A new day (Poem)

August 14, 2013 · by mrkweku | in Prose Poetry | tagged Consciousness, day, poetry, prose, sun | 1 Comment

The crickets announce their cheerful notes As the night falls softly as a dream. The morning sun gently pushes its way Through a field of yawns and cloudy eyes. Sunshine slowly creeps into the world Adding magnificence to the pearls of dew strewn upon the leaves of grass. And a new day is born yet […]

Through the Looking Glass

Oy3 nokwar d3 nyankopon amma h3n enyiwa wo y3n etsikor n3 mbo oy3 de ye wh3 bia y3 fir……. I am not myself as I should be. I am less a self, but selfishly I deprive to ask myself about this discrepancy. An Identity that is meant to be in a colonized mind in me […]

There is that in me I do not know what it is But like the words read in between the lines of my palms I know it is in me   There is that in me Which awaits to be From a dream to a birth A return in a seed sown.   O sister! […]

We the Poor People (Free verse poetry)

July 24, 2013 · by mrkweku | in Prose Poetry | tagged Africa, Consciousness, inequality, poetry, poverty, prose, society | Leave a comment

“I work to live, I do not live to work” said the frail looking man. In my home, it is expensive to be poor. In my fathers house, it is very expensive to be poor.     “You can live your whole life without being fully awake” said the pallid woman. “who wants to wake […]

The Birds never stop singing (Prose Poetry)

July 21, 2013 · by mrkweku | in Prose Poetry | tagged Birds, Consciousness, poetry, prose, Songs | 1 Comment

When shadows drift on the wind I remember the day when the stars shone so bright Illuminating a path in my darkest night My steps guided by whispers of divine silence Accompanied by the unspoken heard of night birds whistling songs not of right or wrong, victory or defeat But cherubic tweets and chirps of […]

Prose Poetry ( Goodbye)

July 16, 2013 · by mrkweku | in Prose Poetry | tagged prose, Saying goodbye. goodbye. thought. hope. poetry | Leave a comment

It is hard fought in the deepest depths of our thought, at the peak of our reason It is hard fought in the deepest thought of the one thing we seek That it is not just talk when we meet When we grieve When we breathe When we leave And last words speak. July 2013 […]

Think Twice (Prose Poetry)

July 15, 2013 · by mrkweku | in Prose Poetry | tagged Consciousness, hobo, homeless, poetry, poverty, prose | Leave a comment

The light in his eyes Grow dim with every step she takes away from him. Sadness creeps into his heart silently and beads of melancholy refuse to part from his soul. He only called out for help He did not mean to scare or extort.     Lightning slices across the sky. Her hands are […]

Behind Closed Doors (Prose Poetry)

July 13, 2013 · by mrkweku | in Prose Poetry | tagged Abuse, Childhood, monsters, poetry, prose | 1 Comment

Each time Mama or Papa turns off the light and closes the door I hear hoarse whispers Blatant hisses of words I do not yet understand Slither from the closet towards my eardrums and beats them with a force that never fails to make me shudder Behind closed doors I live in dread Its no […]
