Chris Jibero Poems

Sun comes to the East
Early in the morning
Wearing a vivacious smile
Seeking Earth's hand
...

At a peaceful park
Pleasant and airy
I overheard
A seemingly comfortable man
...

He who does nothing to check oppression
Cos it does not affect him directly
Is himself an oppressor
I can see a hurricane gathering
...

More arms and ammunition
More politicking
More propaganda
More wars
...

Man, oh man
earth’s steward
heal yourself
of your protracted insanity
...

sleep took flight on the wings
of loneliness
so initiated I a midnight call
but kroom, kroom, kroom,
...

Our hurriedly erected edifice
Brimming with treasure
Neatly laid by benevolent spirits
Is brazenly despoiled
...

Strong
Elegant
Robust
Energetic
...

Impalpable
Unfathomable
Ubiquitous
Nebulous
...

What a seductress
Power is to a scapegoat
What a stock-piled armoury
What a gathering of zombies
...
