Niki Nicholas Nkuna Poems

So many ignoramuses dancing in the rain,
Rejoicing forever in the mistaken believe,
Manna from heaven is forever,
Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow static,
...

I entered the board room, looked at the walls
And saw a lot of 'Is' decorating the walls,
Through the eye of my mind,
Un-captivating, almost an uncared for, rose garden,
...

Driving down the road enthusiastically,
I resolved to overtake a slow moving truck,
Against the voice of the child of reason and the law,
Believing that a quick and small offence will remain small in mistake,
...

Loving your flesh and soul is the limit of my contract to you,
Your destination is out of my contract,
My contract to you, is to see you becoming mature enough,
To drive your own vehicle,
...

Ants liveth their own life,
Conditioned by their faith,
And hold on to dear pot of means,
Choices are within a cage,
...

Chains clanging, big steel, rusty gates and doors,
Slanging shut, locked,
Silence….
I resolve to live!
...

Streams of rivers depart from the land
At different points,
But from the same kind of a source,
The lakes and rain streams,
...

Like a troglodyte, the rugged man disgorged out of the pipe next to the highway bridge
He lived there with nocturnal things that frightens, befriend or kill
Nonchalant of the dangers he lived to raise the flag to passers-by
Who only notice the bad smell and see the ugly side
...

Two world wars rigged havoc to human lives
And any other thing that lived on earth and up the skies
Human casualties and deaths laid bare in our minds
We know of the planes that never returned
...

The secret heavy like a wet blanket
Bringing back cold memories that dares my pride and intelligence
Sometimes a heavy stack of bricks to wade through
If not to break them by the force of the martial arts champion
...
