Cradled
Cradled and comfortable for death I wept, I wept and cried a sleepless pain And the empty darkness consumed the rain For which I'm known I'm born I'm killed I'm dead, I'm dead I'm you if you were me I'm every life ended in pain I'm every life

THE COMMON LAW AND EQUITY
I wrote this poem in 2000 after I finished a course, 'Nigeria Legal System' in my second year at Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma where I read Civil Law. I found the blend of both edges of the law fascinating. This will be better understood by people who understand the legal system of the Commonwealth of Nations as well as Christians who understand what Apostle Paul meant by the Law and Grace in his epistles.

Pres. Obama’s Shout-Out to the Critics
I wrote this poem early part of this month as a blog posted on my website. It's a common sense/lash out at the president's most harshest critics and haters. These people seem to criticize everything that he does. As an independent, but more over to the base of the conservative side of the political spectrum, I agree/disagree on certain things that the president have done but I'm willing to give him time and show him respect like I did with former president Bush. Bashing just to be bashing and engaging in double standards towards him and not with other past presidents is not constructive criticism. What these people need to understand that this type of behavior is Only making themselves look seriously misinformed and ignorant, not the president!

"For someone I knew."
They say vanity is a down fall of humanity. Your chastity is given away like charity. Open legs and closed eyes, with you pleasure comes with a price. It doesn't matter if those moments have flavor or spice or even entice. Call you prostitute, ne

Why Do You Write Poetry?
Why do you write poetry? Is it for the recognition? Maybe for the glory, or just to see if someone, somewhere is even listening. Do you make up stories of pure fiction? Or are you just desperate for some attention. Why is it so important to
