safarigirl: Alomo

All he wanted was some money
A naira or a penny
He didn't get the cash
Still he went to Mama Bash
Gisting with some friends
Stories that had no end
Men with no ambition
Living without caution
They drank this spirit
It drowned their spirits
Their love for alomo
Would leave them a la mort

**don't like it much**

Bokoharam and bomb

Kaboom! kaboom! kaboom!
resonated the deafening sickening sound
children scurried
women hurried
men, left in utmost dismay
entrapped in a terror display
i have seen this before
no, its not a deja vu
i use to watch it on CNN
i cant believe its already happening here
in our own dear country
leaving us in a state of endless fear
but the culprits are faceless
a name without a face
doesn't seem to make sence
Bokoharam
like the slaughtering of a ram
bloodily you have caused so much harm
how long will it take you to calm
when will you lay dowm your arms?
when you see a child without an arm
or a man who can no longer farm
begging for alms because you took away his palm
doesn't it ring an alarm?
were those the teachings of the Imam?
you are an epitome of doom
you, your bomb and its boom
soon you too will be doomed
we will sweep you out of this room
like the dust with a unified broom

Idowuogbo and pidgin

"Do not speak vernacular"
those were the instructions of Mrs Betty
she had taught Queen's English for six years
grooming her students with proper lexicons
those effort proved futile

Mama had done her best
incultating it from infancy
the Mother tongue
just so her daughter,
will not only learn Oyibo

But Idowuogbo stood out
negleting both Mother tongue and Queen's
this is what she learnt from the area boys
the language of the Portuguese traders
now she speaks it more than the market women traders
