As the sun sets,
liquor drank hard
goes down tumbling
breaking through bricks and rocks
hiding shadows deep within evening lanterns

Night Caller
Awakened into life
Space boundless
Jupiter Dancing
Saturn raising red dust
Stars all clapping wishes
Burning of full energy
Reeking of vibrant peace
Distance attained
Differences only a memory
Views from a different world
Roaming plants only allowed
Far out, onto the yellow brick road
Wide awakened, still
Intact with the high plains
Down seems further beyond
Here, here
Only on these clouds
will I sing and jubilate
Nothing holding
So I must confess
Of joy and love
Yeah, nothing holding me
So I must confess
Of joy and endless love
Sand, Shells and Red Corals
Clusters of distant souls
All bright shinning
Star light years ahead
Retelling existence
Origins beyond books
Crystal bells ringing
Adding to the hue
of sparkling red
Blue waters, mesmerizing
Ancient tales told in energy
Sang by the angels of Osanouba
Holders of the beginning
Creators of the ends of time
five days of peace
out of control
out of mind
don’t matter
high in spirit
less with secrets
got my sleeves rolled
scars and blunts
scattered
paper all through the streets
got my head right
focused like a deer
head light, never missing
always stretching
forward
traits of a winner
always polished, flying
even without kiwi wings
black against the sun
one with all
Memory Bank
Tug!
Downwards
Tug!
Upwards
As I keep drawing
Draining well
Tug!
Till
I see a new sky,
bright and blue with love
Sins of our Forefathers
The words painted read betrayal
Living is the price we pay to die
Sin rubbed against the walls of the jungle
Signs our fathers left
Don’t you see the buildings falling?
Phasing into green leaves
As the sun pours the fire on earth
Shadows roam these streets
Forgetting the blood smeared on our houses
They search for the coward
who left behind hatred
The phase of our lives
Stages set in a point of solace
Cries made from water
Drank only after the party ends
Film on My Hands
Check out these lines
Criss crossed
Spider webs intersecting
Bloodless, just cuts
Wide palmed, full of scars
Memories sketched on these fingerprints
Slap twice and a picture appears
My life so far in motion reels when the wrists gets involved
No Face // Kaonashi
Who am I?
Looking at the mirror
I have no clue
Though I know me
Me as in, myself
But when I look
I see blank
Where is happiness?
I mean the pursuit of it
I am trying
Trying to find me
Though all is blank
Blank with no face
Simple Moments // Addis Ababa Origins (i)
At night
Words come out easier
Hence, let me paint a moment
A sunny afternoon, it was
Stomach rumbling
Hunger, probably
No, definitely
Fast food or local grub?
Some ribs for the soul
Not vegan?
Personally, mentally
not there yet
Sitting there outside, beneath the shade
Munching like I’d smoked some green
Maybe?
Who knows?
Only I, of course
Reeling forward
Bite after bite, cave man style
Mango juice drinking, getting full
Spring season, sprinting by
There, caught in that second,
I see her, sight her
Her scent?
Too far, she was
Her, waiting for the 67 bus
Standing there, someone I must now
Her skin furnace shining,
Her beauty diamond demanding
Goddess, she is
Go talk to her?
What?
Me?
Yes!
We, my mind replies
Two minutes of gathering courage
Cleaned my act, face wiped away cowardice
Standing up, her view in front
Gradually, I pick up pace
The closer I approach
The further back my words run away
Up close now,
Lavender, subtle scent
Natural spring, somewhere in Addis Ababa
Shea butter, her scent I mean
She turns, my heart stops
Her eyes piercing mine, curious
Words
Words, where at thou?
Staring, she keeps
You hungry? I manage
What? She stares puzzled
Jesu Christi!
Yeah lunch, you hungry? I persevere
For a second,
her face brightens
Will you go away afterwards? She asks
Yes, I will definitely go away into space after a moment with you
More sunshine, her glow brightening………
Yeah at night
These simple moments come to mind faster
Although morning comes by rising, bird whistling
Another night,
Continuation maybe?
Hey, Life
I believe my dreams are real
Real enough to see me through to my tomorrow
Stars burn up, but
My love for you refuses to quench
Hey, Life
It’s true, I was made for you
You gave me a chance
I must return your kindness
For, I know how far I have come
Though, never further than you
Hey, Life
I heard what you said:
“Open your eyes and taste me”
Yes I heard
Soothing words, baby lullabies
Hey, Life
In the skies, in the clouds
In my heart, you remain
Choices have me looking wrong
Still you refuse to let me go
Why?
Answers never needed
Hey, Life
I grew in you
A spirit in a seed
Knowledge of your ways
has me enchanted of our beginnings
Pardon my circular ways,
but your love’s shining through: so bright
My muse for the night
