Hebert Logerie Poems

The first time, we met; you treated me,
Like a sibling, like a brother.
It was friendship; it was love at first sight;
In a very short time, you became my faithful mentor,
...

Please stop, stop, and stop procrastinating
Next week comes the last holy day of spring
Flowers, butterflies and bees will be gone
Time is running as wild as a wild guenon
...

Encore Je Me Lèverai
(Poème « Still I Rise » écrit par Maya Angelou, traduit par Hebert Logerie)

The man inside the beast
Is our beloved President.
Yes, it is our President,
He is a man of Peace,
...

Be brave enough to walk away
And don't look back
Be brave to say goodbye
Be brave enough to go your way
...

I told you so about our current President.
He is a very special man, a man of hope
...

I saw your sons and daughters today at church;
They were carrying the holy wine, the holy bread,
The chalice, the cross and your sins.
...

Everyone agrees that war is cruel
Everyone agrees that war is suicidal
Everyone agrees that war brings mortar, anger
Hunger, pain, suffering, death, horror and terror
...

I have been hired
I have been fired
I have been rehired
I have been refired
...

It's not funny
To die for the liberty
For the freedom to speak
Freely without fears.
...
