HOMELESS NOT HOPELESS

HOMELESS NOT HOPELESS

In the words of Agu
'I saw terrible things'
A rage of angry battalions
Exasperated they came with no mercy
Razing off our zone of comfy.
This is war full of hatred
Who will save me? I'm still sacred
In the ocean of blood,
I could see my kith and kin
The sparks of fire that soar
has behead their souls.
Here I am as a waif
With my heavy bag
I cried lonely
In the middle of my native street.

All nights,
It became part of my existence
The anopheles under the bridge
Bag packs laid on stinks
With endurance
The night inject me with cold and no cozy.

All days,
I moved on with my burden
Crying and begging shamefully
For alms I was never socialized with
Inevitable for me
Necessary part of my society.

Dear Angels of the heavens gate
Find me in the middle of the deads
A sign of breathing is still in me
Cos' I'm homeless not hopeless
Take me away and avert this war
Adorn me with the sweetness of eternal life
And make the new epoch a peaceful reign.

A REVIEW ON MYSELF

TITLE : A REVIEW ON MYSELF I wasn't able to study law Which allows me not to judge my flaw (s) I accepted it as what life has drawn I'm moving in a pace so as not to step on a claw. One faithful day, I stare at myself Through the mirror, then I asked the mirror What are you capable of doing for yourself? Then I said nothing, maybe it's an error. This is why I'm making a review A guy like me has always crave for a perfect love If not everyone knows, but few Knows it's a great pathology I'm unable to solve. They will say to me, Ibbwrites With the way you write in great plights You ought to have one, if not perfect A lass that is not far off, and will never defect. Thank God for making me who I'm I'm not like a falling water in the dam I'm growing everyday, can't you see my farm? I'm confident always, and feel so calm. I'm always afraid to wo...

MY SOLACE

TITLE : MY SOLACE Happy Birthday to my solace My makeup when I have a dull face My sugar in the time of sour taste Obviously we're from a different caste. It will be so cruel If I can't pen something for you here Because the day we met there We became intimate with no fear. Before today, you're just a friend But now, you're a sister to the end I'll be your lawyer, if you have a case to defend Today is yours, and that's the new trend. With your stature, you're my infant Trust you as my confidant Sometimes I accept to be a fool When you tease me on who's more beautiful. She's my perfect place of comfort Consoling me in the time of distress thought My cute girlfriend, adorable and short Don't mind me, you're still my fort. You've showed me love in many ways Even when I change and sways How can I appreciate those days You cared for me in many ways. My baby girl,...

RAVEN

The obstacles are unfeigned Me thinking of my present life… Now seems like a fictitious poem The scriptures could not avow me But destiny keeps me in the pace I became the sprinter The eclipse of the sun in the day Could not make thou blind Autumns burned me And my premature white hairs Like when deciduous trees lose their leaves I was pounded on the rhythm of… A yamless mortar with a pestle High and low. High and Low Birds flew to the sky I don’t know what they do If they spy or they pry But I know they could help me cry Cry out my raven Oh you lustrous black birds I freed you from genus corvus I’ve rolled a while sheet of English alphabets Fly in a black jet of sparrow feathers To my Papa and Mama Tell them I’ve learnt the alphabets of life Tell them I’ve been able to transcribe… Transcribe their antecedent of unknown words Tell them their echoes has inspired their child Tell them I’m bringing home the baton o...
