Vincent Onyeche Poems

​
(Written by Onyeche Vincent Onyekachukwu and Frank Uche Okoye.)
The night was calm, and the silence was undisturbed
Yet the evil that dwelled in it remains uncured
...

​She's a wild cat from the hottest tropical part
But its heat can't compare to this African heart.

On the cain-chair beside the basketball court
...

I'm a patient pawn
Who has slayed off and on
Strived, spanked, pushed against all odds
Boiled in hell, and roasted by volcanoes
...

Before the Sun was energized,
I drove around the city with nothing in mind to find...
But stumbled upon a beauty of a kind
An untold story could tell the breeze was cold.
...

I sat in an eighteen seater bus
At the right, close to sack and box
On my gaze, staring at the skulls
Isn't life beautiful, we head as we erase
...

There's a feeling inexpressible by even a writer
Like Peter Pan, it refuse to go older
All round clock, irrespective of the weather,
I don't care, report me to my mother.
...

Hey! Let's be frank
We overlabor ourselves
To mould white clay to iron calabashes
We bake hard bread in icy hardships
...

Attimes we admire pretty people
And carve a square in a cycle hole
When all that we have is undreamt
And the tunnels, we pass has no end
...

Ring me a bell,
Alarming, heats and sulfur of hell
Alarming from people that fell
Alarming bad storylines for a tell.
...

The entrance to success was by long distance travels
Hunger, tasty tongues of no sweet but bitter kola nuts
Traditionalists knows its value, hence may crack jokes with it.
...
