Poem Writing.... Let's Improve Our Mind. by Nobody: 3:12am On Dec 09, 2015
Am a lover of Literature. Until I took out time to read lots of literature textbooks when I was in SS1, I always found literature so boring. but now, its like a change of phase, I now love literature, and most especially poems. I now love poems to the extend that I can now recite my favorite poem 'homeless not hopeless' with ease. and I have longed to write poems, so if you are a lover of poems like me maybe here is the perfect place were we would be trying a few Lines out.

Gbagun! Gbagun! I heard from the rear
Like the war is horrying near
saddle the donkey with a perfect gear
caurse kingdom heads are bound with fear.


Alas! Alas! the warriors Cried
No more food and no more wine
Left overs from their favourite kind
Alas! Alas! the kingdom cried.


quik! quik! shout his men
hundred at once ran accross
they ran accross and out of sight
bravo! said the king from atop.


Gbagun! gbagun! I heard from the rear
Like the kingdom is free from fear.

With strong imagery and rhythm. I love it.

You promised me your world
The day you crashed into mine
You promised me every hour
while you were wasting all of my time

You promised me the ocean, and even the rivers
And I was drowning in your sea
You promised to be there
But now all I have left is me
You promises were lies
Only words filled with deceit
Cause when you gave me your love
You threw mine on the street

I want to do some poetic Analysis on that gbagun, but probably it would be tommorow or should I say later today as tommorow is even here already.
Gud night

gbagun is about a kingdom that was Living in piece and hamony. One morning a nearby war chariot passed through their kingdom, so the kingdom was greatly disturbed and they were running helter skelter. the king odered one of his courtier to saddle his donkey so that he can flee.

In that early morning, the soldiers cried out they were not ready for a Fight as their is no food to feed their stomach nor any leftover wine to make them vibrant, they just lied helpless and so is the villagers.

Then sudenly, men from the war chariot shouted, Quik Quik, Indicating another direction, and hundred of soldiers ran accross. as they ran out of sight, king started shouting bravo from the top of his donkey.

Then, another gbagun is heard, but this the clattering sound of the villagers in happy mood because they are free from what they thought was a siege from the Enemy.


The poem is seen from the eyes of a common villager who stood the chance of examminig the whole event.
