IF ONLY THE CITY CRIES by Adut Loi Akok
Adut Loi Akok is a generational mind who bends the energy of social phenomena into music. The ability to see multiple dimensions of the thread of a thought is extraordinarily pronounced in this poet’s most exciting work. A necessary voice in a time where we suffer both imperialized genocide and, a distant but stubborn second, imperialized boredom of the spirit. Where they beat us and beat our shadows worse. Where centuries and centuries of our creativity have come down to a people’s survival, here is food for a liberated era. Asserting that our piece of the earth is not suspended in de-animated history; that we are not prophets marching to our slaughter. These poems are a return to sacred power from a poet of no material nor temporal limits.

Holy Crimes (Poetry) by Elove Poetry and Vincent de Paul
Brief Summary
Holy Crimes is a collection of crimes of love, the little things lovers do oblivious, innocently, inadvertently, sometimes deliberately and guiltily.
The joys of love are compacted in the mystery behind the history love has written since time immemorial, it continues to write and shall write even in days to come.
When that one single day the lover wakes and feels fluttering like a butterfly, dancing like a dervish, butterflies rioting in them thence they commit the crimes.
When love ends and life has to continue, the lover commits the crimes. Crimes of love, Holy Crimes, that the lover gets away with, and shall get away with.
Paracletic Communion by Jacqueline M
It has really changed my life,
Brought life to my dry bones,
Given life to my lifeless situations.
It has made my soul that was so void Turn into a complete and lifeful one.
It has turned my loneliness into solitude.
The lone space that would eat me up,
Now renews me as I only get there to commune with You.
Oh! Holyspirit my Lord.
Being with You.
