FAKE PROMISES Taking us for cheap fools, during the time of the pools, our children they used on thugs, while theirs studied in comfort abroad. They try to lure us with bags of rice, making electoral noises like lice, their fake promises filled the air, because they think we're the hunger pair. Then we fell for their lies, and their fakeness destroyed our lives, their promises buried in an early grave. and our problems multiplied by an octave. Our roads are no different from death traps, as people die there everyday in piles, our schools, a pathetic excuse of one, as our children strive day and night to learn. We strive to earn a living, but kleptomaniac tap on our income without reasoning, we start afresh to battle, while our income serve as another man's mantle. Those who promised us enjoy their lives, on our sweat they feed on all, fake promises. 5 Likes 1 Share |

THE SUN The sun, a bright gift given to man, to light the way through the day even as the night quickly came, the sun beautifully fades. The sun even as unruly as it is, interrupting fearlessly the quiet time of lovers, with its rays, it threatens their eyes and its brightness their bodies. The sun even as beautiful as it is, shines even on the bad, to radiate its beauty on their evil, a beauty without partiality The sun even as powerful as it is, forcing itself to shine even in the rain, slowly withdraws once it's dusk, because even in its strength, it knows its time. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

GLAMOROUS TROUBLE Man mate with himself, Woman bethrot to herself. Corruption,now the best food, Absurdity,now the best rule. Tattered men on Ceasar's robe, Tied down mentally,psychologically by bondage's rope. Yet,he feel relieved. Yea,she in destruction believed. Who will save us; the sea rumble, From the glamorous trouble? Let hail come i pray! Disorganise their hood i say. Let honour flee from them, That maybe they'll regain their sense. But can that thing toss Or will have them all doze? Alright! Divorce foolishness, Thy body is not cardboard, Why imprint on it with ink blood? He is he and not she, Let he he and she she. Absurdity should be not thy food, Else to the creator you're a fool. Pierce us not again with thy folly, Thy acts incur on us wrath from the holy. Thy ebullience may metamorphose, If by heart you make not the right choice. Ebony of disgrace, Cauldron of our race. Ace in sleek-destructive plan, That had deflowered our clan. Save us!-;who will save us;the sea rumble From this glamorous trouble? c.2017 |

OPELE Seek that which seems lost In the bowels of mystery Hidden is the divine Displayed openly, yet cryptic Why did the sacred totems run With all their maleficent spirits? Who ate the golden coins With a meal of fowls, and goats And concoctions of obscenities? Perhaps the new divine Lies in hidden codes Of ones and zeros In a cathedral full of webs What if the *Opele that run Is now binary? • Opele means The string of beads used in consulting the oracle, Ifa Veteran_Writes |

Reason Why I Want To Be Rich Reason Why I want to be rich People say When I'm rich I’d afford everything anything go everywhere Liberated from lack A dude once said He wanted to be rich so bad So he could dine With Queens Different cities every night Youths desire for riches The desire to buy best of all Honestly, there's nothing Wrong with having possessions But possessions having you Is odd Scripture says:“I’d bless you so you can be a blessing…” This is the reason for true riches The reason for having That which others Don't have nor possess Many homeless are scavenging for survival GOD didn’t make it so They just can’t help the circumstances Ephesians 4:28 says:"He that steals Shouldn't anymore but let him do something useful So he could provide for those who are in need.” This is why I want to be rich 1 Like 2 Shares
