Michael Eziudo Poems

Before throwing in the towel and calling it quit
Have you given it a second thought, have you?
Have you searched the reasons you want to let go
And they are not birthed by temporary illusion and fear, have you?
...

If life promises to be so cruel
With you in it the heat would be cool
And the pains that may come
And the headaches that may storm
...

If I die today, will you tell them?
That I was the tree with many branches that a lot of birds perched on
That my leaves and shades covered them from the harsh and stormy weather
That my strong curves provided them the hold for their nests
...

I NEED A COMPANY

Wait o. That I am rich
That I am a poet
...

If I needed my cloths and dishes washed
I'd buy me a washing machine and dishwasher
I'd treat them like gold and polish them fine
And give them all the detergents they'd need and provide constant power too
...

Come my baby lover
Yes come to onku
My love is gone far and won't be back so far
Let us seize the time to touch the skies of udgambu
...

If you are on Facebook,
It means you are learned or at least, you can read and reason what you've read.
They are not here because they aren't learned and can't read so go tell them
...

Then, when your chamber is full of men
And your allies are they that ride in chariots
When all you wish to behold and hold on to are they
That live in trousers and boxers
...

O woman, of what use art thou
That thine need supersedeth the want for water
That thine man satisfieth not
Unless he thou ye be holden
...

The assumcious bulgy eyes she has
The morning dew I see in her eyes
The slender elegant body
Oh, a glorious ebony brown complexion that spells beauty
...
