OH MY HOME



In an empty pit; I drown,
In the house of a crazy clown
My smile dies and I frown.
Beside a great flowing river,
I thirst like a desert dweller.
Having a thousand mansions,
Yet I sleep in dump-portions.
I have thirty-six eyes but I'm blind
A map I have but the road i can't find.
I am the leader, but I stay behind.

I'm he, the one who they call Tomorrow
But Today has been wounded with a poisoned arrow

When will my nation be straight,
When will I live as a true saint
For my paradise has started to faint.

When will I see my home come home?
When will I end this pointless roam.

When will I sing my song again,
When will happiness end my pain.
When will I sing my song again.

Oh my home
Oh my home
When shall I see my home,
Will I not forget my home?
Will my home not forget me?

TIED TO FREEDOM by Mide Benedict

Don’t hold me down L ike I’m in some cave Just like a bird flies Where nothing breathes light Through a hidden dark sky L ike an existence lost in inexistence, Locked up in a bottle     T hat only lives every day in an every minute coffin Tightened with an unbreakable cover.    Free me I said, but you brought me this! What freedom is more painful than   Eye balls without sights; faith without work like To walk on a spot;                    Mountains tied to your legs   While eyes go dark                    As you walk unmoving: In a place surrounded by light;            What a freedom!

God and The Snail: Poetry For Some One Lost Soul

Sometimes it feels Like all is done, That this life of ours Is caught in deadly thorns: From where we cry for help in a land Where to have ears is a great taboo! But in all these... we remember...
