Sekyewa Godfrey Poems

Whispers of the Moon.

Daylight joyfully brags by
Scudding along the mute sky
...

Cruel Modernity

Dear country man,
Teach me the secret to the new life.
...

MEN IN MASKS

They come in tattered penury
And preached salvation to our desperate souls.
...

I Met a Woman

At the well,
I met a woman this morning.
...

Calm Down Father.

I have heard father,
The distant toll of church bells.
...

Upon That River.

By that Riverside,
I met her lonely and depressed,
...

Tears of Widowhood.

Alone in the vast wilderness
On a misty morning though
...

Weep Not Peasant.

The Scavengers have maliciously
Grabbed the flesh
...

REIGN OF THE GUNS
In our Motherland. Our good Pearl that guns grip
A jolly old tortoise sits at the pinnacle of power.
We the prey of his tyranny in silence weep
...

TYRANTS! LISTEN
You bloodthirsty megalomaniacs
Epitomes of modern day egomaniacs
Listen, this beloved nation is our sole jewel.
...
