STRUGGLE IN THE CHAINS OF FREEDOM

If you take away arrogance then you are left with purity,

Do you still want obscurity in your life filled with absurdity?

Hail the Lord and bow down to His command,

His is the Only Demand to attest to in your remand.

Heed carefully to the words encrypted,

So sacred are the scriptures depicted,

In the hearts of the obedient, the peaceful, and the directed,

Conformity to the word manifest,

Proceed to the world to detest,

The wicked, the wild and the pitiless,

Who fall prey to the satans in their breasts.

Alas! Tis the last words projected in the text!

INTROSANG (UNDERGROUND ABOVE)


2/27

Acting all strong when you know your mind is weak,

Cant see me eye-to-eye cause you know i got the beat,

I got the heat brother, thatll make you stroke,

A hot-blooded sanguine introvertedly cloaked,

My time is prime, ignorance never contends,

The deaf, dumb and blind never comprehend,

What i extend everybody contends,

I rock it down rock bottom but the judges pretend,

They aint seen it, cause I dont make no sense,

How can a half-wrecked boat make it sail to the end,

Bam bara, thats how it goes in my head,

24/7 never get tired of the bends,

My life takes, something only legends can see,

Gigantic oceans misdirecting thee from eternity,

Vamboose mara, all of a sudden in a mix,

9/11 type steeple-chasing in risks,

Enough of the base, let me lay it down in your head,

Its an all-out war and youre yet to be led!

LINKING LURE

Your love needs no poetry for poetry cannot live up,


3/27

Your words need no assurance for assurance doesnt sum up,

A love so pure that cleanses and makes secure,

To exhale and let all incur,

Bail the emptiness to fill the soul with whats sure,

My love for you resembles no masterpiece as obscure,

Love then we shall in total liking lure.

P24 ON THE HOUR 24

P24 is what should be on your mind on the hour 24,

Because you never knew what took place in the weeks that lay before,


4/27

And you dont wait for the swellings on the jaw,

Or the flesh that has got a sore,

For the imbecile that thrives therein,

On the outside you can never know.

So keep in mind P24 the next time you knock down that door,

For he never likes to show his artillery and many more,

Its as simple as ABC; dont tell me you went not to nursery,

Its just counting from 1 to 3 and in a blink youll breeze through university.

Now pay heed to the words i say,

Because theyre priceless to say the least,

Its the seed for a brighter day,

Shine your torch wisely in this cloud of mist.

MIRAGE

In the abundance of water the fool is thirsty,

Theyll refuse to drink even when the banks are bursting,


5/27

Their arrogance prevents them from realising the lasting,

Chasing phantoms of pleasure in their perpetual lusting.

Their desperate rush and illusive false ascent,

Leaves them unsatisfied and famished once theyve reached the end.

TO YOUR HEART

Across the river, past the oceans, over the mountains, all the way to your heart,

Thats just where i will start to tell you what Im about; my soul needs to shout,

You know what its about,

You and I in this dream oh flower so supreme,


6/27


7/27

Im living the truth,

The truth that is open for all to see,

Is it out of conviction,

Or is it searching the what that I should be?

Conflicting, yet maybe depicting the situation that Im in,

Bouncing back and forth in the oceans of waves surrounding.

16th August 2008

BY TESTIMONY

By God, the Lord works in mysterious paths,

You have to know what you asked,

During the time that passed,

For that is what Hell answer-

Be careful with what you asked.


8/27

You know youre trapped but blessed and you can tell,

Youre in chains but treasure captivity in the cell,

Those outside despise you, you criminal from hell,

Not understanding its this state that makes you feel so well.

So fine, you trip at the mention of your slips,

But crime isnt so foolish if you realised what youd missed,

As you reminisce and realise how youd been so naive,

So you get this feeling of content and youre now at ease.

At ease because you know for sure you please,

You pleased as He sent angels to your knees,

From trees your soul was shades from disease,

Alas! You exhale and enjoy the gentle breeze.

THE DAWN

Such a peaceful dawning- only the fools will be treacherous,

Much is graceful in the morning- the heart is cooled by His sustenance,

For if you do not see the signs- then youll be passed by the romance,

Of the wind that shakes the pines and the breeze that soothes the nomads.

METRO DUTIES

Metro is the bus i ride,

As i stride watching those who pass by,

You ask me why?

Well take a while to think of the reason why,

I would walk on tarmac for miles.

Piles, thats what resembles the why in the smirk you cover in smiles,

Im starting to snooze due to these tasks that I choose as my fantasies flow freeand loose...


10/27

Now suddenly it pains,

The boredom will change to a lethargolical brain,

Your psyche complains giving in to the chains slugging back and forth through

your tired veins.

16th September 2007

TWILIGHT

You want to comprehend but the poetry contends,

With logic you build and the bricks tumbling in decent,

Youre there; dont regress as you progress,

For if youre an acceptor of the address,

Then youve conquered ignorance.

Your goal is only conquest,

Conquest of the best; beat the rest,

Ascend into twilight.........

THE PITH OF IT ALL

I just realised that within my immediate surroundings I have no confidante,

For which acquaintance will help me load a baggage as heavy as a ton?

My fears, insecurities, my faults and my slips,

Is there anyone who can lift me up when I trip?

The strength and resilience that I show,

Where art thee to mirror back when I fall down so low?

Am I so strong, too strong to be weak?

Dont the ships sink when they leak, as they seek?

Shall I have to wait till I think, right here at the brink?


12/27

So deep down do I go, far way below.

In the meadows where the wind gently blows,

A tornado can sweep all that you reap,

Then where will you sleep as the night starts to creep in the darkness so deep?

So as I was saying, a confidante is quite very paying,

For these pretty thoughts would they have been straying,

Had I got help with what I was weighing? Conveying.....

Betraying is the laying of wishes unrelaying,

For stars are better at saying the route to ones caring.

Content because the world tells me so,

Are we circumstances of what we let go, what we choose to go for?

The pore that we saw and gave a blind eye until we realised how sore,

So sore now is the bore (hole),

Birth had been given to a law (brawl),

A law that we now cannot amend,

For it was billed, billed in the deepest of descent when we knelt to attend,

To attend, to attend to the flaws that we sought to apprehend,

Apprehend, apprehend then suspend. Humph!

Enough of the craze, Im sure youre in a daze,

Trying to make sense of this haze that may appear as a maze to those, to whom

it may amaze,

Tis not at all the thoughts of a laze, neigh,

Tis but a revelation of what I base, what I base in the pith,

In the pith, dear reader, of that which I raise.


13/27

THE GAG BOUT

Hunger till you eat fungi,

Njaa over ile ya bhangi,

Kutapika itabidi- regurgitation yellow kwa rangi.

Eggs exacerbation, coffee depression,

Gag reflex dissemination- a crazy session,

Your budget needs revision,

Eliminate malvision.

CD track, umbrellas lack, the rains whack,

Then you smack, your head, conscious regained,

Pain suspend-ed.


14/27

Chill out, its all just a bout! (about?)

12th February 2008

EMOTIO PARADOXICALE

You speak of one thing but you mind voices another,

I know you understand that your words are just but a border,

It goes that I assume since I know of no other.

And I will not assure you that my thoughts could live up to be a shoulder,

So dont complain of chills when my arms become colder,

You must know that my actions will eventually become bolder,

As I shrug off anything that becomes a bother.

It has been said,

So damn the ignorance when I laid to you that Im the holder,

Of your love, joy, melancholy and even of your failures.

THE RETURN

Its the return of the gangster,

Hells no, more like a mindster,

Rapping wholesome nutrition to feed you,

If youre too damn nuts youll slit your wrist up,

This heat sucks,- it must be your core with a blister,

Not thinking of a doctor that can fix you,

Your lips up, defecating to eat it all up,

So tough, feet in shackles and hands cuffed up,

To treat you, an axe to break all those chains up,

Release you, not cut your hands off for the vultures,

Were soldiers, struggle to the end so join the venture,

Adventure, scrambles of war to share in pleasure,

Not haunt you, raise the flag high brothers,

Please take a picture.

KITOWEO MKARANGO

Nina ma stress kibao, mchezo kando,

Wacha story brazameni, ninalo jambo,

Akili hazitulii, kichwa changu chambo,

Chavuliwa ka samaki, hayo ndo mambo,

Balaa mpaka usiku nawanga ka wango,

Njia ikitokeza hakuna mlango,

Mchecheto kuruka, kunywea bila mpango,

Nawaza nkiwazuka bitwa zito ka tango.

Zilzala nnalotungwa wengi walipitia kitambo,

Ntawawacha na mstari lilochungwa kwa mtambo:

Hatolalamika kitoweo ikiwa tayari mkarango.

SOUL RECOLLECTION

I am going to endure this hard life for as long as it takes,

Bear with me oh heart,

For my love for your purity shall never depart,

Remember how it was at the start?

When all was well and we were in tune to our gut?

I would cry with you as the world aside we would shut.

So sweet was the sweetness embarked!

The countless reminders wed articulate,

In effortless endeavours as wed undertake,

Oh where are those days to come and overtake,

These scrupulous days and nights that misinterpret,

The essence of our synchrony we used to emulate.

Come back oh loved one so that we may entrain,

And forever more, forever more my love we shall prevail.

BELIEVE IT

The truce shall be broken; we know its eventuality,

The truth shall be breached,

The deception will believe the lie and the truce shall be broken,

All present will testify to the truth that will be open.

For all to see will be what emanates from the heart,

The essence in reality will give away what lay from the start,

The truth, the truce, the souls,

They all will preach on the day we depart.

FROM THE STREET

You go to sleep and the weight of the world is on you,

The innocent young faces of little kids playing on the streets,

And the rebellious teenagers stamping their feet.

But the pedlars they do not care about the heat,

That they feed with their dry wood blazing all thats sweet,

The lords are not tending to the weak,

They just collect the fruits of slaves tortured day and week,

And the mayor, he sits oblivious on his seat,

Licking sweat of the once sweet cherries he let them pick.

Isnt it sick! From top to bottom its mould growing thick,

Yet no one pays attention to the pungent-smelling reek,

Except for those who see it all day and week,

As little children play ball naive on the street.

30th January 2008

YOU SPELL WHAT YOULL ACHIEVE

We live in a world of hypocrisy,

Do you know where you dwell?

Conflicted with ideals,

Upon every word that you spell.

We dwell in a world of evil,

Do you know where you live?

Chatting with silver-tongued devils,

Ignoring what youll achieve.

Hypocrisy and evil,

May seem two words quite afar,

But when you dwell in those lives,

You come to see them for what they are:

Ideals that cannot stand the test of sincerity,

Devils that cannot band the quest for certainty.

A BETTER DAY

Yes, the guilt trip is killing me,

Tis what I want, tis what Ill get,

Be strong, never regret,

Wake up and work hard for what you should get,

Tomorrow will be a better day yet.

Yet, for though the air may be wet and the sky not clear,

Theres one thing you should know my dear,

Its never too late,

Never too late for miracles to happen and dreams to reappear,

Its never too late, never too late my dear.

Your horrors will float; float straight off the peer,

Into the distant skyline they will steer,

Far, far, far away,

Further than any eye will would stray,

The clouds will open up to reveal the suns gleaming rays,

And in the midst shall be portrayed rainbows of all arrays,

Relay. relay, relay all your wishes today,

For today my dear will give way to a better day.

THE QUART

The depth, ones depth, how deep will you go?

A depth so deep, deeper than the oceans floor,

He knows, she knows, and we know we can walk to the shore,

For He shows and they show the way that leads to the door.

The widths, their width, how wide can one flow?

A width so wide, wider than the horizons show.

Whose length? Your length? How far are you willing to go?

A length, so long, to the end youd have to crawl.

Dimensions, three dimensions,

Have you asked about the fourth?

The ascensions, all concessions will descend to their worth.

WHAT IT IS

You must be very good!

Thats what the lady said,

Or is it what I wanted to hear?

I long for that day when from this heart I can thrust out this spear.

It must be the rainy mood!

Thats what my heart said,

It is within my soul that lays this fear,

I am hoping everyday that from this entanglement I can stay clear.

It must be very crude!

Thats what my conscious said,

And my mind needs an end that dear,

Oh Lord deliver me from this illness and into conviction may I steer!

DOWNTOWN RAIN

The rains in my beautiful town pour,

Kids run along the playfields in lure,

Chattering so bright and strong,

The people in harmony with a heartfelt song.

How wonderful as though surrounded by angels,

The mystic bells ring in my head like charmed bangles,

The prayer calls as the rain falls.......

EXISTANCE

Why are we alive? You dare ask that question when your heart keeps beating

independent from your conscious? You dare ask that question?

The blood rushes through your arteries like the springs that flow across the

landscapes of serenity, and you dare ask that question? Your mind feeds from

the riches coursing through your flesh replenishing you soul with thoughts so

distinct and reasoning so abstract yet you still ask that question? Think!

The flowers that bloom from the earth. You ask that question? You question and

you still come back to the question. A question.......

Uncertainty, the doubt of the self. What to believe? What do you believe?Certainty of the truth. The where is the truth? Facts about something. Well it

is that the truth lies in the beat that keeps you alive. Something. Do you then

understand?

THE CONQUERER

It crashes through all gates, brings down all walls, and raises the soil from the

belly of the earth bringing forth the seeds of Mother Nature. Clouds open up and

pour its freshness to quench the thirst of life. Blooms and greenery spread as

the wilderness bursts with birds of beauty chirping to the wondrous Eden of

peace. Elegant beasts rustle in the splendid realms of tranquillity. It conquers all.
