The Dead Love

Image
When the bells rang patience was out rough gentility was on negligence all about Fun, game, and hunger After what? A treacherous passion Hurricane desire like bitter honey Outburst Flashback, a misplacement Vows, hidden covenants Would they be erased? Dream on Happy sorrow, emotional turmoil Cravings and wants All gone! All gone! Is there hope? Who Knows?                            by Evelyn Asare

EYELASH

Image
they come and go come and go they file in they run in their lies are true their truths are lies they pretend to act yet they display to pretend they come and go come and go seeming friendly objects establishing a cordial but dirty relationship who are they? I ask myself they just keep coming they! NEVER stopping I ponder and wonder I assume and presume who are they? I ask myself protectors destroyers lovers haters MIND CRUSH STUPID RUSH I am an eyelash and would protect to the end My value may seem mysterious impracticable, inapprehensible but certainly not impossible I am there for me To protect from them they will always come some to stay no! one to stay the rest to go Is it real? Is it fiction? I am the EYELASH                                   by Evelyn Asare 

THE ILLITERATE

Image
Literacy is figurative Minds blow past innovations Inventions an expectation But remorse fills the medulla oblongata When fatuity is displaced Do we blame our efforts or our trials? Our pledges or our endeavours? Seeming inevitable in African culture Inappropriate enhancement Magnitudes against longitudes Heights against lengths Friction against gravity A possibility to be excused Man is up against literacy Africa is up against illiteracy Stupidity is up against wisdom Yet a shock in display Delivering what was not stored And what was stored never delivered THE EDUCATED, THE UNEDUCATED, THE WISE, THE FOOLISH ARE ALL ILLITERATES                                by Evelyn Asare                                Written in 2013

Marriage = ?

Image
Marriage =entanglement Marriage = contract Marriage = Joy/sorrow Marriage = faith/fate Marriage = husband and wife Marriage = children/success Marriage = fulfillment Marriage = life/death Marriage = better/worse Marriage = LOVE Marriage = Sweet/bitter bondage for life You either choose to be or not If you're not ready, please do not rush! Sensitive spot When bamboozled ask God for direction               Marriage!                                   by Evelyn Asare

Blue Ball

Image
Frustration is an insight Fiction is a mild plight Humility embraces honesty Harsh profound humidity Coloured lifestyle Crowned pine Eager selflessness Lovely Hatred Frustration is an insight Fiction is a mild plight Life full of many colours Different balls Paths will be chosen But when I am asked It will be a BLUE BALL                                    by Evelyn Asare

A new Year

Image
                  ♡♡♡♡♡ Humans define the Year. Don't let 2016 define you! Define 2016! Initially, this wasn't a poem, but now I think you should know my thoughts on the year. This may seem to be prose but is a serious analysis. Deaths will always be there and as for births they cannot be avoided. In the same vein, poverty will continue and millionaires will continue. Footballers will play. Bakers will bake. The list is unending... This is YEAR. Everything continues...
