Alone With My Thought by Niftyrules (Odunayo Ajani) #Mobilebookshelfwaw by Niftyrules(m): 8:32pm On Aug 16, 2015 |
Alone with my Thought I was here with a hope To right the advent of moral decadence Our values which had been loped Hope to leave here better than I met it In this light Sat I at my 'jury table' Where my pen possesses the legal rights to right all wrongs And write all right My pen has got the right Rights to scribble the right words I looked to the left and right No one to beckon at or call for an advice Order than my thought which stood by me Like a righthand man to the first citizen He stood keen Eager to pen down the first thought My nude fingers did the perfect work It was a solitary mission The night toil A great toil with less light to see neither had I much oil My pen easily get fumed up whenever I try rest my wrist It toiled writing folscalp of my heart for the demonstration Not for the world to stand in ovation But for the nation to see the essence of my creation My paper The catalystic Oliver Twist Who will never stop on one; This is fine but can still be well polished That is good and can make the shocker And these can be better only if you try harder It keeps yearning for more As if coming up with a fresh thought was Golden morn I was Here All alone with my thought Stacked up on my brilliant jury box All alone I was like a prodigal son at the junction of indecision Short of plan on what need done Fury fused like a dumb one will fume to anger After relentless night of unrest Yet sat all alone Staring at future's face of uncertainty I stared hoping for the right men on the team Faithful, able men of great repute Men who will bear the cross Men who will say the word the way it was scribbled Placard of our grievances was made Beautifully adorned I got it carved from the great Iroko Polished with the finest of indigo Making It seem like that which the eyes hath not feast on long time ago My spirit got braced up With great expectations Like a jeoy I lept here and there Gesticulating to the air how it will be said In great anticipation for a great renovation Assembled I my thoughts Folded my hands backward like the boss Fed them with the right words Stretched their muscles Jog them round like a horse And test ran them with my toil all night All men on my side, I thought had waited for this all day In my regalia of joy and gladness Dash I off to meet with them So glad that we will finally make the change today I hummed But stepping out to the world I found out it was only me Just me thinking all these Simply I alone Lonely with my stacked pile of thoughts.
