A penny or a smile

it doesn't make us any better
if we simply pass by
without lending a hand
if we just stand by the side
or hide in taxis and cars
sliding up the window fast
just before the beggar comes by

however it doesn't hurt
to hand a penny
or a smile out of heart

without going through all the jumble mumbles of complaint

Grow into us

i will be me
i will grow to be me
and if you live to be you
and grow to be you
we'll paint rainbows
with our colors of uniqueness

playing parts

i believe in tomorrow
i believe in better opportunities
i believe that we all deserve the best
let us play our part 
and give others the chance
to shine beyond the sun

High days

What is to bend low
is it to fall to the floor?
Or is it to get ready to rise!

A troubled young millionaire

i had dreams of my own
i wanted to work hard
i dreamed of a great career
masters,  phd, doctorate and going back all the way
but now here  i am
stuck with these heavy bags
of millions of dollars
watchin agataliko nfufu
and...
what...? am now a billionaire
oh my, when will achieve my dreams

Bliss paradox

am lying in the middle of the road

am the beggar on the street

yeah the one that just got knocked down

and now am living the dream

in a luxurious ambulance ride

moving at presidential convoy speed

yeah, i just got fired

a day after i was hired

guess i was already tired

now am a free man

ready to chase the Ugandan dream

i am a millionaire

oh, that was yesterday

am now broke like today

but guess it was  all futile

now i can focus on what matters most

i can now love

i can have true friends

i can live the fuller life...

The part of us

there are things we like
then things we are passionate about
then people that we love
there are things that have our eyes
sounds that have our ears
and people that have our hearts

Season of apples

its the season of apples
its the year of ripples
its the match of the town
to the line of the run-down
its march, its April
its Easter
i don't know where
but then whenever its thanksgiving
Santa is out of town
but its still Christmas
the year says goodbye
2014 kicks in
and we are back here
the day when i write this very speech
with just  a few twisted notes
in many a different word
for the same world.

Simple apple

i like you simple
like  a colourless apple
without care for green  or red
for in that blend
you are ample

OMG

today i met you
and ...
and
and .....

ok, yesterday i met you
and went blank
lost all my words
my sweet lined up words
that went like... so and so...

well, that's good practice
now there she comes...

now that i have met you
i....
i
i...........

oh no, not again.

Happy you

a tear drops
its emotional
a scream whispers
its sensational

a smile emerges
its warming
a crowd cheers
its consuming

the earth hushes
for though winds are harsh
there is no rush

for you are happy
so even in this cell
i have peace
i cherish hope for tomorrow
to see
the happy you

Write about you

i write about you
like i know you
i giggle at the thought of you
like a beat crazed by you
as you lend your voice
to give music to song
clearing all wrong

You, Me

you keep me here

i love it here

you take me  there 

i love it there

you look at me like that

so i love  it like that

you make me be me

so i love you

for you let me love me

Same old same old

i love this year, its what i always say every year

Memoirs of Mine

and there was time
when waves sang rhyme
we did not mime
for you were mine

Gentle notions

i shall not take my place
for i need not race
swirly winds will i embrace
with a soothing grace
upon thine indescribable face

Song of hearts

sing to hearts
and tyrants shall smile

sing to hearts
and she'll fall in love

sing to hearts 
and your heart shall be a song
a beautiful song

sing to hearts
and you'll sweetly sleep tonight

Rise and fall

we twist and turn
grounds roll and run
flowers fade and burn
yes, 
we fall to rise
making it better than it was

Rolling heart

am a rolling heart
spreading bright delight
along my path of flight

work theory

there is a time to rock
then a time to soften rocks
and a time take it on with rocks
well, it's just another day at work

Becoming you

we are cleaning up
this time
we are the stand
