RAT HOUSE ...a poem by Ogbonna Lazarus From my corner of our room, I see the rodents roam As tenants will do When their rents are due. Yes! Our rent was due So I told the rodent ‘Sir, Rodents don’t rent’ He said, and to his corner went. To rid the room of rodents And rid the rodents of rents I made the rats-bane But the attempt was vain. And so we lived rat-racing The room, half to each And the rodents out of reach Until we heard someone knocking. It was the landlord Came for his rent So I handed him my cent And to my corner went. “And the other half” he cried! The room Sir, partitioned Have we, I and the rodents Half to each, half to each. The cents Sir, partitioned Must we, the rodents and I Each a rent Each a cent. |

Heart of a goddess…a poem by Ogbonna Lazarus Men of all colours and kinds And those of all tribes and clans Have gathered to war For the heart of a goddess The goddess of eternal love The good and ugly and yet The wanted and unwanted Of all seething hands and hearts Of men, stirred to lay siege Upon the goddess and her Island Nine million men fought And Aphrodite kept watch And men warred and died For the gift of the goddess Gift of eternal life and youth And I too not in the least But armed to the teeth Took my sword and set sail Warring for the life of my soul The heart of the goddess Nothing was left behind Men warred for love unending Many lost…and lost their minds Sinking deep to Davy Jones locker And be left thereafter with no heart But the last-man standing Had life everlasting As the goddess had his heart Taken and kept in the chest There it neither grows old nor dies. |
