GUNNER

My blood is red,
My wounds been pressed,
London's depressed,
Arsenal put to rest,
By unmerciful pests.

I am a gunner,
Tag me a loser,
I'll one day be a winner,
Claimed the problem is with Wenger,
Some think its the players,
I think we need a winger,
All are nothing but wonders.

Our club lacks passion
From the manager's reaction,
The players' action,
To the fans' captions.
I belong to this club even with this hypertension.

Happy World Poetry Day!!!

Hoes everywhere in my country
Running after dicks as if it's got a bounty.
Lately these girls seem to have fear for nothing.
Invite them for the night
They don't think it twice.
You don't even have to name a price.
She tells you the money doesn't matter.
All that matters is just make sure you Bleep me proper.
And if you don't mind.I could even share a brother.

Hoes everywhere in my country
So I stopped looking around for a girl who can love me.
I started looking up at the stars where my dreams are.
Living only for the hustle.
Cos only the hustle seems to pay so to say.
Bitches don't pay you pay bitches.
Snitches don't pay you slay snitches.
And even if u pay dem snitches.
Den still gon keep snitching.
But I'm gon pay no snitch
Pay no biiitch
Cos I owe dem no shiiiit
It's called poetry cos the lyrics got no beat.

Happy poetry day to all real poets and poetry lovers.

On the third bridge

A requiem mass of vehicles,
young and aging,
crawled in pains and lanes,
in their
hundreds
humming
homeward.

A solemn procession for the dying day.

The sun now shooting from behind the clouds,
summing up its hard-earned wage
for which it had tanned the day!

Bodies beaten and roasted in the scorching
heat were being hearsed home,
to different resting places, to rise again a few hours away
at the next day’s resurrection;
for a new world of less gains or more losses.

Some held their heads in their hands – beheaded;
lost in sleep, lost in thought,
to the day that had taken its toll on them.

Not once,
deep-throated sirens harassed
the requiem mass of moving vehicles;
but only a single, bloated gov’ment figure was being
hurtled to some dusk tea-meeting,
where are milked nutrients of State.

Wry smiles made cameo appearances on faces
already consumed in rippling
furrows of sorrow.

Vehicles fumed and lay by the road gasping,
a salvo once or twice, for one last breath.
Exhausted.

Their grieving owners stood in futility,
lost in bare-handed autopsy;
…others were being tugged home!

Far from a struggle. This is the life; our life!

There, ‘Koka stood to the left;
an observatory post
that transmitted memories of now fading knowledge.

Beneath the much laden bridge,
the waters of the lagoon flowed in light-hearted micro waves
returning home themselves
or simply passing into eternity. Ω

Buhari, baba recession

Hunger
There is terrible hunger in nigeria
Hunger brought by buhari of apc
Most nigerians are hungry they have no food to eat

Recession took food away from their tables
The recession attacks all facet of lifes
Recession forced on nigerians by buhari
His second time forcing recession on nigerians
There is no money to attend to everyday life expectations

Laughing boisterously
Living la vida loca
Bouncing around gregariously
Being an envy locally
Belies the actual reality
Despite all well fixed
Despite all well arranged
Despite all being sound
Nothing is missing
Nothing is broken
But my heart

Four Women
Sitting on a row in a bus
Sitting without a buzz
Different in size,shape and colour

Physically one may see just four women
But I see four women;

FOUR WOMEN
with the same thing in common;
Power and strength !

the distortion of images
sight bluring and darkening
touchs not felt
the sounds fading away but people wailiing on top of their voice
the feeling of weakness

feeling love eluding the heart at the sight of the most beloved
hunger ceasing
water looking like blood

feeling of a gentle wind leaving the body
he know it's life going out
In the absence of air he takes his last breath
a man's work is done
a man goes home,home to his maker.
his happiness,dream,love,laughter sets with the sun

the i generation
survives on the u generation
me first meaning you last dont last
creates money without value
consumes but do not create
live without living
and peter out on giant emptiness.

I love me

The womb woos
The earth our world
When the earth is littered
Songs sing lullaby

The tomb woos
The earth our world
When the graves are littered
The knell sounds like O

The grave coos
Tombs woo the wombs
Wombs woo the tombs
Lullaby sounds like a knell

Today is bright
Still I can't write
Cuz am hungry
And very angry
Nigeria Bahd economy
Is making me think of commiting felony
But where is My president
I guess he's relaxing in his residence
Sai Buhari
I can't buy garri
A rubber is now nine hundred
When am having just five hundred
Well I'll just go to bed
Hope my hunger comes to rest

Recession, is seriously taking a TOLL ON THE LIVES of so many in Nigeria. cry

Celebrate the poets

The poets should be celebrated
Poets are special breeds
The breeds specially created
Created by the most high
The most high that created everything
Everything and everyone

Poets bring out beauty of words
The words that are arranged
Arranged in a special way
Special way of construction
Words that are constructed to give meanings
Words that give pleasing meanings and satisfaction

Oh the bad generation

The generation that are valueless
The generation, the people that are heartless
Added no value to their country
The country that gave them everything
But they ruined the country in return

nigeria became ruined
It ruined and everything became destroyed
The destruction makes everybody suffers
nigerians suffer the action of the shameless generation
The generation of people the country is not proud of

pastor ate all the food available on the table; Then pastor lures the house girl to the back of the stable; Pastor feels her chest, admiring those big juicy mangoes; Pastor then tells house girl that it takes two 2 tango; Pastor removes his trousers to reveal the iron rod; house girl is excited and shouts "Glory to god"; Pastor starts on the floor; House girl begs for more; god looks down from heaven; notices they are on round seven; God seems to enjoy the sleaze; for he declares, "THis is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased!!!"

On your cheek I'll draw a map
With a dirty slap
For being a fan
Of that stupid clan

Lo and behold
They cut my ticket
Just this last week
One hundred and twenty three thousand naira
Gone just like that.
