MIDNIGHT POETRY


12.53am...
As the sunflowers shall smile at the morning sun
So shall my eyes glow in the morning breeze.
The doves will be cooing, I am certain;
And I too, am sure my heart will be cooing for you love.
A sleepless night, seemingly it is,
One demanding for a verse, for the one
The one whose heart I intensely treasure.
A midnight poem…
As the sunflowers disgruntle the sun’s distance
So shall my soul begrudge your heart’s distance.
The loneliness though unpleasant,
Shall never overcome
The power of the hope of togetherness,
That herein we so patiently await.
But then my Queen,
The crickets have been aroused.
Don’t know by what but I can guess,
If not by the magnitude of the love,
Then It surely must be…
The midnight poetry!
1.16am...
Twisting. Shifting. Rolling.
The pillow seems to feel dehumanised
Oh No! it’s missing someone, I can tell,
You my babe!
I am comforting her by pushing it aside,
And have laid my hand over her.
For if we continue this way,
The sun’s afternoon heat
Will find me still cuddling
The only company I now have…
For none shall ever conquer,
The Power of Midnight Poetry!
1.27am…
What’s for Breakfast?

HOW DO YOU EXPECT A VILLAGER TO BEHAVE UPON FIRST STEPPING IN CITY?

(WRITTEN ON DECEMBER 2011) NAIROBI  LIFE: ANNONYMOUS LETTER TO A FICTITIOUS COUSIN If you thought coming to Nairobi for a holiday is fun, then think again. I know you grew up being told that Nairobi is the capital city of Kenya but you are wrong. Let me imagine how you will be preparing yourself for the so called ‘vacation’. Back in the village some days before you head for the city, you will boast and tease your fellows who will naturally envy your twist of events. And so they will think that you are going to meet with the most popular of Kenyans whom they only manage to hear on radio about. But unfortunately that’s far from the truth. When you come expect to be warmly welcomed by a chain of rude shocks. Maybe I should give you an idea about what you should expect: 1)       Roads and Highways. Before entering the town you will be greeted by traffic jam some few kilometers from the city. Keep in mind that there are a lot of car...

WHAT MAKES MUGO WA WAIRIMU TICK?

THE ONE QUESTION I WOULD LOVE TO ASK MUGO WAIRIMU: I don't have a girlfriend; but I have a sister whom I love to death.  I don't have a wife; but I have a mother who means is everything to me. I don't have a sugar-mummy; but I have aunts of whom I swore to die for. Do anything stupid to ANY of them and I screw you mercilessly.  ### After watching the video of that 'gynaecologist' Mugo wa Wairimu, I felt it one of my duty as a man, as brother, as a nephew, a son and as a later husband to speak my mind about the story. First and foremost, I would like to commend you for the humongous following you have that is so irredeemably tribal to the extent of rubbishing off something that even a three year old can feel disgusted about. I choose to say no more 'cause I pity them. Before I proceed however, I would like to put something across that I consider the 'doctor' innocent until otherwise proven guilty.  As a law-abiding citizen...

HOW DO YOU EXPECT A VILLAGER TO BEHAVE UPON FIRST STEPPING IN CITY? (PART 2)

....(a continuation of Part One of HOW DO YOU EXPECT A VILLAGER TO BEHAVE UPON FIRST STEPPING IN CITY?) 4)       My Favorite Beer. I do really admit that you love drinking but I fear your drinking style. You hardly finish two hours in the pub before being carried to the house by your friends. Why? First is your drinking speed (or your carburetor as you usually called it), is so high that your friends nicknamed you “Usain Bolt”. Second is the type of drink you take but I don’t blame you for that considering the size of your wallet. If you come to city and one weekend you a have five hundred shillings note, don’t even look at the bar’s door. Instead put that money in your phone account and send it to your accolades in the village for them to take busaa then wait for a “Thank You” call the next day. be sure that you will receive more calls than ever. After that head straight for your house, take a lot of tea and give your bed what it deserves; s...
