A Tiger's Tale...
Alyson ‘Queen’ Court or Piz, that’s her name but to the world, she’s known as something completely different. She’s everything to me or not but y’all know that feeling when you literally can relate to someone in all terms. That’s the feeling I’m talking...

Emotions.
Emotions; they come pouring like water off the edge of the Everest; cold and still, like the fires of furnaces of Babylon; heated till the heaters die, dead off of servitude, like the rolling clouds of a Pacific storm, like the stars of the cosmos, like...

Aly Speaks; Burning Ice.
We were two lost angels discovering salvation in each other, kissing each other’s scars, fitting broken pieces into one another; slowly but steadily. Love is war they say, so we've decided to fight side by side… a one soul army fuelled by passion, laughter,...

Em' Adult Children...
Growing up, we were indirectly taught GROWING UP would be awesome. The transition from nursery to primary, pencils to pens, primary to secondary, shorts to trousers, uniforms to self chosen clothing, school life to independence. It all seemed fascinating...

Poet's Tale; Life Behind the Pen.
Sometimes I get afraid of being called a poet, Because I feel way below standard, I feel my words are yet literally sterilized enough to fit into the category of poetry, Sometimes the pen feels so heavy... writers block I guess, Paper seems hard like...

Damn Logic; He's God.
I'm one to always solve my problems with logic, if there's any excuse I'd say it's a human thing to vector the beginning and possible end to come up with a solution but him; well, let's say he defies logic. He's God, he defined the borders to the state...

Eco over Ego.
Aliens have no idea how hard it is to be human and so,once they arrive in most motion flicks, they think we have life good and so they successfully blow up half the planet in their bid for universal domination. It's so selfish of them and stupid. i sometimes...

Accumulated
He came to class and after minutes of an unending sputtering of academic…, he uttered his first striking statement; “little things are little things but when put up together, they become even greater things”. It was striking but at this point meaningless....

Perfection: Overrated.
I love you with the charade of facial colours, they make your features come our no doubt but, I’d rather gaze upon your imperfections, your zits, your pimple scars, your dimples, all your features without the fillers, brown mask, liners and coloured pencils....

What It Entails...
Being with you is like being with me, it’s necessary. We go together like user and manual, Christmas and chicken, thanksgiving and turkey, Alyson and Noah or more weirdly… Tekno and Cucumber. Hi, it’s Ufana Ishoyor. It’s been over 26 weeks, 138 days,...

Our Looking Glass; #1
*From his perspective Like all things created, there was a beginning, the planting of a seed now sprown, the emergence of a fountain, the aftermath of deeds behind closed doors, the birth of a force... Growing. 18th August 2015, surrounded by unknown...

Aly Speaks; The Human Constant.
Passion, Pain, Pleasure. Pleasure, Passion, Pain. Pain, Pleasure, Passion. Depending on which comes first, this mixture could have a cruel ending or a happy one. We probably would want pain first then have the rest come in whatever order but life is known...

Life's Algorithm.
You owe me no such favours; you barely have to talk to me. We are past and I recognize that now, so have a good life. At least, I taught you one thing; “All humans are expendable”. Hi, Ufana Ishoyor here. It’s 7:07 am on a Sunday morning and I literally...

B.A.R.E
If Steven Spielberg and Michael Bay aren't somehow connected to that fantasy, then I totally don't want to live it. I love to live their fantasies simply because it gives me a break from a truth that already I've owned, but what is real is real and after...

His Mercy Seat...
In all my impurity, he still loves me, in all my pride and stupidity, depression and happiness, love and heartbreak, supposed spirituality and atheism, he has never stopped loving me. His mercy pours from mountains high, washing and making me anew, making...

Life @ 22...
Think good thoughts, drown yourself in an ocean of happy dreams, block out the bad overwhelming cloud that wishes to engulf your day of happiness… be grateful for life,somewhere, somehow, someone currently has it worse than you do. These are part of the...

God; 'I Surrender'
I’ve spent the last 8 months running from a certain truth and all it takes is one night for Him to open my eyes to how much I still do not know, how much I still need to learn, how little I actually am. In recent times, I’ve on several occasions stated...

Broken Heart.
That was the moment when our hands let go, That was the moment our lips last touched, That was the time our feelings crushed and then we knew all we had was lost. Letting go was the worst thing ever, In other words, my best lost forever. I’m lost in my...

Daring Logic.
So, you’re living your life on the safe lane, following the rules, being the good student, not venturing against your parents orders. In essence, you’re the perfect living zombie. Maybe I began a little too rudely, Hi, I’m Ufana Ishoyor and this is the...

A Word called 'Masculism'
* At 5, His Aunt took him into the room, shut the door and forced him into fisting her then she beat the crap outta him for not pleasing her enough but his story was heard and not listened to because he told it some 17 years later in a room of crowded...

How the Mind Works...
So I read alot of ridiculously ridiculous articles that supposedly tell you "7 types of Boys you should avoid" or "How you to get know your future partner" or "How to get the perfect guy" and I think to myself; "Give me a billion dollars and I'd be the...
