Eberechukwu Emmanuel Poems

Glue the clue and paint it blue,
Tie it high and don't you cry.
Hang the flag and let it brag,
Free thy will and let it feel.
...

Tongues wag in self composed augury,
Awarding a wink to their coggery,
Still, I took a step.
...

She wouldn't take her reflection
Off the mirror
Staring at her wrinkled skin
With a disquiet expression, As Though,
...

Like a child learning to walk
Lord guide me through this Odyssey
Stay with me, don't let go of my Hands
I need you, I want you,
...

How will the world be without God -
I wonder

The kneels of men keep bowing down -
...

I saw the way her wrapper was tied -
So tight that the wind couldn't respond.
I saw the way each meal was made -
Without spice and written recipe.
...

Hello Grandpa! Spunky Grandpa! Can you see me?
The little voice whispered from behind -
with it's shadow running about -
like that of a funny bunny -
...

I got to fathom
The awful flank of espousal
With mom and dad
Always at each others throat
...
