Chastising Words Of A Solitary Beggar by Writertainer: 4:34pm On Feb 01, 2017 |
Fate has decided True! For solely on this corner I sit If mourns were trailers, Mine left first in the morning Long before others were awake Thus first at heaven’s gate But lo! Not a whisper came by As a true and comforting reply Behold, I philosophize Because my solitary mind reasoned And rejected what folks settled for as wisdom I, alone seem to swim In this ocean of reason and reality, knowledge and wisdom I am a good swimmer But I claim not monopoly Over the things in my mind For my mouth is tempted dumb but I must speak The enemy to man is man An invitation to death And standing ovation it got at its advent on earth It breeds greed and the canticles of malice. Oh! My spirit Do not put water in my mouth For Pete’s sake allow prophecy to prevail. I was born crippled A natural condemnation at birth My mouth is thirsty But I find no water to drink My peace is true peace Because long ago I accepted fate’s nightmarish decision as reality But I ask! What’s in the heart makes evil a guest? An arrow aimed at a friend’s back Look back! A friend’s dagger ‘bout to stab you Hahahahahahaha! I laugh out loud For pretense thrives When a man kills a friend And he cries on his death bed. Put your eyes in the water Ensure vividness Cos’ the most with dreaded poison Is delivered with a cherubic smile The volume of the earth Filled to the brim by deceit I walk this wilderness alone in joy Better I experience neglect than deceit What makes a brother kill his blood? My ear tingles but my mouth is bold. I do not seek vengeance But blood is revenge Cos’ it intoxicates illusively And it clears upon destruction. Why struggle for the property of the dead? For what belongs to the dead is of the spirit And if inherited breeds death if mingles with strife What makes a man sleep with his daughter? Heaven-in-council heard and adjourned I wonder what sprouts this seed of evil From hell, are there more in stock? For incest is rampant Bloods sleeps blood An abomination, aberration and desecration to life Incestuous life is evil-lordly. What makes a lady return true love with pretense? With an eye, ready to squander Like a madman grasping at Anything within reach The pedigree of true love is dented In my mind’s eye, When a lass says I love you I see a squander maniac For our generation has made her so! Night calls My eyes long to close Preserve my words They are willing to please For before parousia comes At the leverage of righteousness The exeunt of evil to let the light prevail The words you heard is a proof that will nail you “If thou would forsake me oh lord The hope in my eyes would sleep” http://www.naijagong.com/2017/02/chastising-words-of-solitary-beggar-by.html |
