"Take me to your leader?"
(Poetry)
24-02-2009
by Timothy G. Branfalt Sr.
Wondering why we don't see the shame-
of putting everyone else to blame.
We started equal as we will be, but think too much indifferently.
Take me to your Leader!
Tho may fall a prisoner to a mime.
And must answer him about a crime, but he...

A POEM AND A ROSE
(Poetry)
5-02-2009
by Emperor Omorogiuwa Edionseri
I guess you’ve been so many places,
But definitely, you must have seen so many faces.
In life, you’ve been through different phases,
And by now, you know the one that eases.
And the one that ceases and dizzies,
That’s why I’m sending you a...
Any other way?
(Poetry)
12-03-2009
by Timothy G. Branfalt Sr.
Why is it that we wonder-
On the same thing we ponder?
Life is not assuring,
Everything so alluring us,
To a place of which we not know.
To a place of which we find various ways to grow.
What is it within us, to hate with a vengeance?...
Bye Bye!

by Emperor Omorogiuwa Edionseri
When I came to Italy, I saw a very beautiful woman.
She was as a very kind-hearted woman,
She was such an educated woman.
She could work anything on the computer, what a woman!
That woman is you.
That very beautiful, very kind-hearted...

CRACK
a line of imperfection..
what we have known of a firm solid ground..
has never been so solid..
the firm ground beneath our feet;
like a sea of molten lava..
filtered with fragments of decays...
populated with bits of advance...
Desert
(Poetry)
17-04-2007
by Manny Maurice Ekanem
Chamfered feet
Leaden legs
Weary eyes
Famished wrecks
Dusty skin
Parching throats
Dirty nails
Desperate blokes
Drifting moist
Distal trees
Spied afar
Oasis
Eager lunge
Fleeting foot
Straining cords
Tear a hoot
Mammoth...
Ebbs of Life
(Poetry)
12-12-2006
by Ebuenyi Ikenna D.
Swift are the ebbs of life,
This journey we yearn but fear,
Its blessings and surprises,
Perchance we are at the helm,
We may sail a known course.
The anchorless ship is our fear.
But for some it doesn’t matter,
Those crowned on high by the...
Express Yourself
(Opinions)
26-08-2003
by Billy Bob
One of the biggest fears in high school is not fitting in. Most of this trepidation is because you don’t express yourself. By expressing yourself, I mean interacting with other people. Sure, it’s easy for someone to wear their trendy clothes, and...
Heart in reins
(Poetry)
23-06-2008
by Ebuenyi Ikenna D.
The maples and ferns freely glide;
Their hearts are like a medallion worn;
Sentient man is free and in chains;
His heart in the alcove lies
As the feelings wither for fear.

Language as Violence, Violence as Language: Expression of Violence as a Substitute for Communication
(Poetry)
29-05-2005
by Odimegwu Onwumere
The youths' means for communication
Ignorance is a pandemic as is HIV/AIDS.
Train him, control him and care for him.
It's disgusting to neglect his fundamental needs and pleas
It's injurious to see him grow branchless
in the norm, hale and...

Day dream.
When ever I day dream
I day dream of you.
In my secret garden I day dream, I do.
I day dream, I do, in a far away land,
embracing me tight and holding my hand.
Holding my hand and touching my face
Just you, and me in this...

Coffee Lovers
Silently,
He smiles to himself,
As he thinks of her,
Sitting alone in her kitchen,
Sipping coffee.
She thinks of him too,
But little does he know it.
Shamefully,
Both pass each other every day,
Without passing on the...
Love Changes
(Poetry)

by richa mathur
The sky embraced me, air kissed me
Earth spread soft petals all over.
When you said we were lovers forever
You made me feel special,
Distinguished me from all the others
I thought our love was meant to be
And I heard birds singing for me!...
Marriage

by Odimegwu Onwumere
Marriage
Marriage is a legal union
Between two people
(Or is there any other meaning?).
It is an institution that started in Eden
It was meant for perfect companionship
Extending to a perpetual bliss
With its lucence and dissemination...

Si chiama, forse, paura il morbo che più affligge oggi il nostro paese. Paura di non arrivare alla fine del mese, per i più, paura di perdere i propri privilegi, per i meno. E ancora: il popolo dei precari e la casta degli strapotenti sono uniti...
Sea of Pain

by Shucheesmita
I am immersed in
The sea of pain.
In this life,
I have nothing to gain.
Happiness turned its back on me,
I will never get it again.
I wonder here and there, all alone.
All the hopes are gone.
I am immersed in the sea of pain,
Have...
The Broken Flower
(Poetry)
6-12-2006
by Ronja
Watch the flower tilt its head
Tears stream down your face
You kneel upon your broken bed
And don't want to leave a trace
With caution you undo the knife
That cuts your flesh and pierces life
Drops of blood, laugh and cry,
Laugh at your...

The world of the pending
(Poetry)
19-06-2008
by Dereje Amera
Living in a world in which nothing is not nothing,
Where one starts something, but ends with many or no things,
The process is the envelope and the for title one is told anything;
No one has a clue. “It is evolutionary,”
Was the reply all...
There's so much to be said

by osewa olawale david
There's so much to be said
But little to be heard.
There's so much to be said
But little to be heard.
And the world prefers it dead
‘Cause they are being led
By the inconsiderable ones
Who aren't willing to hear
What the young ones have...
This Feeling

by amira helmy
Sitting on my bed having this feeling
Starring and unbarring as if I’m not healing
Are all these dreams real?
Will it be done and make me feel?
Or am I still living inside my imagination
Climbing hills & passing rivers of my creation
Still...

Are you one of the people who say:
I was not born to suffer,
I was not meant to suffer,
I was not meant to borrow,
I was not meant to lack?
Then you are making a grave mistake,
Because trouble and its consequences
Are meant for human...

Love is defined as having strong feelings for someone, but it's more than that.
Yes, love is a feeling, but it's an emotion, an action, and experience, a gift, an overall wonderful thing.

Weep for the Greatest Love

by Ann
I’ve killed my parents
more than once.
Several times
at least twice.
First pierce their heart
with wooden sticks.
And squeeze their bones
for crows to pick
But a miracle thing
What love is
They’re still there
Behind the...
