithoi
Which are the only clean objects left
In the sordid and unpromised house of Pandora.
