K.O.

Black like me
A giant.
The toughest of them all.
Many paid good money
To see Jack Johnson fall.

Seraph

An angelic hand
Pointed me to Israel
When I was a slave.
By and by
The thoughts of a dove
Became the words of a knave.

And she set my heart on fire.
To witness the divine
O, black Mariah.

Moon Dancer

The blanket of madness
Engulfs a city.
Children too hard-bitten to wonder why.
At nighttimes a tapestry of lights
Leads to the moon.
The pitcher of the stars
Stands proud in his radiance.

By Raymond Enisuoh

Shaman

Our rhythmic cycle
Disturbed by the creatures
Of the earth-
Scurrying for shelter.
Our hibernation perplexed
By the greed of man.
We walk amongst you
Under many names
But never fear:
For we are ‘the gods’
The children of Chitauri.

Zulu

Africa’s triumph
Violence on the landscape
From the stars this kaleidoscopic array.
Death before dishonour
The warrior’s mantra
A ninja’s face
Covered in blood.

Yunus

Rising up once again
We the children of Abraham
Prepare for Zion.
God on our lips
Thirst on our tongues:
The sacred land has become
A denizen of iniquity.
We fear the crest
Devouring all in its path
And the sea-monster
Of Jonah’s deliverance.

By Raymond Enisuoh

Afghanistan

Sandy like the desert dunes
Nobody hears our cries.
Foolish time.
A scream becomes a yelp
Then a whisper.
I was happy once
Will be again.
Just got to keep on walking.

Solar eclipse
A moment of darkness
My life force runs weak
Due to your absence.
Blue sun on the horizon
Our scorched earth
May never be the same

Our symbol of choice
Growing up towards the heavens
Nourished by the earth.

Rainbow Smile

Disappearing into the heavens
Cyclops train:
A brilliant transformation
O voyager of light.
Only the mystics know
None but the initiated understand.
Rainbow smile
My jubilant gesture
Towards the sky
Laughter upon awakening
In my parental home
-Back so soon.

Runaway

Bullets for marbles
Our war-torn epic
Of lost youth, adolescent strategies
And unmarked graves.
Fighting a junta, an absent autocrat
In between games of soccer,
Injured stumps for legs
Dry maize for food.
The night stars a napkin
Our staple diet the blood of loved ones
Children treading carefully
Over poisoned land
Littered with mines.
A toy soldier’s hat removed
Long flowing hair
Not quite hiding the trauma
Of missed periods:
Rape as a warning.

In the dark of the night
Remind me of the way
We made love.

In the security

Ghosts

Tiny footsteps of children
Echo through the air
Lost names, numbers.
Cackles of laughter
Haunt the hallway.

Cobwebs and mothballs
Shield a musty smell:
Asthmatic sneezes
Almost give the game away.

A Yiddish man
Confirms his identity
Hushed curses drowned out
By malevolence.
The marching of troops in the distance.
A cramped wardrobe
Hidden by a wearisome ritual.

An imaginary transistor radio
Confirms the war over.
A burnt yellow star
The dictator dead.
