Dilemma of my Country
by Jennifer Johnson
My heart, like shattered glasses
Perturbed by the epidermic illness
Which has devoured deeply and affected the masses,
And very reluctant to the treatment of its sickness.
Visionless tigers
Rule the territory with fallacy
Gradually becoming losers
And losing its independency.

I need
by Graham Ereks
I need a woman, humble and virtuous;
A homebuilder, sedulous and righteous-
A woman who's going to be my backbone
Not one callous, with a heart of stone.
I need a woman, submissive as Sarah,
A woman not as harlotrious as Gomer.
I need a woman I can make my wife
The one and only love of my life;
A woman, ad infinitum, trustworthy,
......
The Living Dead
by Graham Ereks
I am a living dead;
Yes a living dead
For the backbone
Of my family is gone.
My eyes are swollen,
Pregnant with raindrops,
My body, embraced by kwashiorkor.
Of what use is life with these anguishes?
