LiteratureRe: Four Lines. by profagbaje(op): 3:50am On Apr 12, 2024
I'm outside sitting on a car,
Watching the clouds drift by,
The stars, tonight, are rather shy,
My thoughts however, seem near, but quite far.

I'm not all surprised,
My messages went unreplied,
And those that did,
Didn't have a kind deed.

But I'll show them,
I come from resolute stem,
We always have made a way,
Out of every cloudy day.

I never knew how,
Until they turned me down,
Made me into a clown,
An unserious, insignificant cow.

The morning bears down on my resolve,
But I need not be lazy,
Although it's a bit hazy,
Times like this bring out my hustler's love.

I fear no fall,
I'll stand up tall,
Walk up, and open that door.

Humble beginnings seem very far,
When we consider the rich and famous,
Quite impossible to be at par,
But wait, everything's possible and that's not so ridiculous.

CultureTAX: A Culture Of Avoidance by profagbaje(op): 3:03am On Apr 10, 2024
Nigerians hary pay tax, and those that do are coerced into doing so or have no choice in the matter, say, when such is added to their purchase at point-of-sale.

But the questions is this: is paying tax such a bad thing?

We read of some Nigerian big men hiding their wealth in 'tax havens'; only brought to light bulb leaked documents online. If paying tax were not punitive, Why'd they go all the way to the ends of the earth to avoid it?

FIRS recently mentioned widening their net to include those that earn income doing whatever they do online - content creators have as a result come out to voice very strong reservations stating that the taxmen never bothered about their source of poverty hut suddenly wan tot tax their creativity? "DEY PLAY!"

So, again, I ask: is paying tax punishment?

Methinks words belittle,
How deeply my feelings run,
My desires constantly burn,
Like a steamy kettle.

Fondly stroked,
Beautiful life,

Words of love that I seek,
Letters have failed me,
Here I am, lost, on the open sea.

Under the moonlight,
You want me so bad,
To resist you is pretty hard.

Your curves are geographic wonders,
Each time, I get lost in your intoxicating magic,
Here I seek no answers,
I'm bound to your sensual traffic.

Fly to me, my precious dove.

Blue coals of fiery wonders,
Grace like I've never seen,
My sexful, dancing Queen.

He's nearer than we perceive,
Ears that pick up silent praters,
Gives me more than I'm worthy to receive,
Several blessings on different layers.

Kiss me with your words,
Caress me with your soothing eyes,
Feed me with truthful lies,
I want to drink your intoxicating words.

The distance between us fuels our desire,
Our words set us on fire,
That we are friends is mere denial,
A moment longer, will put me on trial.

What do I do?
Not again, to taste love, as sour as lime?

It roars with a thunderous peal,
Daring anyone to become champion.

Daily we struggle to get some meat,
We leave home early to hit the street,
Tired at night, with smelly feet.

Trapped N2,000.00
Okadabooks has refused to pay me the 2K I put in my wallet years ago. Why?

Anyways, that aside, the owner of Okadabooks should simply have looked for someone to buy the business from him, even if at some loss. I don't know why Nigerians do the things they do, really?

I'm sure someone out there would have bought the business & made it work - even better.
After several messages to an unresponsive customer service, I have left Okada Books to the GODS of this land. They went away with my NGN2,000. 'Jobless Musings' & '4Lines' bodies of work I was looking to finish up & publish.

You should equip yourself with the necessary tools for interaction without unnecessarily displaying this level of idiocy. Always resist the urge to be an unfortunate orangutan.
