KARMA CATCHES UP WITH ME

I had a dream tonight.

Me and Arnie himself were out in the jungle hunting for the predator. We lit a fire to attract it out of its hiding.  We ran and hid a distance away were we could watch it move towards the fire.

After some few seconds, Arnold shouted to me as he took off, “run for your life its coming this way”

I happened to have a cloak which makes  me invisible. I pulled it to cover my self. Poor Arnie didn't know that i had my secret weapon so he had to depend…

“20,000 shillings only? you peddle your body for only that? get a man and get married, you cheap slut” he said and moved on. The prostitute stayed…

We Refugees A poem by Benjamine Zephaniah

I come from a musical place

Where they shoot me for my song

And my brother has been tortured

By my brother in my land.

I come from a beautiful place

Where they hate my shade of skin

They don’t like the way I pray

And they ban free poetry.

I…

Meditation

"Meditation is not a matter of trying to achieve ecstasy, spiritual bliss, or tranquility, nor is it attempting to be a better person. It is simply the creation of a space in which we are able to expose and undo our neurotic games, our self-deceptions, our hidden fears and hopes."

That form this singular universe,

For Reason, that will never give up its dream

Of a map of the labyrinth,

For Helen’s face and the perseverance of Ulysses,

For love,…
