Desert
(Poesía)
17-04-2007
by Manny Maurice Ekanem
Chamfered feet
Leaden legs
Weary eyes
Famished wrecks
Dusty skin
Parching throats
Dirty nails
Desperate blokes
Drifting moist
Distal trees
Spied afar
Oasis
Eager lunge
Fleeting foot
Straining cords
Tear a hoot
Mammoth...

Sweet Suffering
(Poesía)
17-04-2007
by Manny Maurice Ekanem
SWEET SUFFERING
Bear down on me, Suffering sweet
Teach me pleasures of defeat
Draw me through the grille of pain
That I may price the grace of gain
Stab me, gore me in the back
Shackle me with chains of lack
Stall me, all deferred plans...

by Manny Maurice Ekanem

Why does he behold
The path neurotic
By being besotted
With literary
Soliloquy?
Perhaps ‘tis madness
Demented sadness
Or that he treasures...
Via Aba
(Poesía)

by Manny Maurice Ekanem
VIA ABA
Past monuments of rot
Rolling thoughts,
Errant flotsam
Amidst tsunamis of nausea
Streams of sapping heat
Bids embrace market malodor
Affliction confetti

Wake-up Call
(Poesía)
4-11-2007
by Manny Maurice Ekanem
WAKE-UP CALL

It pecks apart a warming crack
Into a room cocooned in black
‘Ere flooding in...
