Ugochukwu Nnamdi's Profile
VERTIGO
Will I fall in spring
Or petal bloom in winter?
My eking pixels are sessile
I dance to Brownian still.
I’d sail down on a bison
Past opaque seas of music
Will this Pharaoh let me go?
Is it me or vertigo?
MOONCHILD
Moonchild,
Born of silk, smoke and dust
Creeping past crypts of celestial space
You will lay on your crescent bed
Conjuring this sheen union between light and dark
You will seduce the night with your allure
And your brothers will halt in wonder of your stolen glow.
Sail on to eternity and beyond
On seas and lakes of native descent
As we tell tales by moonlight
To our black seeds with hope
As they dance with timbrels in awe of you
We will meet beyond the river of dark
The wolf will call with his pack.
ADAM IN EVE(The Requiem)
Fallen Adam seeks grace in sobriety
Singing requiems to his nude new
With notes of blind fig fronds and a pelt
To his rib-turned Eve in opposites.
Eve in self disdain will dance no more
To this naked sultry tune and song,
With weary feet they'll sit on stools
Of broken enthralldom and dead spells
Reminiscing their sinful choreography
And how much dust they could be.
Already drowned in a sea of filth,
They will head for paradise again
So she'll wait like deadened Sarah
For when the spirit of dance returns.

So she'll wait like deadened Sarah
For when the spirit of dance returns.
ADAM IN EVE(The Musical)
ADAM IN EVE (The Musical)
At evenings in a garden of sin
Beneath trees of putrid passions
Sprouts dreams blue and bare-breasted
Of a nubile nubian-like Eve
Fistful of drink in oaken ware
Dancing unclad in fetish flesh.
Adam soon drunken over wine
Will head home in lazy gaits
Lusting with soul to her lewd song
Enduring cruel baptisms in her deep seep
Skin for skin she'll dance offbeat
To peaks of their spasmodic music
And wait for thoughts of dark
When the spirit of dance leaves.
MORNING BIRD
Through sky window pane
Out my burning morning sheets
I saw two miles above
On wild gliding
Concrete visage, a new bird newly hatched
Yellow, two-sided, flying like a fly
Yellow faced, It sailed lightly to sun and wind
Between rains, daily parading itself
On seed-clouds, diligently
For how long the lazy flight?
Perhaps like the woman of infinite faith
It kept trying in wait
For the mastery of sky and cloud
Fire and rain, stick and stone
Then I saw it again
Poised in courageous faith
Between the heavens this time
And sky sailing in freedom
Into its world, mid-sky above
I thought its mother to this feat
Would fly in grace and bliss
With a gift of peace to its ward
And proclaim it to be King of Air and Sky
But every windy day
Feather for feather it was stripped flight
Nature defied, it transformed apparel
Unwinged it passed
It went from clear pink to sickly black
Before it died
Today I see it still
Dry, bone-thin in wind and sky of the dry weeks
Wiped out on emergence of fervent faith
But at least it flew before fall.
DIVERGENCE
Across alleys and terrains agape
Of life’s greedy bounty we thread
As from cradle chiseled in hope;
Stenciled still by tradition of the dead
We have seen cycles my brothers
The days of the blood moon,
The nights of languid sun rays
We have danced to paradiddles
Life jingles and whispers a riddle
Of how we must seek greener grasses
And sunder the cocoons of comfort
For the trees that shade our spirits
Was planted by spirits older
So old friends must play strangers
Enemies must seek treaties
And make reparations with sanctity,
Life brings roses, daisies and thorns but
Amidst uncertain certainties lies a truth
Entropy is never on our side.
PSP
Love is not a four letter word
It is a kiss to the gun
Love is not just a verb
It is a long stare at the sun
Nowadays a game of opportunity
A spectral heap of nothingness.
Like a farm thief at deep-night
Reaping other people’s cassava,
The victims will wake to confusion.
Be cautious of clay when it rains,
People Scam People!
There’s derision in town;
People trade love for profit
He who gets the honeypot wins
And so love stinks like a dump truck
Full of odious waste and noxious matter
Pungent and beggarly like Lazarus
On it’s way to Alimosho Canal
To be emptied after a great fill
At least that’s how it feels
Just empty after a great fill.
People Scam People!
HIDE AND SKIN
Will you feetdance to my sultry song
Will you acquiesce to my distant call
Will your heart beat in semiquavers
Will your skin bleed out black waters?
Do not be riddled by my paradiddles
Or my bedraggled drags and flams
Rather conjugate spirit and rhythm
Let us dance to this spasmodic music.
At twilight underneath parasols of sin
We begin the ritual of hide and skin
Making pure melodies with filthy flesh
To my drum patterns and retrogrades.
Where are you pretty sea-maid
Are you drunken on me-wine
Shall I beat these hides again
Or shall I tarry till you can dance again?
THE KING’S WAGER
Once there lived a King at sea
King Of The Maroons they say,
Born with brazen arms and feet
Spawned and bred in naval bay.
One a day in ship unmoored
Sailing stolid on sullen sea,
Came leviathan mayhap to gore
To ruin his rather lushly lee.
Bidden to such bloody mêlée
He prays to far heaven and hades
Soon drunken on youth and drink,
The King made a wager to death.
Spear in hand and kill in mind,
Away with zest and verve he jumped
And as hunter onto venison wild
His spooky spartan spear had trumped.
Merry by victory he stood with blithe,
Amid jaw and teeth of fallen beast
Too tardy to play pirate and parley
He fell to his sleep in pithy glory.
And so goes the legend and lore
King Of The Maroons no more
Arms and feet it cost his four
Reeking with the spoil ashore.
EVENING DIRGE
At dusk they leave their sleep
And head across the mazy deep
In the marsh they plant their feet
Singing songs of north and east
Dancing to this tune of war
Arms and legs it costs all four
So they commune in soul with spirit
Veiled souls seeking for merit.
AT HOME WITH NATIVES
At home with natives
The air is rackety and roisterous
There’s a grand festival of harvest
As we ingather maiden yam into new barns;
To regal euphony and choral feasting,
Children feet-dance on this rufescent earth;
The diviners sprinkle festooned feathers
To mediate rituals and seal festive rites,
And like the communion of bird and tree,
Merchants broker treaties with buyers afar and near
Doggedly waiting for our market days
To crown their herculean slogs alas.
At home with natives
There’s palm-sap for our merry and mirth
So we all have our fill for three
Engendering tirades and ceaseless cacophonies.
Squiffy we will head for the road
Through farmlands of fledgling corn,
Every man to his own clay-shack
With weary feet and teetering steps
Plodding bush paths with dissonant songs
Amidst the night-green of leaves,
Reverberant chirps of angry crickets
And blind fireflies to end the night.
ASOKORO THIS NIGHT
Mist-laden shroud, bone-dry, warm, lucent
Keel over, spring a forward roll in her crust
That quick over us sprawls, all
Of a lift, this fresh burst of lights,
Scattered stars swishing surly
With candescence, flush incessant.
It is parade fit for a bride-
Who, oh, regard! flaunts over there wide
Canopied, this buzzing beau monde, over
With ashen clouds reeling out of theme
Atop this rocky city hidden in the leaves.
Effervescent, freckling of the blue bloods
Dots her hide in a mesh of mottled light
Buried within the night-green of trees
And the bellies of tuber thieves,
But will morning soon come nascent
Clad in the charm of your flowers
Or will you promenade sluggishly away from
The fibres of your palaces? Which will it be?
