"AN ODE TO GARRI" (in Praise of Ikire) Tapped from cassava, Rooted into mother earth. Student's best friend Even when market women become hoarding agents... What happens after a long lecture, Brains emanciated by group works and the sun Hostel...fotress Garri...quickest thought on my mind You make me become friends with other hostel mates, Who comes for you... Though you've cuased troubles amongst roomies Still they settle it with a bowl of you and panla fish Garri o!!! A wonderful friend... Decieving even the wealthy and pompous Who can resisit the 'ijebu' version of you Long live in my stomach... Obada market glorifies you Everyday you are reduced to kongos... What do I owe you ***purewater and Ikire groundnut Long Live the queen...Garri Written by: Badiru Kehinde #LyricalThoughts...

I felt the rage of hunger I remember the pain of thirst I would have looked like hanger If not the motherly care of Garri We embraced garri as apparatus When caught by rich Girlie Cecilia I need one mudu of garri For the experiment on my project You have saved me many times I can't forget the feeling of Garri In the hot noon of Niger/Kebbi When garri become jewelry 2 Likes |
