Timothy Ogunsakin Poems

I gazed, through the window
Seeing the East coast meadow
Out of the horizon came forth
A yellow heavy light
...

Where do we go from here
Where do we go?
Where the future is punctured
A little ray in the tunnel
...

At my mother Knee she told
'Out of the maternal pod you came;
The joyous cry multiplied,
Excruciating barren heart banned and
...

After the inception, the snap
Seemed blur, unbiased
Indifference, his askance
Unnoticed by her stance
...

They said your journey commenced
From Osun
I’m here but you
Run in my thought.
...

I never intended to,
But you stole my eye away
What's up! I know not
Night over reading
...

A red headed mammal
But said to be a masked man.
Not a reptile
But lean on the wall with a head-tie
...

You caress on me like a mother lulling her child
Your world is sweet and mild
I'm here but
You run in my thought
...

You have betrayed us.
We fed you sweetmeats such as
We hoped awaited you on the other side
But you said No,
...
