If Angels Went Errands

Had i known; angels
went on errands;
Indolent my flesh 
must
grow,
Surf in wealth of no
labour to show
Stuck to my solfa with
popcorn bowl,
Watch my polo
squeezed to no 
damp,
My belle filled with 
not
hassle.
I choose to live like
Pharaoh and his 
knights.
My poemdom on one
dais, much better;
A pinacle; spill my ink
for my only labour.
My imagination; hope
not as lucifers'
Gehenna! No o!
Even as i spill my
restless ink
I hear not all errand
they honour.
O! How imaginations
please my unlanguid
mind.

Beware

Thinking of the mess that "mess"
Mess with unmessed messers;
My soul breed lividity.
Skirts no longer have its hold
As trousers lust after them like desperate achievers.

Through the streets of Lagos,
They hawk their messy chips
Leaving the road to a puzzle:
"who is pedestrian"?
Lord please forgive them for
They know what they do.

Thinking of what sin has done
To men of sin that has refused
To leave the pin of sin
And cleave to the fountain of living;
My kidneys pant for pity:
For hell is but a den
And well of helly imps in helly grins
Furry hopes and sights and pot belly demons.

I be not a preacher
But I preach to you today:
Beware of the kingdom of mess
And still I pray Lord please forgive them
For they know what they do.

Just a Step

Take a step as strong as can dig the sands of time.
Take a step as deep as sand storm can't cover. 
Take a step as confident as can stand a horricane.
Take a step as long as can merge a world record.
Take a step as heavy as elephants would run for.
Take a step as dashing as not to waste a single tick.
Take a step as livid as would chase away hungry lions.
Take a step as humble as to remember who stands by you (Jesus).
Take a step as passionate as to take people along with you.
Take these steps as much as possible as 
Would lead you to your destination(Heaven) and then u can say
"I've fought the good fight of faith and I've won the race, what remains is my crown".
