Random Musings | Stefn Sylvester Anyatonwu


I know the 'WHYs' that precede your tears:
Brace up, you're not the first!

I know that sigh, that silence:
It reminds me you wish I'm there.

I know how 'I love you' ends:
Talk of recycled tales.

I know you now regard me less:
You got the jewel. So what's left?

I know you think it's useless:
Don't give up, it's just a fleeting process.

I know genuine sorrow, friends:
Sun dry your crocodile tears.

I know the peace of death:
Goodbye is just a recess.

I know the cramps of ink fest:
I'm just a menstruating poetess.

I know the stench of emotional mess:
blame the wanton goddess.

I know that crowd moment,
when one feels rather friendless.

I know the schedule of eternity Godless:
Time for burning is endless.

I know the guile of pretense:
just when did I lose my essence?

I know the stain of greases:
makes saints of gypsies.

I know the weight of crosses:
Leaves one between heaven and abyss.

I know perilous times:
They peel away smiles.

I know the pang of weakness:
It pricks like an eternal illness.

I know the taste of sweetness:
of course, she left me tasteless.

I know the sound of sadness:
It groans in silence.

You know, God knows our hearts aches:
He promised. He won't fail.

Eureka will soon rent the air.
Only this, I know not when.

On the day the surrogate father was to arrive, Mr. Smith kissed his wife and said, "I'm off. The man should be here soon" Half an hour later, just by chance a door- to-door baby photographer rang the doorbell, hoping to make a sale.  "Good morning, madam. I've come to...." "Oh, no need to explain. I've been expecting you," Mrs. Smith cut in. "Really?" the photographer asked. "Well, good. I've made a speciality of babies"  "That's what my husband and I had hoped. Please come in and have a seat"  After a moment, she asked, blushing, "Well, where do we start?"  "Leave everything to me. I usually try two in the bathtub, one on the couch and perhaps a couple on the bed. Sometimes the living room floor is fun too; you can really spread out!" "Bathtub, living room floo...
