LETTER TO THE MASSES



Letter to the masses

Labor of the mind is the daily activities of life.

Death is inevitable
Here comes the fall of a
Resourceful giant

A rose of Sharon with veins and blood
Vibrant intellectual chromosomes
Living without a single breath

With expensive jewelries and aso oke on a way to ilu oke
Fools gather together and celebrate the gone too soon
Death of their future seed


Trader in the town hall of ethnicity


Burn them with fire
Pet them with a medium cup of rice and 500 naira
Trade their future for money and popularity
Suck their blood until they have no more strength
Therefore, open your own eyes well, well as a born throwaway hoodlum
Before it move to your turn to cut your own vein
For subsequent blood plant


LIBYA ANATOMY

Lost but found
Home of pride
Seated in werepe forest
The house is now free for all
But no one could pack into it

Water retreat is not the end of the battle
At its second coming all is enemies shall
Flout like an eagle in a stormy wind

SWEEAT NOTHING
Sweet Nothing
Yesterday was the greatest day for every body
Inside today, yesterday is history
I can see the fingers of my wall clock
Moving closer to another day

Everyone congratulate me in advance
I went into my bank account and withdraw all my cash
Because that day must be a greatest another day
Banger in the air and melody songs is been played every where

My father is ready to spend his last kobo on that day
Mother has already ordered for Aso ebi for her friends and families
Friends had prepared surprise package for the day
But after that day I discover that it’s all sweet nothing


POLLUTION

Looking up to the sky
I see it clear
Virus in the mind of the cloud
And darkness behind the sun


The road is swift yet slippery
The sound is sweat to the ears yet unstable
The aroma of the daily meal is fantastic yet
Introduce no one to the dining table
Yes, it is written clearly on the wall “MEMORY DAY”

ADVICE TO THE LIONESS

Stop the wasteful rush
Stop rush for rushing sake
Take your time to flush your cheat with pure water
Please, purge yourself from time wasting committee


WHAT THE PAST CAN DO

Old thing is yet to be manufacture
New thing happen continuously
Life without a past does not worth it
Life experience makes us stronger

POOR CLOWN AT THE PEDESTRIAN (part 1 & 2)

 The snow of today is red, the sun is black and the cloud is white. I am the clown the world is talking about. My home is very close to the pedestrian bridge and my playing ground is at the subway. Early in the day, I hear various clangs of footsteps kissing the helpless floor of my domain. Quickly, I rose to my feet to save the life that I live and that of the floor.  Seeing light in the darkness is illusion due to the season unknown. Looking up, I behold a princess like belle, a lady like bank of beauty and a human like rivers of life. My heart struck and there was no one to rescue the poor rude clown.  I yell to the South and also to the North yet, my voice could not be heard; what a pity story for a man who saw a treasure but could not have it? I walked up to the goddess if I can be giving a chance to ask one thing.  And to my imagination, my request was granted. When she finally opened up and say "proceed" I saw water like fire which went out and res...
