The poem concern a Nairaland moniker, who is known for his excellent writing skills, and careful use words to convey his message, which most times, seems extreme to those who aren't deep in their reasoning. Aside sounding intelligent, the moniker possess a very subtle type of poetry skill which usually leaves his female admirers speechless.

The moniker is also known to some particular Nairaland female monikers to be a chauvinist, as each time matters concerning the home is debated, he never find fault with the man, as he believe a woman is suppose to worship a man. This usually gives him the air of superiority which these female monikers find annoying (to say the least).

The moniker is also known to be repulsed by feminism/feminist as well as anything that has to do with LGBT. The moniker is well known to have used well crafted words on these set of people that usually leaves them running with their tail between their legs.

My life, my creed, my hope
The flesh, the pride, the grope
The stumble, the stuttering, the fall
The truth; the height of divinity's call
In wrath, in joy, the whisper of flesh
The essence, the dwindling, the cash
The tributes of men, the fame, the game
Heaven's doors narrow the eternal gain
I am but flesh and blood-- a man
The struggle of the complexity of postmann

Well done though.

You said so much in the analysis, the info there should have been made part of the body of the poem. You can't know so much and keep it for analysis.

LOL. That's the beauty of poetry, Say so little with just few words.

The analysis is suppose to convey the entire meaning of a poem. Did you read the one I wrote for mimzy? Its just five lines (a quintet) but it says much when I analyzed it.
