A little calf struggles onto its feet minutes after birth,
A young human struggles to stand a year after birth,
Such are the wonders of the earth.
As I see my daughter struggle to hold her neck up,
I feel courage rising within me high up,
I don't want to talk but I can no longer shut up,
I continue to encourage her to rise up.
Every sound she makes,
Too much energy it takes,
But it a closer step she takes,
To talking one day without mistakes.
Every morning when she opens her eyes, I'm Elated!

I Wonder Father
This poem is for my mother and my brother,
The only family that I have,
The people with whom I share family love.
In my entire life,
I never had a man to emulate,
I never had someone to look up for advice,
No one ever started telling me something with the words, "Son, one day you will..."
Nobody,
Nobody ever came to visit me to school spotting a beard and holding a newspaper,
Nobody ever told me to face this world like a man,
Mother never knew these things,
There I was,
Out in the world,
Running up and down,
Making mistakes,
That I am paying for up to now,
Because I never had a map,
I don't blame you father,
I don't hate you either,
I just wonder,
Why did you have to leave us with mother?
Would you want me to becomes a father like you?
I just wonder Father,
I really wonder.

The Punchline of Thieves
The punchline is all evident on my head,
How your blow met with my head,
It is the reason why my eye is red,
If I never got help, Now I would be dead.
It is people like you,
Who make insecurity true,
It is people like you,
Who leave us wondering what to do.
If you don't slay, you cripple,
Why don't you live your lives simple,
You children of the evil,
What do you ask innocent people?
Is it a must that you drink cheap wine?
Is it a must that you steal all the time?
Is it a must that you leave people with a PUNCHLINE?

Tears and Smiles
These tears,
These tears that well my eyes,
These tears that flow when I cry,
These tears that I shed when I am angry,
These tears that are triggered by my agony,
These tears that I shed every day,
These tears will dry one day,
These tears will be no more,
These tears will be replaced by a smile.
A smile,
A smile that will be a sign of joy,
A smile that will end my cry,
A smile that will carry away my agony,
A smile that will be on my face every day,
A smile will be on my face one day,
A smile will be all I afford and more,
A smile it will be forever.

Take Sometime
Take sometime to reflect on your life,
It's yours after all,
Take sometime to listen to others,
You too will need an ear sometime,
Take sometime to read a blog,
You will need traffic on yours,
Take sometime to comment on a status,
You also need appreciation once in a while.
Take sometime to do charity,
Its a way of appreciating what God has given you,
Take sometime to treat a lady,
You could lift up her spirits forever,
Take sometime to attend an event,
You will want people at your wedding or funeral,
Take sometime to reply a message,
You will want someone to answer when you call 911.

Visitor Who Came to Stay
You were the visitor,
Who asked for a cup of water,
You asked for a food platter,
We gave you visitor.
You slept at our place,
We are a kind race,
All people we embrace,
We gave you some space.
Days went by,
You started to lie,
You wanted to stay,
We began to pray.
You won my heart,
Now leaving was hard,
We dint want to part,
Another story starts.

Naomba Kukusalimia
Ningependa sana kukusalimia,
Hata kama ni mkono kukupungia,
Angalau nihisi umeniona,
Lakini mimi naogopa,
Vipi utanichukulia.
Labda utaniona kama,
Mmoja wa wajinga,
Wasoweza kutambua,
Salamu si chakula,
Bali ni Ishara,
Ya urafiki na heshima.
Mimi sitaki mapenzi,
Nilitupilia mbali hizo enzi,
Wacha mwingine akuenzi,
Nataka uwe rafiki.

A Toast
A toast,
To the coast,
The men in coats,
The owners of oats,
They came with boats,
To share this great toast.

To them that boast,
They eat the most,
They came composed,
To share this great toast.
A toast to all!!

Swimming
Swimming,
In a sea of naughty thoughts,
In an ocean of erotic dots,
In a river of sexy hots,
In a stream of sorts,
In a pool of tots,
In pots,
Pots of scenic bodies,
Bodies of curvy ladies,
Ladies of sexy panties,
Panties of mysteries,
Mysteries of the nights,
Nights of the lights,
Lights bright,
Only when swimming.

My Colorful Dream
I dream of a blue and violet world,
Filled with an aura of gold and green pounds,
I'd like to swim in the white ponds,
and to own a violet magic stick.
I fear the evil dark world,
The one of black and darkness surround,
The one of a red frown,
Along with a bloody crown.
When I wake up give me white coffee.

45 Dollars
I have this side hustle,
I'm only doing it today and tomorrow,
The tools I had to borrow,
I don't like working the furrow,
But it is such a sorrow,
That instructions I have to follow,
Or else in trouble I will wallow,
It's for a wage of 45 dollars.
I don't like French fries,
I also hate a spice of curries,
I would rather have noodles,
Or some milk mashed flakes,
But everyday I feed on fries,
I am living a life of wishes,
It's all I can afford nowadays,
For a wage of 45 dollars.
I would love to take her out,
Walk in the woods around and about,
Sit in the park and watch the flowers sprout,
I would love to make her shout,
While I have paid for her camel mount,
I wanted to discuss money, She asked, "What about?"
Afford all that for her......., I doubt,
For a wage of 45 DOLLARS??

I Just Thought
I just don't follow, I follow the just,
I won't die to love you, It's my love for you that will never die,
I don't hate the drink, I drink the hate away,
I can't kiss a dragon, I just drag on the kiss,
I don't like food for thought, I think for food.

Bad is Relative
There are no bad lawyers,
They are just not paid enough,
There are no bad teachers,
They were just born tough,
There are no quack doctors,
It is some bodies that are so rough.
Not every policeman is corrupt,
It depends with who you choose to give,
Not every judge is mean,
It depends with the kind of thief,
Not every boss is harsh,
It depends with your hearing and applying ability.
Not every mother is good,
There could be no female prisons,
Not every wife is faithful,
But sharing your problems halves them,
Not every child is a genius,
Offices for the genius will need cleaning.
There is not a bad poem either,
Because BAD is RELATIVE!!

Tatoo in the Eye
The saddest day of his life,
With pain sharper than a knife,
He watched his wife,
Give herself to another man,
He wanted to but he could not run,
It was too hard to discern.
Clutching onto the grill of the window,
He felt his heart sink so low,
So much that he did not know,
He watched his wife enjoy,
The man used her like his toy,
All they did to the him was annoy.
As the man squeezed her in his arms,
His spine felt shiver alarms,
He felt the sting of all the qualms,
As his wife let out a moan,
He only managed a silent painful groan,
He felt numb from his head to the zone.
The sweet words that his wife said,
The sweet nothings the man replied,
The sad fact that his marriage had died,
The actions were all etched in his brain,
He couldn't clear his thoughts train,
His mind was all wet from the sinful rain.
He wanted to shout and stop it,
But he was too weak to do it,
All he did was watch all of it,
He stood still like a fly,
He did not cry,
It felt like a TATOO IN THE EYE!

Atrocities
It is so sad,
That we disregard,
The fathers of our land,
The people who fought hard,
To redeem our land.
We have erected buildings,
On the graves of our freedom fighters,
We excavate their remains,
We leave them uncovered,
Can we get worse?
Our great grandmothers,
Who languished in prison,
The ones who bore our mothers,
By the roadside and in settler farms,
We have abandoned them.
The marshals of the time,
Have not a single dime,
They get poorer with time,
When they die,
Their souls, with pain, sublime.
They sold their small pieces of land,
Their families can't secure a grave,
They are left unclaimed in morgues,
They are disposed in a mass grave,
Buried by a government excavator.
While the remaining few limp,
With one leg since they lost the other,
Fighting for our land,
We zoom past with our sleek cars,
We cover them with clouds of dust.
Whatever happened to humanity,
Whatever happened to patriotism,
To hell with democracies,
All promises have become fallacies,
We will pay for these ATROCITIES!!

Don't Soil Yourself, Woman
From the beginning,
Eve was chosen to be man's company,
Sarah was a helper,
Of the most blessed man Abraham,
Esther saved her race,
Mary gave birth to Jesus,
All these women,
Bore seeds of greatness.
Lot's wife defied,
She solidified,
Delilah got Samson Lured,
She triggered destruction,
God blesses a woman,
Who heeds his word,
Women who want greatness,
Learn from the word.

The Sandwich Generation
The elite of the nation,
The recent conception,
The men to steer the nation,
The prime age of creation.
They have a vision,
Each in their profession,
To bridge the poverty division,
To steer the nation to fruition.
They lead congregations,
Regardless of the religions,
They have a mission,
Project development and completion.
They make rational decisions,
They have learned from the past,
They are the people to trust,
For the first world thrust.
Very humble and focused,
The young and aged are their dependants,
They know success is constant,
Because they always work hard.
It's time for The Sandwich Generation!

Words of Wisdom
Keep your doors open,
Opportunities won't have to knock,
Life is a beast,
Look for the beauty within.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Has been lying all this while,
Never jump into a sea of conclusion,
Swim by the shores until you collect enough shells of fact.

Emptiness is Form, Emptiness is Form.
Emptiness is form,
When life gets hopeless,
Many get senseless,
But that is the time,
To make juice from lime,
Surviving in nothingness,
Proves that emptiness,
Gives the best form.
Form is emptiness,
When you are clueless,
Rich and senseless,
You never have time,
When you have the form,
You have everything,
Then you lose everything,
and back to Emptiness.
Thus:
Emptiness is form and form is emptiness.

I Think I am in Love
All this twitching,
Wishful thinking,
Day dreaming,
Reminiscing,
My feelings,
My breathing,
My pacing,
Blood rushing.
My pulse is high,
My wish is sly,
My mouth dry,
My eyes cry,
Days go by,
You don't come by,
I wonder why,
Why lie?
I think,
I am weak,
I tick,
When you speak,
I freak,
Come quick,
We link,
I think,
I'm in Love!

The Love Epitaph
I can recall with a smile,
How they started out well,
Coffee dates and night outs,
The signs of love sprouts,
I attended their wedding,
Good life was just starting.
A year later,
Issues proved greater,
Than the love between them,
What had come over them?
Bad breath and affairs for the man,
Gossip and dirt for the woman.
Two years later,
It was all clear,
A decade wouldn't be over,
While they were still together,
The man was fed up,
The woman was fired up.
The woman leaked his secret,
That he made the bed wet,
The man found her red handed,
With another man in bed,
They decided to leave it at that,
Life finally put them apart.
The third year was a start,
Of living life apart,
He decided to write a book,
She also wrote a book,
Dedicated to the love they had,
They described how it went bad.
Different publishers,
Different editors,
The man finished first,
The woman was always last,
They launched on the same day,
Both books bore the title, THE LOVE EPITAPH!

The Drunken Policeman
His favorite name is--Hic,
His mother called him--Vic,
At work he is Corporal--Vic,
A number of things make him sick,
First, he thinks his wife is thick,
Second, The inspector calls him a prick,
Why don't the two ever think?
He thinks.
He works for the traffic department,
He can always sneak to the bar segment,
Too much has changed his skin pigment,
What he knows best is bad treatment,
He will issue tickets with excitement,
I wonder if he will stand his punishment,
When a victim will tell the graft department,
Will he attend his hearing with excitement?
In the evening he boasts the pub down,
None but him holds the imbibing crown,
He sits on the bar stool throne,
He can drink up to dawn,
He turns all the alcohol stones,
His jalopy of a car hits all stones,
He says it knows its way home,
From the look of things,
Both the car and the owner are on the way home,
His epitaph will be his last crown,
How about, THE DRUNKEN POLICEMAN!!

Wedding Festival
Wedding Bells,
Bigger than jingle bells,
Nice fragrance and smells,
The nice background music tells,
Two have just exchanged bands,
They have stopped being love birds,
Now they are husband and wife.
The sunlit air and the floral decoration,
The great cake with its colorful decoration,
The pretty maids and their beautiful dresses,
The beautiful women and their musical dances,
The great crowd with all the happy faces,
The bridal gown and the expensive laces,
What more could a man ask for?
Call it the wedding festival,
Where else did they come with so many cars?
Where else did we experience such hospitality?
Where else did we eat so much rice?
Hail all and salute the just married,
We are all happy and overjoyed,
For your great WEDDING FESTIVAL.
Congratulations!!

The beautiful women and their musical dances,
The great crowd with all the happy faces,
The bridal gown and the expensive laces,
What more could a man ask for?
Call it the wedding festival,
Where else did they come with so many cars?
Where else did we experience such hospitality?
Where else did we eat so much rice?
Hail all and salute the just married,
We are all happy and overjoyed,
For your great WEDDING FESTIVAL.
Congratulations!!

On Her Wedding Day
If its turquoise, please let it be,
If its royal Fuchsia, let it be,
It is her biggest day after her birthday,
It's the least you can do on her wedding day,
Making it perfect is a commandment,
She is the base of your home establishment,
The prime member of the marriage coalition,
The commissioner of the home division,
The chief of your house location.
She gives your home an identity,
Soon she will show you the power of multiply,
Many say that men don't cry,
What they don't say is that we would like to cry,
But we have to get the right shoulder,
Then we can cry a river,
Mrs. bride, the ball is on your court,
Start by relieving off his coat,
Finish by serving a great pot.
For the gentleman,
A reason to get home early,
A reason to hold the head high,
A reason to carry your shoulders high,
From that corner to that other corner,
We have been your guests today,
You have treated us to satisfaction,
We have all witnessed,
You have done it perfect.
On Her Wedding Day!
Congratulations!!

Call Me Now
It was only yesterday,
We lay on the hay,
I was loving your spray,
I enjoyed all the play,
I dint want to get home,
But eventually the time came,
You said you will call,
You said you could see my heart,
Even when we were distant,
I knew you would be calling,
I held onto my phone waiting,
Minute after minute, counting,
On my forehead, I was sweating,
On my armrest, I was tapping,
The anxiety of a hen,
Before it lays an egg.
Mid-morning and nothing yet,
My shirt is getting wet,
My anxiety comes with profuse sweat,
My handkerchief is also wet,
I just hope you did not lie,
If you don't call I'm going to die,
But what is taking you so long,
I want to have someone to belong,
Time is running out fast,
You are slowly loosing my trust,
Soon it will be noon,
I have decided to go online,
I am starting to whine,
My patience is very thin,
Now my feelings are on the line,
Don't you think it is time?
Noon came and went,
And not even a text,
I am wondering what next,
Or should I text,
I don't wanna look desperate,
Options are infinite,
But none is right,
I have lost appetite,
I can't do anything right,
A cigar is all I can light,
Even a line I can't write,
Evening is drawing closer,
Reality is getting clearer,
I am seeing a liar,
What do I do now?
If you can really see my heart, CALL ME NOW!!!

My Love Exploit
It's another dawn,
My heart is fearful,
My face is a frown,
My body is painful,
It's about last night,
You came home drunk,
You switched of the lights,
Then you started the spunk,
You called me useless,
Then you beat me senseless.
Now its morning,
I wake up wailing,
I can't stay longer,
I am getting weaker,
I am growing thinner,
I can't let you kill me,
God has plans for me,
You don't deserve me,
I can tell from the way you treat me.
You beat me everyday,
Same script different day,
I married a bully,
I don't deserve pity,
I am filled with fury,
I have to leave today,
I have had enough,
Let all my friends laugh,
I have a life to live,
Now i know this was not love,
It was a love exploit!!

Ulevi
Chupa ya pombe ifunike,
Ladha ya pombe isiishe,
Ukiitisha nyingine itingishe,
Ukiifungua itoe mvuke.
Ulevi una mawaidha,
Lakini wanyonga fedha,
Ulevi unazo fedheha,
Kama za baba kujikojolea.
Ulevi hauna heshima,
Mtoto hunywa na baba,
Wanatumia meza moja,
Waskie wakitusiana.
Ulevi utamu wa raha,
Ukizidi wakuwa karaha,
Ukijibebea wako kahaba,
Atakupora si haba.
Ulevi si wa madereva,
Isipokuwa wasoskia,
Wale kawaida hufa,
Sisi tutawazika tu!

International Love
My Kenyan love,
I have an international dream for you,
My love for you is wider than from Nairobi to Belarus,
In my heart I have more love than a European,
Don't mind the fact that I am all African,
For you I will speak all the romantic Italian,
I will even hit the standards of the Roman,
Talk of an evening dinner like that of the French,
Lacing it with wine from a cellar in Paris,
Food cooked by a chef from Rome.
If you become my one and only,
Our first destination will be Milan in Italy,
Then we could take a vacation to guinea,
Think of the two of us walking in the coast of Azerbaijan,
For you I will be brave enough to go to Afghanistan,
We can go for our honeymoon somewhere in Uzbekistan,
I will take you to the rice fields of Pakistan,
On our way home we could pass by Bujumbura,
We could go for some DJ festival in antananarivo.
Not forgetting our great motherland,
Every weekend we could do road trips to places like turkana,
Sagana and kirinyaga would be good hideouts en-route Mt. Kenya,
From the mountain to the shimba hills in taita then to lake elementaita,
From samburu to nakuru, uasin gishu to chepalungu,
From namanga to malaba, from busia to garissa, and at times to Tanzania.
My international love, let me make your life a roller coaster.
Will you be mine?

Are you a real person?
A real person swims in the intricacies of life and comes out improved,
A real person plunges into the unknowns of life and comes out famous,
A real person dives into the deeps of problems and they become solved,
A real person flies over a party of disbelief and leaves behind believers,
Real people do not wait for others to change them,
Real people are not changed by difficult situations,
Real people derive their strengths from difficulties,
Real people are capable of changing entire situations,
Real people ooze real change.

Midnight Gaze
My most recent blessing,
Has confused my brain cells,
Now I gaze at the ceiling,
A tear in my eye wells.
Tears of joy are now often,
I can no longer hide my emotions,
When she sneezes I stiffen,
I am conscious of all her motion.
A fruit of my pleasure,
A score of my love,
For me and my dear,
From God with love.
Our daughter Patricia,
An awesome bundle of amazement,
So tiny and tender,
The reason of my excitement.
I want to protect her always,
I want to watch her all the nights,
Fight away mosquito that disturbs her peace,
Ensure that tomorrow gets her in one piece.
At night she gets me insomniac,
She is my all time Craze,
I will be soon celebrating with cognac,
A toast to the cause of my MIDNIGHT GAZE.

Breast Cancer
He was out for pleasure,
Sexual as it could have been,
They had kissed like never,
Now he was jumping into the obscene.
He slid his arm into her blouse,
He cupped the warm breast,
The feeling did not arouse,
He immediately knew that she needed a test.
The lump was as that of his patient,
Some careers just follow you to your personal life,
Why was medical practice so prudent?
He did not want to break the heart of a young life.
But he was as sure as death,
The lump was that of breast cancer,
He couldn't tell Beth,
The thought gave him an ulcer.
He managed to convince her,
To go to the hospital the following day,
She thought it was a fever,
After all her boyfriend her offered to pay.
Her face was green with fear,
She never thought she could get breast cancer,
She couldn't hear what the doctor said next,
She felt she was the one to die next.
She had ignored all the scan campaigns,
Ignorance paid her back with all these pains,
Had she gone for the scan earlier,
Her breast couldn't have left her.
Six months down the line,
She can afford a smile,
And thank God for a treatment gone fine,
Make sure you too maintain your smile.
Go for a breast cancer scan.

The Connection
You are seated,
Right in-front of me,
When you passed my desk,
I couldn't help but notice,
The smell of your expensive perfume,
It made my nostrils open wider,
Your long skirt,
Brushed my arm as you passed,
I can still feel the brush,
Of the soft linen.
Now you turn back,
Your eyes meet with mine,
My heart skips a beat,
My bladder feels full,
This is the fourth time
That you got me staring,
Your nice hair style,
I can't help but fantasize,
My fingers brushing it down,
I can see you smile.
The whole of this week,
Has been like this,
You look back,
Our eyes meet,
You smile again,
I lose focus,
But after class,
you are the first to leave,
Lets make this happen,
Before I'm taken by another!!

The Kiss
It is your kiss,
That leaves me breathless,
It makes me stammer,
It makes me see the light,
Even when it's pitch dark,
It makes me smile,
When I am all alone,
Remembering that kiss,
Makes my body shiver,
My spine shudders,
At the thought,
Of your kiss.
Your lips so soft,
Awesome piece of creation,
Your brilliant face,
Feels like gold in my arms,
As I cuddle your cheeks,
Bringing you closer,
As our noses touch,
My heart leaps,
I close my eyes,
I fear I might go blind,
If I watch the trailer,
Of me kissing an angel,
As our lips touch,
My spirits stir,
Pressing our lips together,
I can't hold my feet together,
I lift one foot high,
To rhyme the climax,
Of our great kiss,
As your lips open,
Welcoming my confused tongue,
It feels like I am entering,
The gates of heaven,
Your saliva,
Sweeter than fine wine,
Your warm mouth,
Makes my mind wander,
I can't tell how long,
My tongue remains jailed,
In the sweetness of your mouth,
If I had a chance,
I'd drown your salivary glands,
And never get quenched,
From my thirst for your love.
Now our lips part,
I can no longer focus,
It's like you cast a spell,
On me to love you forever,
I can just smile,
And mumble nothing,
I am left wishing,
That I could kiss you longer,
My heart beats hard,
Deep down,
A feeling of desire,
A want for more,
I Just adore,
Kissing you my miss.

My love epistle
It is because of you my love,
That I disturb my quill,
Moving it back and forth,
Till I finish writing,
This great epistle,
Just my quill and paper,
To tell you how much,
I value you my dear one.
The quill oozes black,
But my love is all white,
Pure and flawless,
Like snow on the mountains,
What i feel for you,
My quill can only peck,
To tell the whole of it,
I would use more words,
Than the drops of the ocean.
I reminisce that kiss,
You gave me that night,
With the music of the crickets,
Dew settled on our feet,
Cold was not a worry,
The problem was your departure,
Since you left for the city,
I haven't heard from you,
I hope you still love me.

THE OCTOBER MONTH
OCT is great. That's why great creatures have 8 features. Octopuses are impeccable in locomotion and behavior. Don't mention Paul the German Octopussy Prophet. In this Octy month, I have decided to write poems on soul searching issues. I will also shed light on national issues like hunger. It is sad that a woman in our country slaughtered a dog for her children while there was relief food in her village with a controversy of the right person to distribute.
Octy holds great significance to me. It is a prosperous month and it is the month that I bought my first car. I have also decided to change my name to Mr. Reality Check. I love you all. :)

It is the sweet tooth that becomes a pain,
It is the white dress that gets the stain,
It is always the government to blame,
But it is always the people to bear shame,
In a world of excuses so lame,
Who is to blame?
While citizens look upon governments,
Governments look upon international donors,
The people still die due to hunger,
Its time we realized why we suffer,
We cant solve problems by blaming each other,
But we can be keepers of our brothers.

Pregnant
From the time I wake up,
My eyes are pregnant with sleep,
To the road on my way to work,
Pregnant with traffic.
On arrival at the office,
The desk is pregnant with work,
A rush to the bank,
The banking hall is pregnant with queues.
The french fries cafe,
Always pregnant with queues and smoke,
The noisy matatu,
Pregnant with excess passengers.
The boss,
Pregnant with unpaid taxes and illicit affairs,
The youth,
Pregnant with joblessness.
The cabinet is almost bursting seams,
Pregnant with ministers and their assistants,
The parliament exudes flatulence of yet to be discussed bills,
Pregnant with fat cats that embezzle for a living.
The mayor,
Pregnant with land grabbing scandals,
The office of the town clerk,
Pregnant with undone repairs of the city.
The streets,
Pregnant with hawkers and pickpockets,
The city parks,
Pregnant with jobless sots.
Surely,
With all this pregnancy,
The world is not using protection.

Differently Kenya
Kenya,
A land of many faces,
42 tribes and languages,
47 counties under one president,
Fruit of the new constitution precedent.
Unique is Kenya,
From the way it does its polls,
To what the media reports in polls,
To the leaders that are elected to parliament.
Only in Kenya,
Is the media better than the investigation department,
It unravels the scandals and syndicates,
That the intelligence hasn't even thought about.
Only in Kenya,
That the Local government is stronger than the main government,
All the citizens prefer being in the hands of a trained policeman,
That being in the hands of a city council policeman.
A look at Nairobi,
Teargas is quite a common meal every lunch hour,
Hawkers and demonstrators are the main trigger,
As they run and shout seeking their family dinner.
Only in Kenya,
That beer fests occur automatically every weekend,
Panel beaters are the richest mechanics,
They thrive repairing cars from drunkard accidents.
A look at Nairobi,
That there are highway mechanics at midnight,
Not forgetting the thriving sex business,
Girls of the twilight in the streets and secret villas.

Hawkers and demonstrators are the main trigger,
As they run and shout seeking their family dinner.
Only in Kenya,
That beer fests occur automatically every weekend,
Panel beaters are the richest mechanics,
They thrive repairing cars from drunkard accidents.
A look at Nairobi,
That there are highway mechanics at midnight,
Not forgetting the thriving sex business,
Girls of the twilight in the streets and secret villas.
Crazy Times
Our country Kenya,
Its time for prayer.
What could a man be thinking?
When they sell human genitalia,
To be used as witchcraft paraphenalia.
What could a man be thinking?
When they send crippled kids to beg,
Making money from people with no legs.
What could a man be thinking?
When they kill for self pleasure,
Drinking human blood like Onyancha.
What could a man be thinking?
When they rape an 80 year old Grandmother,
Then they defile her 8 year old granddaughter.
What could a woman be thinking?
Stealing a newborn from an innocent mother,
Do they know the pain of becoming a mother?

Real Leaders
A wise leader knows,
That to get the votes,
You have to win the hearts,
Hearts of people not rats,
No polluting environs,
With posters on all walls,
No disturbing eardrums,
With loud systems and drums,
Drumming support means,
Humbling down and requesting,
With a low tone,
Just loud enough to pass the message.
Wise leaders consider,
The citizens and their future,
They seek to help the poor,
They do not spread a rumor,
They dont boast of successes,
They join hands with the masses,
They do not impress with big cars,
Citizens are impressed more,
By heroes with victory scars,
Heroes who were injured fighting,
For the rights of the citizens,
Those are real leaders.
Wise politicians dont get dirty,
They seek to end corruption,
They dont work with people they know,
They like it when all people grow,
Their speeches are weighty with passion,
Not to win and sit in the top echelon,
But to ensure that the poor get incomes,
To ensure that the homeless get homes,
To cloth the clothless and feed the hungry,
They dont need to know you to help you,
They just need you to present your problem,
These are real politicians not social problems.

We Have Come of Age
The dreams of our fore fathers,
Are eventually becoming reality,
The young generation,
Has unveiled their vision,
They said,
A time shall come,
When the young will rule,
The time is now,
We have come of age.
Our politics are different,
Its the people to elect,
We will not go dirty at it,
We have come to clean it,
As we put our act together,
We will bring the people together,
We will not divide and rule,
Our aim is to unite and rule,
We have come of age.
With the latest technology,
We will campaign all over the country,
Behind our computer screens,
We will confidently win,
We will track the trends,
From the palms of our hands,
Holding our simple phones,
We will soon take the throne,
We have come of age.

My Solemn Desire
Promote my two figure account balance,
To a nine figure balance,
Help me figure out,
The best region to cast out,
Give me wisdom,
To manage a billion figure kingdom,
Let me blossom,
Please lift me from the bottom,
Let me have more than enough,
For my house and for charity,
Enable me to spread your love,
With what I have,
Keep me from misery,
Clear all my debt,
Let me ressurect,
From this financial casket,
Give me warm blankets,
Those ones called wealth blessings,
Give me a house with no crickets,
A house with luxurious fittings,
Make my life comfortable,
Lay me a balanced table,
My heart desires wealth,
My body desires health,
Give me figures Oh Lord.

Oh Lord
Pastor me a sermon,
Preach out a demon,
I need a blessing,
Oh Lord, make my life interesting.
I want to praise you God,
I want a heavenly bond,
My life is so cold,
I want a warm hand to hold.
I want the Bible,
To be my guiding principle,
I will attend church service,
Oh Lord, Please save my face.
I wonna sing my praises,
Proclaiming you on diases,
I wonna sing hymns of worship,
Oh Lord, Grant me victory over the sin war ship.

Nairobiology
A very nice city,
To people upcountry,
To those living there,
Nairobi is a snare.
You will see a polite hole,
Letting clean water flow,
But it is a sewer,
Dont even go near.
A Nairobi guy will walk up to you,
Ask your directions to the blues,
The next minute you follow him,
The guy will con you thin.
A woman will display her 5 shillings tomatoes on the kerb,
Wait until a bus makes you sramble to the same kerb,
If you happen to step on the tomatoes,
They immediately become 20 shillings per tomatoes.
A Nairobi roadside seller will sell you a DVD movie,
Only to get home and watch a blank movie,
The next day you will go back to return,
He will be gone from the spot never to return.
The Nairobi busfares in the city are inconsistent,
You go one way with shs 20 and go back with shs 50,
Wait until the rain starts dropping,
The busfares automatic start rising.
Riding in a Nairobi matatu is crazier,
Loud music and a drunk conducter for an appetizer,
The pick you just where you are standing,
Wait until it comes to alighting,
You are dropped 500 meters from your destination,
Matatu crews can only be cured by assasination.
The Nairobi lady perches on the bar stool,
Just waiting for a trusting fool like you,
You buy your drink and you head for the loo,
She will spike your drink you fool!!
That is how Nairobi lives,
Everyone learns their own lesson,
Nairobi residents are all teachers,
I choose to call it NAIROBIOLOGY!

The Inevitable
Why does the mike always go off?
When you really want people to hear your word.
Why do you always meet your prospective date?
When you have your current date in your arm.
Why does the matatu splash you with paddles?
The day that you are going for the interview.
Why does the condom always burst?
When its the partner that you dont trust.
Why do you always get a puncture?
When you are headed for the best date.
Why do you always get fired?
After you have taken that bloody loan.
Why do you always lose your voice?
When you are going for a great concert.
Why does your mother always visit you?
When you are wearing that skimpy dress.
Why does the lecturer set an exam?
The day when you cant remember anything.
Why does the movie always end?
Just when she has leaned closer to you in the theatre.
Why does your mother always call?
Just when you are in the noisiest club in town.
Why does she get her red days?
Just when he had decided its time to tee to the hole.
Why does she always get pregnant?
Just a day before you announce her dismissal.
Why does her birthday and the anniversary?
Always come after paying rent and drinking the rest.
Why do your internet bundles ran out?
Just when miss perfect comes online.

Bad Mother
She did not have a choice,
To have her mother Loise,
She found herself in a home wreck,
A single mother and a moral wreck.
At 3, she was working like a teen,
All the house was hers to clean,
At 4, her mother beat her senseless,
The liquor she took made her merciless.
At 5, she started going to church,
Her mother knew nothing about church,
She called her bible the big black book,
At such a time, they had nothing to cook.
At 10, she was the highest scorer at school,
The only gift she received was at school,
Her mother knew nothing about report cards,
At her time, she was a perfect retard.
At 14, she sat for her government exam,
She wanted to be a lawyer and practice maxims,
The mother had no money for her high school,
The future had never felt so bull.
Luckily, the village chief got her a scholarship,
Her heart leapt to the clouds for the sponsorship,
She maintained her trend of excellent performance,
Her results slips gave As' in resonance.
She had vowed never to let her mother interfere,
This was until her mother got cancer,
She had to drop out of school alot more,
She had to labor for her mother's chemo.
Her mother survived the cancer,
But she was also nursing an ulcer,
She couldn't drink any longer,
It was then that her feelings got stronger.
Were it not for her daughter,
She could have been a latter,
To have her mother Loise,
She found herself in a home wreck,
A single mother and a moral wreck.

MY WORD
Never ask how it feels,
If you dont want to hear the truth,
A mouth that is shut,
Resembles a tank that is full,
Full of wisdom waters.
Never drink a beer,
To kick away the fear,
Man up to the occasion,
You were made for a reason,
Dont spoil the mission.
Never give up,
Just take breaks,
Always move on,
Its worth holding on,
It works eventually.

The Girl You Chose
From the first day in high school,
She always made you drool,
Every time you closed your eyes,
Your wish was as clear as the blue skies,
You enjoyed the evening walk,
Love was all you could talk,
You hanged around her home,
You always had undying patient,
You braved bites from her brother's dog,
You cherished the whispers at their fence,
She was always clean and organized,
You were envied by all the village men,
You walked with your head high,
You walked in the middle of the road,
In the Village dance,
All eyes were centered on you,
You have the longest feather on your hat,
The youth respected you,
They even gave you a name,
The guy who won the heart of the princess,
Days passed by,
You never proposed,
She cracked two decades,
We were all eager,
About your wedding,
That never came,
We kept wondering,
The elders were concerned,
They visited your homestead,
You said you were working on something,
Little did we know,
That you were headed west,
I remember that evening in the village,
When word went round,
That you were leaving our land,
That you had the documents,
That they required to get on the metal bird,
Then that early morning,
You left and promised to come back,
Five years later,
Word went round again,
This time, that you were coming back,
We all thanked the clouds,
They had kept our son safe,
We knew you had made enough living,
To keep your bright date safe,
When you arrived in the village,
Aboard the big wheeled house,
You had company,
Somebody who looked like none other in the village,
We thought they gave you escort,
Where you lived abroad,
Only to learn,
That the unique visitor,
Had come to stay,
That the wedding the village waited for,
Had been done in another land,
The the daughter of our ancestors,
Was clocking a third decade,
Waiting for a hoax of a character,
She Fainted!!
Never to wake up again,
She went to get married,
In the place of the ancestors,
Look what you did,
and apeace the ancestors,
For giving them back,
THE GIRL THAT YOU CHOSE!!!
