I created this channel to share helpful and entertaining content on poetry, spoken words, and other related forms of arts in general. Also, discuss on politics and its harm on the average citizens.
I started this channel so that I would be able to express my most hidden fears, experiences, thoughts, and ideas through poetry. It was my way of expressing the thoughts I knew some people around me won't like to hear. When I finally dared to go on YouTube, I think this has given me a chance to say it out loud and to encourage, inspire or motivate whoever wants to hear such words. Whether in society as a whole, the African continent, the world, social experiences, politics, arts, death, growth, self-improvement, and many others.
I am always ready to connect with likeminded people. Feel free to reach me for business purposes at akumbeg9@gmail.com!
Far From Just Words
Africa my Africa from “Nwa’nwi (Child of God)
Cracked feet
From long
Shoeless journeys
Great men
Lay breathless
Four feet

They ate better
They are pure
They are stronger than they look
Their minds are made of iron ore
You will break before they blink
Theirs stories are bittersweet
Yet, they tell you
Those were the good old days
You see patterns of great studies in their words
Crude and untainted
Confident and precise
Still, she has never step feet into any classrooms
How can this lot come from them,
Thus far, very broken?
The journey
The firewood
The stories
The history
Was it all a lie?

Far From Just Words
The tone
The confidence
The exotic aura
The symphony of life
Almost as if we have been here before
Leaving the stage in awe and envie
That, which has crippled tall buildings
And turned everything into dust
The destruction of monuments
We too
are complicit.

Far From Just Words
Stand up
Stand up for who we are
Stand up
It’s ok, to be, us
It’s ok,
To walk
To talk
To eat
To dress
The way we want
Far from just words
