WHEN I SAY NO I FEEL GUILTY When I say no, I feel guilty Even if its the right thing to say Sometimes its to a friend Asking for something I cannot give. When I say no, I feel guilty It might even be to my bar Sometimes I act like I do not send. Like I an so insensitive. When I say no, I feel guilty To the guy asking why In the exam. He has me only to depend This joke is getting expensive. When I say no, I feel guilty Sometimes I ask why But if I live just to pretend And I am called sensitive When I say yes, I might feel guilty too. © Chukwumerije Somadina #APoemADayForAYear #Day8of365 |
JUST LIES We don't pretend when someone dies Not out of fear that they might resurrect But just to correct the lies We told, when they were still erect His story told like he was there Oh, what a wonderful guy he was Loved everyone like his dear Maybe if he knew, he wouldn't be was. Laid to rest like a king In a casket made of diamonds Wore golden rings His name was Raymond Buried like a king Lived like a poor man. © Chukwumerije Somadina #APoemADayForAYear #Day7of365 Appreciate the living now they are alife. |
SOMUADINA What is in a name? That is the question we ask Not chosen because of its fame For ahead lies a task. They said together we can go far Holding each others hands But can I ask you a question sir? What if no one takes my hand. For if I am not meant to be alone But to carry everyone along Why does the world feel like a stone? A place I don't feel among. Because I have seen enough of this world Just like it's sitting across me at dinner But despite these woes My son, your name would be SOMUADINA. © Chukwumerije Somadina #APoemADayForAYear #Day6of365 |

OUR FATHER Our Father, who art in heaven Give us bread, even if it's not leaven I am the second out of seven And our oldest is just eleven. Hallowed be thy name Which though not written in any hall of fame The pains of the cross, only you overcame To set with love, the heart of man aflame. Thy kingdom come Shining with light, burning from thy wisdom Which thou will share gladly to anyone who overcomes The rules of this world, which seemeth like the right custom. Thy will be done on earth Where thou through death Gave us a rebirth That we might flourish in health, which conquers death. Chukwumerije Somadina #APoemADayForAYear #Day5of365 05/01/2017 |

AWAKE Gifts from the gods lies therein In the heart of every man Who seeketh it, to find. For somedays I am left to ponder These secrets, which I have come to know Lies therein, but rumbles like thunder Only if we would let it grow. Gifts from the gods lies therein But here lies a man who blames the gods For that he deserves not, but is still therein But here lies a man in mud Only if He would wake that which lies therein I know two kinds of people One grows and one kills I know two kinds of people One wakes and one slumbers I know two kinds of people THE GREAT AND THE UNGRATEFUL. © Chukwumerije Somadina source: https://thinkinwordx./2017/01/02/awake/ |

12:95 It was 12:95 when the bells started ringing deep in my mind, making me feel like a rebel, cause I have been fighting sleep. It was 12:95 when my mind went blank as the paper stared back at me asking "Why are you awake?" It was 12:95 when my brain made the call to my eyes, telling it to shut it's doors, it was getting too late. It was 12:95 when I stared at page 267, all I could see were scrambled lines cause my eyes picked the call. Then I realized the eyelids were not the doors to the eyes. It was 12:95 when I bowed to page 267, rising, only to bow again. The bells kept ringing, "Why are you awake?" It was 12:95 when I bowed again, not to the page and rose again, because these push-ups could really help. It was 12:96 when I turned to page 268. Awake I must be. But why?

HOW MANY TIMES How many times have I been told to think outside the box When what they really meant Was to lock myself in a box And if they had to, they would gladly pay the rent. How many times have I been towed towards perfection But ended up just as imperfect Thoughts borne out of great obstruction When the world questions, will I ever be correct? How many times have I been toyed, that I can be all I wanna be The truth half-told can really be destructive The times I believed, I was led to see The path so strict; where art thou creatiVIty? How many times have I been stowed away Locked inside a box of rules Hoping one day, to find my way To the land, where I rule. Chukwumerije Somadina #Day1of365 #APoemADayForAYear #01/01/2017 |

SHOOTING STAR ****** Today I am, Tomorrow I am not What am I, the world wonders Just like a movie, my stay is cut Gone, they think I am, where is he?, they ponder :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Particles of life, particles of death Cling all around me, parasites! As I drift through the waves of life Today I am here, Tomorow I am there ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: A rare spectacle, the world predicts my arrival As glorious as I come, death seems to be my rival Friends I make not, life too short for that Each time I fall in love, my heart is pierced with a dart Cupids dart, I want But today I am, tomorrow I am not. ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Laws of physics broken, just like pieces of my heart Fast I move through life, with particles all round me Am just a SHOOTING STAR I am not here to stay Because Today I am, Tomorrow I am not. ***** By Chukwumerije Somadina© ::: please help review this poem |
Tribute to The Legend It is said Pride comes before a fall. The life of Muhammed Ali proved otherwise. He was Fast. He was Strong. He was Great. And he was Proud. Defeated Sonny Liston at 22 years old, a man thought never to be beaten and declared himself the greatest boxer alive, a title that stayed with him till his death today. He refused to go to war at Vietnam because of his religious belief which cost him his heavy weight champion and 5 years of his life. Respect! He stood his ground, and in 1971 the united states overturned his conviction to fight. He returned to the ring to reclaim his title and lost to Joe Frazier in the fifteenth round in a match dubbed "the greatest fight of the century". The greatest lost. His first professional loss!. He fought George foreman, the man who defeated Joe Frazier in 2 rounds. Ali won and he said and I quote " I told you all of my critics that I am the greatest" Ali won Joe Frazier in the fourteenth round. "When you say the greatest of all time is in the room, everyone knows who you mean" said by President George bush while presenting himself the highest civilian honor of United States. If Muhammad Ali was proud, why didn't he fall. Well he fell to the Parkinson's disease today at 74 and it wasn't because he was proud. Muhammad Ali is the greatest fighter of all time, a champion in the ring, a champion of civil rights. He was more than boxing. RIP Muhammad Ali.

Have they called any reconsidered persons? |
There is an overwhelming amount of media to consume in 2016. You can catch up on the latest episodes of a network TV show, go to the theater to watch a multi-million dollar blockbuster, log in to Netflix to binge on the latest original series or jump on a PlayStation 4 to play a 60-hour game. With so much content at our disposal, it’s easy to just give up and watch Seinfeld reruns, which is why it’s always nice to have a list of suggestions from others. Last year, BBC Culture polled film critics from around the world in order to create a list of the best American movies of all time.

Suigeneris93:I don't know anyone who got a job at CBN, but I know okonjo iweala, former managing director of world bank, former minister of finance. That one no pass CBN work?. Everyone says you should have a knowledge of how the outside world works. Correct!! but many people don't have first class and don't also have knowledge of the real world. Where do you want to belong ? 1) First class and knowledge 2) No first class and knowledge 3) None of the above. |
Third class mentality everywhere. before you criticize first class make it. Bill gates, mark zuckerburg, didn't make first class, but they dropped out because they had an idea that was manifesting. |
I was reconsidered Should I send the documents in PDF or JPG? Since Uniport is not in session, I don't have some letters they said I should send, but I will send them all I have. |

Who is better? Does it matter? As far as they fulfilled there potentials Achebe is one of the founders of African Literature, and others are learning from him. We the modern writers can't possibly challenge him there because, he was born when Africa was Africa, not all these modernizations. He saw Africa Happen. |
