I woke up early, Sunday morning,
contemplating a shower and what to wear,
drenched in sweat, dullness,
my head throbbing faster than my pulse
my tongue gripping the roof of my mouth,
then nausea.

I rose unsteadily, my knees buckling,
my hands trembling
I stumbled and fell, clumsy.
The wall clock told me five
I tried real hard to plan;
impossible. God, I needed a drink!
I tried to stand on my feet; futile.
Oh, If only I had a helping hand!

Grief, loneliness, I was awash with sadness.
Poor, sad, lonely Adewale- the crown that came,
it's apalling how convoluted the mind could be,
One day a big family,
the next just me.
One match, one can;
condemning flames of fire.

My stage, my call;
their exit to eternity.
Was I impulsive, callous,
or completely insane?
Can the ecstasy provide
for the lives I claim?
How many lives,
Oh, how much blood on my hands!

Fresh beads broke out.
Why was I sweating like a damned 'Christmas Goat'?
I resolved to seek salvation- oh lord, cleanse me!
but how did it come to this?

Priviledged, spoilt and abused- no excuse.
Detested, rejected, a cast-away- yes!
I showed them all!
But who was I fooling?
money, women, drugs,
armed robbery, even rape!
Oh God, have mercy on me!

DID YOU HAVE MERCY ON THEM?

what was that? Oh, my head!
I took out 501 Brandy,
gulped it down like water.
It burnt me, revived me-
I was walking on air again,
back to being immortal.

I crawled back to bed, shivering;
I was suddenly so cold inside
almost like my blood was being drained.
I drifted slowly,
conflicts swirled in my head,
then a voice as clear as day:
"You are a beast my child."
more conflicts,

Was I a beast?
with effort I got up,
put a boiler in a bowl of water, plugged to a socket
then the switch.
what the,
power went off.
I returned gently to bed
sleep closed my lids in an instant,
I found myself in a pit surrounded by fire;
I was in hell
and there was no tomorrow.

Nice and interesting. .u could make it more real,

Nice and interesting. .u could make it more real,

Nice and interesting. .u could make it more real,

Very nice especially the ending.
Cheers
