A journey to Koforidua

Image
From a hot zone My mind settles not for this comfort A comfort of peace in weather What a vehicular cricketing? At a minute, we're shown a red card So we couldn't move for no offence There it comes, a change of card It's green, now we can go I wonder, so when? I had a crush on the hill The few smooth roads without pot and holes It's midday and we're midway No offences, no utterances We either sleep or wake and focused Too automated But soon we will get there The old granny said © Ghana's Own Poet         ✒The PenmAn

HOPELESS HOPE - A poem by The PenmAn

Questions still unanswered cos I never dreamt. But what if it was a dream that I never dreamt ? © Brownson The PenmAn

BROKEN - A poem by The PenmAn

Souls laid bare without bodies Minds lost in the pool Without any wiring Life battered and broken Like the former Second-hand curse Where is hope? Hope where are you? The home is no more a home. © Brownson Adatsi Broken by Brownson The PenmAn

We have chosen to call the animals kingdom a jungle because we think they are no orders and rules governing them, so they are confused disordered. But I have come to realised that the said place we call jungle is home and our home is a deserted jungle. We all tend to think that animals are insensible and insensitive but that thought is never an established fact but  a well calculated and unconsciously speculated notion to cover up for our inability to cope. We live in a jungle where we nonchalantly act and when our actions have become a problem, we tend to be a devil in a white garment shamelessly pointing fingers to others for being the head of our reckless actions. Hello blameshifters, hope you're quite okay with your egomania? We all have become incorrigible and yet point fingers to the government for things that arose from our dirty attitudes. And surprisingly, our political leaders also remorselessly blame other passed government or political leaders for their own perfu...
