As I give myself this
Constant reflection, I imagine,
My inner feelings broaden
Your beauty accentuates your trousers
Then I fall to grounds
Week Two Winner - Kwame Acquah Storbee
The Landmines
No doubts feuds abound,
In this love I found.
But lo, I am bound
Not placing her t’ ground,
A landmine it may sound.
Week Three Winner - Paul Forjoe Junior
In Five Lines I write, In Five Vowels I Might
Abuse accordingly, an act astronomical
Evolving egos, eclipses, even explicit
Inconclusive idioms intertwined in irony
Odd orgasms outstanding on offer
United unilaterally under unseen unison
Week Four Winner - Philip Boakye D. Oyinka

You were taught to run
There’s fire on the mountain;
But stay where you are
The sea is my tenant,
Let fire call his boast.
Week Five Winner - Nana Kwesi E. Dadson
Love
Love runs our hearts through
To make the skies blue,
It is one but two;
Abstract but true
It’s us, me and you.
Week Six Winner - Sharon Tracy Phonos
Untitled
The trees are my home
And I wonder if
It is my soul’s song
To breathe sweet scented air
And never forget my roots.
Week Seven Winner - Edzordzi Agbozo
Husago
When our sunset draws near
Oh, let the old old
Backwards forward dance: Husago
Lead us to the other
Phase of life.
