MENTOR ME.by mwaura gathuka

Mentor me inspire me,
build me desire above me knees,
fill me with confidence to me spine,
raise me esteem peak high,
pointed like a needle .


Mentor me inspire me,
feel the fire that once was,
the warm ash,
dead ash.
Silence,hush!
hear the spirit crash,
piece by piece the cracks
spread like a rash.
Pause. 
am still standing,
with a clutch.


Mentor me inspire me,
mentor me transform me.
Mentor me transfigure me.
Mentor me inspire me,
drill my subconscious.
extra the collusion
that is the devil to this concussion.
hypnotize me with guiding words,
phrases,
sentences,speeches,
that hold me like an infant,
tight,
like a knot,
letting go! not.
mentor me change me.

Freedom.by mwaura gathuka



If being free ain't freedom,
then what?
is freedom;
sworing with the majestic vultures,
gliding with the fierce hawks,
or
flying with the humble doves.

Is freedom;
clear blue skies,
cool ocean breeze.
palms tree dancing to the rythm of the wind,
a warm sun shinning down on you,
white sand caressing your toes
while the mesmerising blue sea soothes your ego;
your demons.


Is freedom;
cruising across the vast
plain lands,
Savannah lands, 
grass lands.
taking in the fresh unpolluted free air,
''FREEDOM''
you shout to the world,
just because you stand on the dome of kilimanjaro;
'hakuna matata' 

Is freedom;
money?
newyork,london,hong kong,
living without boaders.
discovering new worlds;
fashion,sport,entertainment,
corporates,different cuisines and cultures.


Is freedom ;
the opposite of poverty?
hunger,malnutrition,insecurity,shanty shelters.
life sentence for pity crimes
while rich walk free;crime against humanity.

Is freedom;
freedom from the bars of jail?
freedom from forced labour,slavely obbression
or
is freedom;
opening your mind to new perspective,ideas,
that the vulture can only fly so high 
beneath the clouds,
oceans never reach land,
seas are not blues to their doing,
blue skies are just 
but a limit to the eyes
but not the mind.


If being free is a stepping stone
to freedom,
is a tree doomed to eternal bondage?
