Jonathan Tafreg Poems

Bones for poor, flesh for rich
Take your water, I'm not a fish
Don't forget this in your speech
I'm still a poor man.
...

When I look upon your cheeks, when I look upon your lips,
When I look upon your hips, you're my spongy girl,
You're the only one I need, you're the only one I love,
You're the only one to marry, my spongy girl.
...

No wrong is done to one who consents,
The worst comes when you fail to confess,
For the things that one can't express,
And for the problems one can't address.
...

I remember when you told me
That you no gonna fight,
And I thought you're just
Feeling alright,
...

Do you think I'm very little man?
Wide like an ocean,
Am very busy.
...

Will you be pleased, if you swallow me?
Are you not so big to feed on me?
I'm just a little, take a look at me!
O mighty winged; have mercy on me.
...

How can you talk about the past,
And then you call it the prediction,
Don't you know the future,
I'm asking you?
...

I'm looking at you, from the Bering Sea
I'm looking at you, Mediterranean Sea
I'm looking at you, from Arabian Sea
I'm looking at you, from Caribbean Sea
...

Is she truly not your daughter?
The little one that seats by the door,
For one day she can be the doctor,
If you decide to give her some more.
...

Keep preaching your peace,
While people are fighting war,
One thing you don't understand.
...

Changing little children,
Cheating the poverty-stricken,
Mucus in the kitchen.
...

Short upstairs and short downstairs,
Short in memory and no spare.

Short in hands that gives,
...

Hello Mr. Man with a big stomach,
Are you pregnant or obesity?
Breaking wooden chairs,
Is that not too much?
...

Enlightenment is essential in overcoming
Darkness which is the most scariest and
Ugliest of all that obscures human
Character and personality whereby
...

Behold!
The purities of a mother profession.

A business just like any other,
...

If you deal with a creature,
And you dream of making best,
Do dealing alone.
...

There's a party going on,
Down the planet Earth,
A party of a wellborn,
Jesus of Nazareth.
...

You brought me in this world,
A world of billions choices,
And I found this Dreamworld,
A world of distinct voices.
...

Do you believe in male domination,
And you want to treat them,
Like their Lord?
...

Is it in the name of the devil,
You got that toilet anointed?
Is it the knowledge of the evil,
You allowed it get appointed?
...

The Best Poem Of Jonathan Tafreg

Bones For The Poor

Bones for poor, flesh for rich
Take your water, I'm not a fish
Don't forget this in your speech
I'm still a poor man.

They say we have many parks,
They say we have many trees,
They say we have many mines,
I'm still a poor man.

Children are sitting on stones,
Neither chair nor desk in schools,
And you promise better life,
I'm still a poor man.

In the North is Afro top,
In the East Erythraean Sea,
Inland we have many lakes,
I'm still a poor man.

Graduates don't have a job,
In the office all your friends,
And you want my vote again,
I'm still a poor man.

Marijuana is what you see,
But CORRUPTION down your feet,
In the school they're selling names,
I'm still a poor man.
