- Google By Numbers
I've noticed an interesting trend lately, whereby a writer makes an expository point by way of an offhand reference to the sheer numeric quantities of a Google search. For instance: Patricia Marx, in a recent article on sale shopping in the poor...
- Where We Live (poem)
We live here where love comes in wrapped words tongues mumbling in the belly of the words we live in a maze where razor-in-cheek cutting through the heart wastes words on deaf-dumb... where wounded words seized by the jungle in return for justice become...

I knew this much much earlier I knew you were not just a flower but the hidden treasure of my secret dreams yes, I know? these waves shall forever roll on, breaking on the distant cliffs of our yearning hearts to soothe our souls your beauty, fresh like...

Swelling foes can only stir the star in the eagle heart to stare the eclipse in the groin raise the last battle roar and strike, strike strike to carve a smile on the rock and let granite smile hasten the day! © Sumaila Isah Umaisha...

Let your heart speak my mind (poem)
I plead for passion
you show compassion
rock of a hug
crushing my heart
broken hearts fleeing
the mire outgrow
the bounds and flop
manure to the swamp
homes, dark corners
of our rooms, are
the actual battlefield
war is for the brave
where mud houses
are mere dreams
love grows homeless
wild and brief
so let your heart speak
my mind, broken fences
mend our hearts and
bury alive all our sins
you show compassion
rock of a hug
crushing my heart
broken hearts fleeing
the mire outgrow
the bounds and flop
manure to the swamp
homes, dark corners
of our rooms, are
the actual battlefield
war is for the brave
where mud houses
are mere dreams
love grows homeless
wild and brief
so let your heart speak
my mind, broken fences
mend our hearts and
bury alive all our sins
