MOST GRACIOUS ONE

Save me now my father.
Your child needs you more than ever.

From the demons he has extended full invitation cards to, redeem him
From the mire trap which his foot is stuck in, save him.
From the indefinite strike which has grounded his progress, save him.
From the liverpool -like club which has stopped my dream, transfer me.
From the Arsenal-like situation which does not offer any advancement, save me.
From the Costa - like pride which has eaten deep into my self, help me.
From the the Wenger - like leech which has refused to leave me despite my best efforts, save me.

Jesus I need thee.
Temptations abound around me.

Like wolves around a prey, they circle around,
Waiting for a chink in my amour .

Like Barca players around a box 18 of an opponent who is defeating them 1:0,
They await any small lapse in my defense.

Like a stubborn child whose mother has just prepared jollof rice,
They await me to sleep so they can plunder.

Like a patient but deadly Real Madrid counter-attack,
They wait for me by the church gates to attack after I am done with the church service.

Like a wall lizard which lays very still while hunting for the flies that flock around the bulb,
They act like they are gone and then return in full swing later on.

Like an army led by Odessyus himself,
They prepare a Trojan gift to mask their evil intentions.

Like a swarm of yoruba demons wearing agbadas,
They study the book of seduction in order to lure me.

Like a secondary school student who is desperate to sleep with any girl,
They sugar-coat their tongues with 'do as I say' charms and fill their fingers with 'follow me' rings.

Beeni o
My temptations do these and more.
And that is why I need you my God.
