Live Poems
Poverty as a Pandemic Pain
by Ololade Raji
Life in the hood means nothing without a livelihood as those in the hood will choose livelihoods over lives. Maybe you now know why the frenzy virus feeds on your lives through the hunger of those in the hood
But if you fear the virus and still value your life above your livelihood, then, you are not in the hood. And you better not leave those in the hood to leave the hood for food and the virus
For it is good to move their food to the hood so they remain in the hood, then, you would not need to brood over their covid moves to leave their hood
I hope you know the gloom that looms if you do not give a hoot and look beyond loots. Have I just told you how to woo those in the hood with food to stay at home?
If you do not believe that you need food to ease the pandemic pains in the hood, you would neither believe in the corona dirge for a sweet aunt nor a word from this howl

When I grab your hand
It feels like we are in another land
When you walk with me
It's like we are making new history
Just the way you are
With your eyes behind the sea
There I want to be,
To make new history.

Everything has implication.
Our intuition radius is grand.
There is always X in the equation
Which at first we cannot comprehend.
Definitional domain of brain
Is relative as Theory approves:
There is nothing it cannot obtain,
No fact there is left without proofs.
Axioms claim norms for which they stand:

High Time
by Yoko Fushigina
From everlasting times
The sinners, that we are,
Fear blowing humankind to kingdom come.
So that is why the lies,
That we derive by far,
Start fading from the seeking minds of some.
The gospel of our lives
Proclaims the rule of men.
We take what's wanted never knowing why.
