Black Hole Beauty (Part 3)

Open these black holes. Set light free.
Free to roam through space, constellations. The Cosmos.
When light escapes from black holes, it belongs among the stars.
 
And ain’t that such a beautiful thing?
 
At the brink of death,
We think that all life and hope has left.
But if we fight for slightly longer?
Our victory will put us amongst the stars
Stories of plight; victories of light.
 
You’re able to defy reality
Shred your black holes open
And free yourself. To become
 
Light. Exploding in the skies
 
Ain’t that just a beautiful thing?

Ain’t you just a beautiful thing?

I will be posting a video of me performing this tomorrow. Let me know how you’ve enjoyed the poem below!

Birds

Fly on like voices
Fly away, little prisoner

With all the rights in the world,
Seize freedom!
Grab its bottom and tie it to your hind leg
Let it roll and mate with your hate
Let it date. For past, present and future’s sake,
Let it bear an egg

With you.
Have sex with it,
Proclaim your love from the pulpit

And fly on, little bird.
Let smoke drift under your wings
Like wind enforcing pride in a national flag
Write liberty across the heavens until your pen sag

Beak forward, but eyes up
Wings to the side with glory descending
Fly.

You’re an angel.

Hello my fellow writers, readers, artists and adventurers! Last year, the founder of The Goodbrain project presented me with an opportunity to publish some of my poems as a book.

This book is my first published book and without further ado, I present to you: Loverboy (cover art by a friend of mine, Fahmida…Instagram: @fami__ ).

Loverboy is a 3 volume series of poems about a boy as he experience the different effects of love.

One-night Sesh

Love me until it hurts
Touch me until my skin lurks

Summon vibrations through my spine
Let me lay on you and dine

It’ll be a great moment
But, leave in the morning.

Wants

They wanted to be wise,
So we started reading books

They wanted to dance,
So we bought Michael Jackson shoes

They wanted power over literature,
So we wrote poetry

They wanted to be smart,
So we downloaded chess on our phones

They wanted to be open minded,
So our group of friends consisted of people from all around the world

They wanted warmth in their heart,
So we looked for love

They wanted to experience wonder,
So at the wake of moon, we creep at the stars

They wanted revelations to the mysteries of existence,
So we read verses, and paid attention in physics class

They wanted to touch the sky,
So we bounce off of our beds, reaching, hopefully, pass roofs

They wanted to travel the world,
So we fell asleep and dreamt.

One Nation, Under God

Africa, america, art, artist, creative, love, poem, poet, poetry, USA, writer

Let me tell you about my country:

The place where kids think smoking is cool
And others get rich for acting like a fool

Where precious education is offered to kids who view it as extreme bore
And at times, nutrition goes only as far as the corner store

The place where knowledge lost its value so we only wait for fate
While talking about Africa but look at the streets and you’ll see our own begging for a plate

A country where a romantic relationship is defined by sex
And most times, companionship only goes as far as a text

We live in a society with our imaginations floating in the sky
Yet, we don’t have the will to build the wings to fly

So wake up America.
