Tashamania:
Goodevening dear,

I havent gotten your mail yet..

Come on guys, we put saturday because we still want you to have time before the 1st stage.
Not more than 150 words because we dont want epistles, 150 words aint even that much. We do not want stress ourselves, jusr write something sweet about your e-spouse. Or faster still, make a drawing.. use the internet to get ideas, google, wiki, askme.com, anything... Oh, come on..

The problem isn't getting the ideas. The problem is getting enough time to express those ideas.

I have no idea why he even used 'fluorescent' as a noun.

The first line is vague to me. I think the other lines points to the dying of the light, and thus no reflection by the waves of the not-so-calm sea. It sounds like a sailor's point of view. But I doubt it. Might just be a complicated metaphor.

Ordinarily, the sea shimmers in the moonlight, unless the clouds are covering it. That makes sense in the light of the first stanza, where the clouds do not feel sleepy and retire for the day.

From a rapper's point of view....poets ain't good rhymers
Plough and brow do rhyme tho, but its monosyllabic

lol. I think rap is just a variant of rhyming poetry, and all rappers potential poets.

the effect of "night's subtle plow" (drowsiness I think) on him gets stronger (worse).

Literature › Re: Nairaland Poetry Club Chatroom. by Oahray: 5:25pm On Nov 24, 2014

Hmmm... Well, I think this stanza is basically about the effect the night has on him. Heavy on his brows (sleep inducing), and he is quite powerless to resist it.

I must confess, at a glance I had no clue what Wole Soyinka was talking about. Especially after the first three lines.

POEM TO STUDY FOR THE WEEK (African Poem)

NIGHT - Wole Soyinka

Your hand is heavy, Night, upon my brow,
I bear no heart mercuric like the clouds, to dare
Exacerbation from your subtle plough.

Woman as a clam, on the sea's crescent
I saw your jealous eye quench the sea's
Fluorescent, dance on the pulse incessant

Of the waves. And I stood, drained
Submitting like the sands, blood and brine
Coursing to the roots. Night, you rained

Serrated shadows through dank leaves
Till, bathed in warm suffusion of your dappled cells
Sensations pained me, faceless, silent as night thieves.

Hide me now, when night children haunt the earth
I must hear none! These misted calls will yet
Undo me; naked, unbidden, at Night's muted birth

Awww... The club chat thread.

Somewhere far from the NL e-craze
Lives a muse trapped in an icy heart.
Yet somewhere through solitude's maze
Lies poetry the true path.

Somewhere beyond the sharpest bend,
Stands tall, a rascally pen on giant tome
Yes somewhere at the end
There's a place called home.

*spreads customised mat*

Now where's my chalk and slate?

Laudable idea. It does seem a bit too formal and fast-paced though. Hope it can truly be sustained.

AmazingZeus:
how can 82 percent last for 42minutes,something is wrong

the 18% (if it started from full charge) that has gone is what lasted for 42 mins, not 82%. It's simply telling you how long your phone has been running since you unplugged your charger till now, and the current battery level. Running on H+ eats battery faster than edge, even if you aren't downloading.

MissMeiya:
Yep

em... That one go hard small. Requires alot of time, creativity, and at times fooling around. On how many platforms do you guys talk? If you just talk on calls only, you could try chat apps. Share random thoughts at random times, initiate role-play games. Just step out of the regular.

NB: Do this only for serious long-term relationships. Can be energy sapping when it doesn't work out.
