Politics / Re: APC To Fayose: You’re Insensitive Not Paying Ekiti Workers For Yuletide by leki10(m): 9:15pm On Dec 25, 2014
betterabia:


because its apc that left the salary, it will never get paid?

does the worker work for apc or pdp?

are the workers working for fayemi or fayoshe? is it not for the government they work for? so, whoever is in government should pay they workers. infact the governors should be the last to receive their salary after paying the least worker.

I never said dat dey wnt get paid. Fayemi has sinked us in a pool of debt nd Fayose has promised to pay d workers has soon has possible. I believe he will do it.....its beta dan hoping on someone who he is nt paying 4 d monts in dere on tenure like aregbesola.....we know why we voted off APC in ekiti.....osun pple will suffer unda aregbesola for d next 4 yrs.... gudluck to dem

All you blabbing ur spits at fayose nd u ar nt staying in ekiti, jst shut ur shit 4 a moment. Apc govt left 2 months salary of teachers nd 1mont salary of other workers unpaid. Fayose has always paid b4 d 28th of d month since october. Dat APC spokeman is jst high on some cheap beer. As of dis moment, Fayose has paid workers as far as i know (including xmas bonus)... I kno pple who av received. SO FAYOSE HAS PAID SALARY OOO

MORE TO WHAT WE SEE

Told to watch and learn
But kept repeating the mistake,
Cos I didnt observe the errors.
To fly high was in my imagination,
In reality I am soaring high.
The shoes I wear,
Determines my steps to greatness.
Have got to keep it shining.
Just like the sharp pain in the heart,
So also, Like a Stain that needs to be erased.

A smile can make you furious,
Anger can led to death.
Everything has a second phase,
Even the Universe and Life has.
To possess is our property,
Also to lend is your possession.

The Sun is great,
But still have to humble itself every night.
The moon shines brightly,
But still have to give way to the rain.
Stars are breath taking,
But will have to be mute,
When the cloud pass by.
Even High Mountain get scared,
they can suddenly become plain.
No matter the number of years I have,
A day old Angel is to be respected.

WISHES OF HOPE

I wish my wishes could stop being wishes,
But rather experiences.
Which i live on,
Which i learn from.
***
I wish my dreams,
Could be like streams,
Flowing towards a destination,
Heading towards my vision,
As its sole mission.
***
I wish you could give me one chance,
To put me out of this trance,
And actually hold your hands,
So you can cuddle in my arms.
To be your twin,
And you, my queen,
To breathe your breath,
To cause no sweat.
***
I wish I could see the future
Of a nation,
With a formidable measure
Of protection.
Neither ladened
With missing lasses,
Nor saddened
With wailing masses.
I refuse to see a fissured future,
But rather hope for a sutured signature.

Poems For Review / Re: Sweet Nothings: TheScrypt by leki10(m): 9:25am On Dec 19, 2014
Scrypt:
Couldn't sleep decided to write this...

Somebody Lied

Somebody Lied,
And we ate the words as feeds,
Lies they told us as kids,
Beautiful lies that tasted like sweets,
An assurance of tomorrow.

A tomorrow which may not yield,
And even if it did,
In abundance a bounty of seeds,
Seeds not from weeds,
In large bags and not quids,
Such viewed with raised eyebrows.

Eyebrows of the jealous with deeds,
Deeds carried at heart like beads,
Beads which has blinded them with greed,
Asked they'd refute it,
Refute it with words as shields,
An offspring he is.

Somebody lied,
When they said we'd reap,
Reap a plethora of sweet smelling mint,
Mint in multiple bundles the size of pints,
Accrued for days longer than a stint.

We believed,
We believed these lies,
We swallowed them like tea
They turned out to be expired pills,
Pills causing discomfort not just to the teeth,
Stomach rumbling to the scars from these seeds,
Now nauseated we fall sick,
And with regrets we should't have believed.

Somebody lied,
Ruminating we wonder who did,
The red coats who created the deed?
The men in opulence wearing fine prints?
Or the FEC sharing the seats?
Expectant we wait we sit,
We do not care whose head it fits,
The axe of justice must make its hit,
The liar or offspring must pay the fees.

whenever you are chanced. good night
The RENGA is written by two poets. Its a collabo. The first poet writes a HAIKU has the 1st stanza while the second poet writes a couplet. A Couplet is two line of the same length that rhyme and complete one thought. After the couplet, the first poet write a HAIKU again and they both continue simultaneously until the end of the poem. Hope this helps.

Infomizer:

I get but since the acronym is usually a word, then the length of the poem will be equal to the number of letters in the acronym. I'm tryinna confirm if it can have more than 1 verse, say if I'm looking at a phrase as the title.
of course you can use a phrase and it can contain more than a stanza

LOYALTY


Love is your brother
Or should I call you loyal?
Yearning for you
Admist even imposture
Lying is your foe
Till death always truthful
You seem difficult to find these days

Ready to dish out advices.

Helpless is the word.

Mr leki10 I have a question
Please anytime we write a poem,since we are just learners..can you let us know what type of poetry it is? Sometimes we just write without knowing the type,it should help us improve...
Thank you. smiley
Since we are just learning, any type we write will likely be a free verse till you know a particular type and how to write it. That is why i will suggest free verse. Meanwhile, no matter the type you write, makr sure you tag a teacher so that ur poem can be analysed. Thanks.

Example of Renga

The final leaf falls, (5)
The tree branches are so bare, (7)
Autumn has arrived. (5)
Remember Summer's warm kiss, (7)
So gentle, it will be missed. (7)
As the leaves rustle,
And the feet also cracks them,
As we surged forward,
The tornado blew very strong,
As we all scurried along.

FINALLY FOR TODAY

RENGA
Renga, means 'linked poem'. Poets work in pairs or small groups, taking turns composing the alternating three-line and two-line stanzas.
To create a Renga, one poet writes the first stanza ,
which is three lines long with a total of seventeen
syllables – the same structure as a haiku.
The next
poet adds the second stanza, a couplet with seven syllables per line. The third stanza repeats the
structure of the first (another haiku) and the fourth repeats the second, alternating in this pattern until the poem is completed.

Example of haiku

The fingers typing,
The eyes clamouring to learn,
The heart yearns for more.
