  • A King Is Born

    ( A poets birthday gift to himself)
    At the foot of Nyeri Hill, history in the making,
    Through Mathari Haspital, th world was to receive blessings,
    The prophesied one was coming,
    But the world knew not of these tidings.

    Sunday 11th December 1988,
    There is no star from the east to guide the shepherds,
    Only the mighty sun, shining with extra zeal,
    No heavenely choirs to welcome him,
    Only birds sung, portending his arrival,
    No trumpets blown in his honour,
    Only blaring matatus, hooting in dishonor,

    2pm
    A feeble cry,
    The king was here,
    Draped in rich violet velvet he was not,
    But smart in a chocolate suit,
    Knowing himself to be anointed, he tried to shout,
    But only a sweet gurgle,damn you infant lungs!

    Toothless gums, sparse curley hair, dark round eyes,
    The nurses shed tears,
    The giant weighed in at 3.45kgs,

    She gazes into his eyes, takes him in her arms,
    Stares at his beautiful face,
    A true figure of grace,



    He looks at her gentle features,
    Beams and gleams,
    For he knows the world is his.

    my love,
    i will not sign that cheque
    i shall not be stirred,
    i said NO!!
    my sign shall not be vested on it
    my honor shall not be lost to it.


    neither the cheque nor the bearer 
    none i will touch,
    even with the temptation of 'goods attached'
    no tricks you try shall prosper 
    not even dressing it 
    in what you deem proper.


    its pocket the pen shall not leave
    yours is a lost course not to retrieve
    for in this transaction i do not believe
    and the cost too much is the grief.






    not the tip shall you touch
    even if you swear
    an amount so bound to match
    for from it i wish  to remain detached
    yes, it too can be trashed.


    am not in awe of its texture 
    nor the deepness of its measure
    more than the cheque  my ink is precious
    that is why i deny me the favour


    This cheque, love, is a return to sender.
  • I Do Not Know, Cannot Know

    to know much,
    yet understand so little,
    to feel so much,
    yet not get emotional,

    to yearn so much,
    but need so little,
    burning desires,

    that never get to a  crave,

    talk for hours
    with no conversation,
    touch
    yet not feel,

    there are demons in me,
    spirits that trouble my soul,
    evil that discolours my world,
    hollow voids where colds I cannot avoid.

    To have
    and not want,
    saying no
    when I should remain silent,

    listen but i hear nothing,
    but demons, mocking,
    laughing, hideous annoying laughs,
    laughs that reverberatye in my mind
    laughs thta tell me,
    i do not know,
    cannot know!
