THE JOURNEY SO FAR (Tribute to the December Born) (Episode I) From those eximious ex-impulses To that race involving millions Condemning Papa to a carnal ecstasy Subjecting Mama to a pure h-orny moaning Conditioned the coupledom far engrooving Heralding implant and nestling Of the unbeknownst 'whats'; the 'We' of today. (Episode II) A stage of race thus far won Making the rooting grib and firm In the rayless kingdom of womb The first of twined inevitable prisons Custodianship of which belongs to the matriarch A boon given by The Most High, Allah And made it a mobile kingdom (Episode III) Hallowed incubator journeyed every needed spot Parasitically, though. The source of the strength known only to Him Until yet that moment of heavily groan When the gate to the living world about to open At the break of the divined seventh cloud Under the reign of the ninth constellation. (Episode IV) At distance-apart thresholds Points at which survivors of the 'Being' race Set to set on the new tracks of 'Survival' race Clouded ambience bursted in variances Oh no! And the sight seem strong for some sights And a sight for sore eyes for some Hence in a haste, lochia slid former to the netherworld. (Episode V) Cloud of darkness thus gather Murky dent flag flies higher Dancing to the tuneless songs being put to play As the defeated matriarch flashes back at the agony to be replayed Omi ni ó danù; Agbè k'òfó A refrain that paints such even place And would Agbè be strong enough to dance some replays? (Episode VI) O! Blackout... A dominant scene at some other taking off points Flags fly in half poll length Black eyes stare at the sleeps of content and container Paternal envisaged joys thus fade Placing consolatory mike to the mouths of kinfolk Ó mà se o! Agbè é fó; Omi danù (Episode VII) Gratus! As 'We' see it today Defines the tossing of flags For the Lord, against all odds, holds sway For the 'We' of today At the end of every calendar circle, we hold sway And until tomorrow, it is still the spreading of heydays. Gratus. Gratus. Gratus we say. ************************************ Abdullahi, Ridhwan Adetutu. #éclat On his birthday anniversary, 07/12/'17. Kindly share with any December born relation |
