30 Days Of Poetry Season 2, Day 24, Abuja Sun (pix Inside) by lyricalpontiff(m): 6:54pm On Jun 24, 2016 |
Abuja sun is not your friend, so I was told I crept into this city in search of gold I was drunken for the city and couldn't keep calm A job here and a hot chick will be my soothing balm It is a sunburnt city with signs and wonders I miss PortHarcourt rainfalls and thunders The asphalt of Abuja already know my sole From Jabi to Apo is just a short stroll Now money has eluded me, no job not even oguaja A city without conscience, O! Wicked Abuja But in PortHarcourt my wage was mere pittance No much suffering, no walking for long distance I have knocked doors in almost every street Today my shoe has given up under my feet I sit on a kerb and watch as my shirt soaks Sweat and tears flow like fountain, bracing sun's strokes Home beckons, I can't cope with this baking weather It has been one shut door to another Yet my pride keeps urging me to move on I'm fighting two wars; hunger and this unkind sun I can no longer roll stones from base to summit I will rise and go back home to feed on my vomit The sun here is hot but the girls are hotter I'm folding my plans of dating a senator's daughter .I will fold my dreams and cv into little bundles Abuja wasn't made for me, so many hurdles My pride will wrap itself on the waist of my pain "Abuja my greener pasture " never again...
