 Poems For Review › Re: Sojourning Mind by timpaker(op): 6:56pm On May 21, 2015 |
Lieutenant Yakubu's Wedding Fitted grassy suit Lights are at its brightest We've seen your Lover, And the 21 concubines that salutes your guests Relax, they knew why you chose her... She's by your side Always, like your heart to your head Lay with her with pride Beneath the flag on your boxy bed She's still like a steel She is, sexy under your arm, The world that we feel, Remain safe in your palm. See how her mouth Is rustling away - Needing kisses above your numb pout, Please kiss your bride As we end today in stride. Dedicated to all the Service men who died that we might live. |

[b]CONFLICT IN THE GRAVEYARD Theme Analysis: The poem expresses the poet's narration of a wanderer on a rave, (rave here is an event where a newly admitted soul in the graveyard is allowed to express its anger in any manner it deemed fit for dying before its time) its action woke up a demon living in an ancient tomb. The demon who was brought back from its long trance was angered that someone was disturbing its peace and that its epitaph in which words it was lost was erased. In stanza one, the poet brings to our notice the presence of a spirit who is running wild in the cemetery while disturbing others who are resting in peace "Upsetting the silence of a stretched sleep" (Line 4). Not controlling its wildness led it to spoil an ancient demon's tomb "cracked the barrow ....". (Line 5) The poet notices that that act would lead to trouble. Stanza two narrates the stage at which the trouble is about to begin and its witnesses - "An owl in its clairvoyance glee refereed..". The poet also narrated how the demon left its remains/skeletons and (Line 9 - 11) also went on its rave, cleaning out the epitaphs on the headstones it could find cuz its own has bn cleaned up (pikin wey say hin mama no go rest, hin too no go rest). Telekinetically being that it did this without touching them. Stanza three opens with a riot spreading round the cemetery "crackles of dried flowers on shattered tombs" - The force was so much that the small bell (tintinnabulum) beneath a cemetery clock rang, signalling the arrival of a much stronger force (Line 13-15). The stanza also opens a rhetorical question from other spirits who have bn rendered homeless by the riot..."On whose sepulcher... would we rest when there is conflict in the graveyard?"..(Line 17 -18). Stanza four, describes the act the demon engaged in searching for who cleaned its epitaph. It as a way marks the grave of the spirits it has searched - "splotching stones of soulless filth..". It manages to find the one who erased it a killed it (Line 22) but wasn't satisfied. Other spirits for the fear of bn metted with the same fate as the one who started the rave called for an intervention from the owners of their souls (Line 23-24). Stanza five narrates how the ruler of 'up' and 'down' came to pass judgement - "two spirits as old as the earth paced the necropolis". (Line 25-26). They expressed there displeasure while inviting the demon - "Looking frigidly disturbed by the peace of the unpeaceful".. Finally, In stanza six, both judges asked why it took it so long to express it grievance (admitting the rave) "queried where its soul has been since....it left its body from its birth of death?" It said it has bn lost in the sound of the song sang at its funeral. The words were also written on its tombstone till it was cleaned off during one of the rave. It then asked another rhetorical question in its bid to know why its peace would be threatened by the rave (Line 31) and the judges couldn't answer its question... It is worth mentioning that the spirits mentioned or described were interchanged from "soul" in order to be figurative - Also the word "its" was used to relate with things that are unseen. The poet begs to be pardoned for the extraordinary vocabularies used in this poem... he was carried away with the pen of Honourable Patrick o. [/b] |

[b] Conflict in the Graveyard Like the gale-force wind that walks unrestrained, A new nomadic soul loiters the necroplis, Clad in dark heavy shadow with restless peace; Upsetting the silence of a stretched sleep Till it perched and cracked the barrow of a forgotten demon, And there begins the conflict in the graveyard. It happened under the coal night; with a bitten moon face agleam, An owl in its clairvoyance glee refereed on anthill-like tumuli. The forgotten demon disentombed and dust off its husk; Trudging boldly onward, upturning telekinetically Any grave with an encomium or an "RIP" epitaph written headstone; Indeed there would be conflict in the graveyard. Crackles of dried flowers on shattered tombs Swirling like a tornadic ring towards a grandfather's clock, Hitting the pendulum above the tintinnabulatum - It was set- a poltergeist has risen! As vagrant souls locked headstones On each other, scampering for a rest place... but on whose sepulcher Would we rest when there is conflict in the graveyard? The demon ransacked all vaults in the necropolis Splotching stones of soulless filth in search of the one who erased its epitaph "How long did I sleep for my epigraph to faintly vanish?" Its claws rumple the nomadic soul till it thawed into oblivion, Yet it raids further; dead souls called their possessors for justice For an intervention into the conflict in the graveyard. Two spirits as old as the earth paced the necropolis, From thunder and quake they made their marks On the scruffy sand; thus the demon marched forward And bent a knee to the eerie and unearthly Looking frigidly disturbed by the peace of the unpeaceful... "I caused the conflict in the graveyard"... Queried where its souls has been since It left its body from its birth of death? It said it has been quietened by the epitaph they read at its rambunctious requiem And words engraved on its tomb till a wanderer mopped it off. "Possessor, is it fair to have a 'Rest' when your "Peace" has been altered? Mum possessors lost judgement. Conflict in the Graveyard. [/b] |

Seun:[b]From my own understanding and frequent visitation... It is a place for relaxation and event. In such gardens in Abuja you get to get chilled drinks (beer), pepper soup, chicken, suya, fish (of any type) plus a live band to watch and listen to after spending your money or getting high on alcohol. It can also be used as a venue for wedding and birthday parties (reception) cuz of its thatch roof (or with detachable canopies and Air conditioner as the case may be). @Op. I'd suggest you take it cuz the price is relatively cheap in my opinion I.e. If it is in the metropolis (AMAC) but I'd plead that you should get a good PR to help you manage the place. His job would be to source for local talents such as comedians and musicians to perform dia during weekends (Fridays especially). Secondly, try and get adequately documented when you get the place if not all those FCDA boys will make money off you through frequent closing of your garden for one funny reason or the other. Lastly, visit places like Eden garden(Utako), Cupa cubanna (Apo) City park (Wuse II) and Rivers Plate (Wuse II/Maitama) and see how they organise themselves. My few cents [/b] 3 Likes 1 Share |
