CHOICES

Hungry Ghost

This demolishes patience,
The burning choice of no self content
In the anguish for more wealth
Selfishness conquers entire realm of the heart.

Ignorance whilst doomed by means of sin
Entangles the mind within the net of hungry ghost,
A bond of jealousy miraculously rises.

The toil of deception and ego start to increase
Which is the high-quality of worst sin of all
Clenches the soul from progress
Whosoever practices this,
Is bond for eternal emptiness.

Nigeria (Survival)

We don’t break
after a fall,
not even a crack,
after a hurricane.
They most times call
us pretenders
because we never hurt.

They never knew
we are just killers of our pain,
which gives us courage in
breaking out of our chains


My Nigerian Dream

One day I know
We shall wake from this dream

We shall shake ourself from this slumber

We shall all know peace

We shall break the chains of poverty

We shall all be educated

We shall stop hearing kidnapping

We shall stop hearing bomb blast

We shall see the rich helping the poor

We shall stop discrimination

We shall never know hunger

We shall buy a bag of rice with a thousand note,

We shall all afford jets

We shall have good leaders

I just wish I could be alive to see this dreams come through


Grieve

Windled etchings on a disintegrated misfortune.
Dustings scattered past blest feels
adoring tribute will end up noticeably desolate certain.
Inundated with tears, afraid by methods for time,

commemoration to souls since quite a while ago weaved.
Following whispers upon the skies,
paradise is observer to all moans.
Tribute graven for loss of grieve;
capitulated to years falls weathered worn.
Conveyed with the guide of will of lost seasons
words broke down to clean stream past.


Nigeria (Happy Mood)

Credits

We sing happy song together
Doing O.K
The old and Middle-aged
We dont like to be caged
From any rage

Credits

We don't allow any injury,
We don’t allow any disability
to stop our possibility

We get well fast
some call it a blast
Some even said we have arthritis in our bones
Like humid stones
They wonder how we survived
and how we arrived
They don't know God have provide

images.jpg
Credits

We live in Unconditional love
With friends and family for life
We Have love to lend
and a lot to send
We are never judgmental
or sentimental
We just have God’s hand keeping us alive everyday
and giving us a happy day.


Life Issues

The issues of life usually
makes us fall on our knees
for God’s intervention
somehow we find a way to
knowing him at this state.
This are daily frustrations
That we await God
For a sudden miracle,

We keep returning to church
And continue kneeling
but when our desires
have been achieved
we start to drift away and
tend to kneel for them instead.


Modern Woman

She Paints her eye and walks cattishly,
Absorbs in perfumes.
Hang penniless handbag having innumerable cosmetics,
She uses huge makeup which hide her true beauty,
Exotic earrings and fixed nails,
Blonde hairs waggle shabbily among crowded pedestrian,
Pinkish lips gibber bluntly like a blockhead
For she in no way speaks her local language.

images.jpg
Credits

Jeans tightened buttock shakes in a unpleasant way,
Dresses reveal breast shamelessly,
High heel echoes and deafen the passer-by,
She is no longer has homely mortal
Never ignore display and style parades,
Hope to take advantage of utmost contentment.
She just need to find her lost culture.


Parasites

We are so overcrowded with them
these days,
the father of six
they are mostly the handsome of men
usually recognised with drunken eyes

images.jpg
Credits

They walk amongst crowds led
by friends
They prioritize to roam around
Away from the family and responsibilities

But prefer to lodge in Luscious hotels
with unknown females
There brain is encumbered with alcohol
They are frail to toil,

images.jpg
Credits

They lie audaciously
And creates disputes with loved ones
for no reason
They don't deserve our love
but we just have to keep praying
for them to make better choices.
