My days feel like years My years feel like days My smile hurts like tears My tears smoothen my ways My hopes are also my fears My fears are my other Ayes My inner eyes are my ears They hear every music that plays. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
Poetry
WHAT HUMANS CAN DO
A.I. can only do
What has been done before
Only humans
Can do truly new things
Spirit, give me more –
New hearts beat on different strings.
Spirit, give me those things
That only human spirits can do.

YOU WERE
You were A different world A different time A different song That did not rhyme You were A passing thought A passing glance A passing shot Without a chance. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
YOUR FLOWER
Run down your Friends List Run up your memory quest Run through your heart first You will find the same flower In your happiest and saddest hour And that flower is your power. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
I WISH YOU WELL
Though you hurt me I wish you well I pray that true love Lift you where you fell I pray that God’s Light Illuminates your heart I pray that good things Line up your travel chart And may it be well with you In everything that you do. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
TIMING
We will tell the time and the time will tell us. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
BROKEN RHYME
When trust breaks The universe shakes The heart aches And aches and aches And aches… Because the poem has lost what it takes To ever rhyme again. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
BONDS
We belong to God, Not to one another. Possessiveness is flawed, No one owns the other. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
THE DOGS OF WAR AGAIN
The fogs of war Clouding and blinding - The cogs of war Tripping up and grinding - The bogs of war Weighing down and binding - The blogs of war Lying, agitating, not minding - The dogs of war Stuck in the past, rewinding. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
