Poets' Corner
Bed
Bed, you are everywhere.In and out of houses you are.
You are strong.
All men throw their weight on you.
All heavenly bodies throw their weight on you.
The earth finds a resting place on you.
But you do not cry out of fatigueness.
You are strong.
Bed, it's on you lovers fake and genuine
find a pleasure playing ground.
It's on you vows are made and are broken.
You are the dumb witness of the
activities of the adulterous man
of the unfaithful wife.
You give me nights of nightmares
and sound sleep.
You understand all the world's languages
but choose to remain silent.
It's on you life begins and life ends.
I Am Black And Proud
I am black and proudYou are black and proud
You are white within
You are black without
Black is beautiful
Why want to change your colour?
Hypocrite
Only your lips are saying
I am black and proud
I hear your heart shouting
I am white and proud
Remove that mask and all will see
You as white and proud
Hypocrite.
