maclatunji: For Cuddlemii Save your breath The harm has been done Shall we move on |
Re: Nairaland's "The Poet" Competition by maclatunji: 9:14pm On Jul 19, 2012 |
Cuddlemii: Indeed and I have forgiven you #Hehehe. You know within your hearts of hearts that I am right but pride has inhibited you from acknowledging it. Never take people for granted and know that it is not everybody that criticises you that hates you and vice versa. Laughing at your sense of indignation over the matter. |

Tgirl4real: @ Mac, Is that a good or bad thing? It is a great test of one's intellect when you seek to give meaning whilst rhyming. I look forward to putting together more complex rhymes in future. |

I have water on my mind. Water Feed my heart Quench my thirst Refresh my mind Make me feel kind In you there is life Beauty so clear Creatures look so dear They make me feel bright You are abundant You are so scarce This is no farce Neither is it scant Life is water Water is life Life for life Water for life Dedicated to you if you love water. |

ME They want to know me How can that be? I am as busy as a bee Thinking constantly What is? What if? And how can? Questions upon questions Needing daily answers To know me Is to feel me To feel me Is to understand me To understand me Is to recognise me To recognise me Is to be me Crazy! I am the only me If you have ever tried to figure me out or wondered: "who is this guy?" This one is for you. |

THE OBLOQUY by Jacobs Adewale. Credited to the constitution Is the freedom of prostitution, That the yearnings of the masses Are tagged a carcass in the state of ashes. In retrospect lies the embodiment of shame, Making reality a game for infants to become lame; Synonymous to a roller coaster Is the tenets of corruption in a legislative roaster. Is this democratic? As political leaders become renowned dealers and autocratic Possessed with lust for power And stealthily slaughtering hope in every hour. With each dawn Comes a muddling wind Polluting our munificent minds To embrace debacle in debilitation. For too long, We bluff by singing a contrite song; Forgetting our wounded etiolated bones In the quest to cease our conscience contentions. All is bewildered, Knowing not who possess the onus of emancipation; Far from the milieu of regeneration, Segregation continues to deter rehabilitation. When, how Will liberation surface To annihilate these political two-faced tyrants, Who aspire to multiply the sorrows of the downtrodden? I stand anonymous For the earth has been polluted; When the head is rotten, The parts are conserved for direct destruction. Who will salvage all? Some questions are best left unanswered, Till the revolution in evolution is born. 1 Like |

Rumour Mongers Have you heard the latest? Have you seen the newest? Isn’t he the worst? Who says he’s the best? A few questions Emanating from mentions That portray notions And different motions You lot can’t resist Your hearts insist You can’t desist It has to persist Rumour mongers Remind me of fish mongers Peddling stale fish And utter rubbish 1 Like |
