Literature / I Am King by scarphase(m): 7:44pm On Feb 03, 2020 |
I am King. You can tell by the aura I bring. I am King. You can tell by the song I sing. I am King. You doubt? Check out my ring. I am King. The Optimus and not just a fling. I am King. Not to be ignored by any living being. I am King. And this time is my Spring. I am King. I hold the crown from falling. I am King. The one the earth longs to keep loving. 1 Like |
Poems For Review / The Moment by scarphase(m): 7:38pm On Feb 03, 2020 |
Seize the moment. Take the chance. Sometimes you just have to go all out. There are chances that only come once in a lifetime. Throw caution to the wind. Sometimes let go of some inhibitions. All these to feed your ambitions Take the bull by its horns. Never forget that even roses have thorns. Life is like a wheel dishing chances in turns. Be prepared lest your chance burns. Take the best of what life offers. Ensure it stays secured in your coffers. |

Religion / Re: 7 Reasons Why Christians Should Stop Taking Alcohol by scarphase(m): 9:09am On Jan 12, 2020 |
Rubbish! Why does the book od Deuteronomy 14 say we should use our tithe to buy strong drink aka alcohol? I believe the key thing in life is moderation and God has given us the discernment to know right from wrong but for you to quite a section of the bible to support your view isn't right. You cannot use your own understanding to generalize! 28 Likes 2 Shares |

Poems For Review / When I Was Young by scarphase(m): 6:21pm On Jan 01, 2020 |
I wonder where the years went The years of Innocence with little worries The days have gone Moments have flashed past I have grown older I look back at yesterday Oh how I thought I could shape the "tomorrow" then I used to think I could achieve anything I put my mind to Life seemed so easy like it was in cartoons Dreams were conceived Plans hatched Most of which have become wishful thinking as I have come to realise I remember with nostalgia The times I was younger When life wasn't so hard or so I thought Now here wondering why I grew up What really is the incentive for growing Responsibilities, bills and societal expectations These now take away the joy of "adulting" Oh if I could turn back the hands of time I wish I was younger When my troubles were fewer And friends truer 3 Likes |
Poems For Review / Reflections by scarphase(m): 10:10am On Dec 12, 2019 |
You see my smile But deep within I cry You see the laughter But deep within I am drowning You see me fixing others But I myself need fixing I am broken Pieces of me scattered all over the place I am lost Cannot seem to find myself I am screaming for help But all the world sees is my playful self I close my eyes and they think I sleep But deep inside I am wide awake searching For the missing piece For that one thing The one that will lead me home And out of this feeling Lights will shine And I shall smile again Dancing to the rhythm of my heart As I recover from the dungeon I find myself But who would save me When the real me can’t be found As I bath myself in my tears While wallowing in my fears Maybe I should run Far away Maybe I will find comfort in the rain Where my tears and fears will not be visible in the plain But then I have to ask myself Where am I now Why am I where I am Answers that might serve as the compass To lead me out of this feeling And complete my process of healing Then maybe the lights will guide me home And take me back to where my journey began So I can right all my wrongs And finally get to shine This light of mine |
Poems For Review / This Life , I Can't Kill Myself by scarphase(m): 5:24pm On Dec 01, 2019 |
Every day I wake up Hustling hard to ensure I stay up As I chart the course of the day's tasks While hoping to secure money bags Life itself setting different standards Some within, some beyond and so I back down Reaching out for my playlist I scroll down to letter "I" on list There I find the solution to life's problems. Alas! The solution lies in a track As inspired by Brother Timaya This life, I can't kill myself!!! |
Poems For Review / Effortless Beauty by scarphase(m): 4:22pm On Dec 01, 2019 |
Effortless beauty with the body of a model. Voice of an angel. Touch of silk that makes men weak. Effortlessly beautiful is what you are. Doesn't matter if one is near or far. The beauty is obvious. Effortlessly, without thought or any attempt to look it You are just beautiful. Something like when they I say " I woke up like this". If it were for you alone make up beauty salons would have been out of business. Natural juice without need for any additives. You my dear are effortlessly beautiful |

Poems For Review / My Best Kept Secret by scarphase(m): 12:29pm On Nov 07, 2019 |
You are my best kept secret! With you i want to have conversations in the dark. Where our minds and bodies are united Bounded by affections and desire To fulfill fantasies that words aren’t enough to describe Without barriers and nothing standing or coming between us You are the product of the secret conversations I have in my head You are beginning to reach that seemingly impenetrable part of me The dark conversations, taking us to cloud 9 and beyond You are my best kept secret |
Poems For Review / Re: Need For Nairaland Literature - Poetry Reform by scarphase(m): 9:08am On Oct 04, 2019 |
I am happy someone else is givi8this a thought. I had raised it before on one of my posts and even tagged Lalasticlala on the need to move our works to the front page for better exposure. He moved one of my works to the front page and since then I have not seen much from this section there. Who is the moderator for this section. I guess we can start from there. Its disheartening when people say Nairaland is lacking content these while we poets drop works here daily! I dropped 3 works in 3 days and I am sure others have been doing same |
Poems For Review / No Words For The Wordsmith by scarphase(m): 10:26pm On Oct 03, 2019 |
I can't help but admit that I have fallen Isn't it obvious that with you I am smitten The stare of your eyes stings The effect reaching the most impenetrable part of me The thoughts of you This one is beyond words This wordsmith lacks words to say |
Poems For Review / Days In The Life Of A Poet by scarphase(m): 8:13am On Sep 29, 2019 |
There are days of drought When the words don't add up When the rhymes don't make sense The days when the ink quarrels with the pen At such times, I sit and wonder what happened There are days of flood When the words fill the head The problem now becomes how to cook them up The rhymes starting to give orgasmic feelings The ink making poetic romantic rounds on the paper Such times, I just relax and get drowned in the feeling Such a wonderful feeling to be a writer, poet or whatever it is Putting thoughts to words This in itself is self satisfying Only for those who appreciate the art My life, my words all in a single piece Being the promoter of the love between the ink and the paper Letting the ink flow whilst making the paper grin with utmost admiration 1 Like |
Poems For Review / Nostalgic Feelings by scarphase(m): 5:37am On Sep 29, 2019 |
There is a feeling ! You know it will not last You cling to it despite the fact It is akin to a night when the pleasure is good Day definitely breaks and the night ends Yet the feelings derived from the night holds the thought of the day Abbey There is a feeling! You know it will not last Listening to a song You know it ends when the track stops But the pleasure of listening and enjoying the song takes over When eventually it does, you struggle to repeat the feeling The cycle continues This feeling cannot be controlled It is something we are all guilty of This makes us human You cannot fight the feeling Neither can you decipher with whom it will be till it happens Ride with the waves and let the adrenaline rush excites you Afterall life is only experienced once Don't fret, let the feelings flow!!!! 1 Like |

Poems For Review / Shaking Tables by scarphase(m): 7:51am On Jun 18, 2019 |
I want to shake tables! Infact I want to destroy the tables! Who is a father? Who is a mother? Father being male parent Mother being female parent If that is the dictionary meaning ( argue with the owners of the language) why then do we confuse ourselves. Why celebrate mothers on father's day In the same vein celebrate fathers on mother's day The world we live in is just confused Irrespective of circumstances a father is one who begets a child while a mother is one who carried the child in the womb A man is a king while a woman is a queen Never have I heard royalties mixing both What is it with this new gender switch because of peculiar circumstances? Don't make a decision for a child that you will regret in future All in the quest to make the future secure Stay on your lanes. A woman can act like a father but cannot father a child normally Same goes to a man so why the sudden change in roles? This is my mind. This is perception Argue with the dictionary and your internet provider * drops mic like an emcee in a rap battle* 1 Like |
Poems For Review / To The Ones I Love (autobots) by scarphase(m): 6:58am On Jun 10, 2019 |
Life! What goes up comes down For you, when it does fall I'll be around My solemn promise to the ones I love This I pray As I live life every day Chasing this daily bread To ensure you both are fed Life! When you doubt yourself And you lose all hope Remember! Daddy will always care This I say with all sense modesty As I cling to God to help me I will always love my own The Autobots, the ones I love |

Poems For Review / What The Wise Man Said by scarphase(m): 7:45am On May 30, 2019 |
A wise man once said NOTHING!!!! Not for lack of what to say But he knew that by being silent He had spoken Only for the equally wise to decipher A wise man once said NOTHING Because sometimes action rather than words resonates louder He knows that the audibility of his voice isn't a show of power He said NOTHING but conveyed more thoughts than when words were spoken. 2 Likes 1 Share |
Poems For Review / Two Prayers, Same God by scarphase(m): 8:35am On May 26, 2019 |
This is a tale of two prayers to same God One wakes up and starts to chase the other In the process, he prays to God He says feed me oh God Whilst running with all his might This is a tale of two prayers to the same God One wakes up running for his dear life In the process, he prays to God Save me oh God This he does whilst running with all his strength This is a tale of two prayers to the same God Both with utmost heart desires Both of significant outcomes But the outcome of which is left to the almighty The answer? Well! That's why God is God |
Poems For Review / Say Me Well To The Years by scarphase(m): 7:03pm On May 06, 2019 |
Say me well to the years as I add another Say me well to the years, my fears I conquer Say me well to the years with gratitude for lessons learnt Say me well to the years as I wonder where all the days went Say me well to the years as I add another Say me well to the years, the three decades I conquer Say me well to the years for the times my heart was stolen Say me well to the years as I remain sober for the hearts broken Say me well to the years as I add another Say me well to the years, the times of loneliness I conquer Say me well to the years in which I made the red bus discovery Say me well to the years as she helped my recovery |

Poems For Review / 'of Sleep And Death by scarphase(m): 1:38pm On Apr 07, 2019 |
'of sleep and death Similar yet different Eyes shut Mind wandering Eyes shut Mind cut short Soul wandering To a destination yet unknown Both alike Yet different 'of sleep and death Drawn and defined by breath Lungs pumping air Heart in a state of rest yet functional At the point of death It all counts for nothing Blessed is he who wakes from sleep And to those who know the point it ends Life is of sleep and death With each sleep ,death draws nearer Without the sleep, death still isn't far off Sleep well For life is of sleep and death Incoherent words from my head on a rainy Sunday afternoon 3 Likes |

Don't be ashamed to cry Not even even in the event of failure Cry you tears Let out your fears The flow will help you grow As you recover from the blow Don't be ashamed to cry Not even when you get emotional Weakness isn't a disease Neither does it make strength cease You are only human And will not always get what you plan Don't be ashamed to cry Not even when you win Life is filled with hills and slopes Man proposes but God disposes Such is life You win some and lose some 3 Likes |
