Poem
I have been made mad before With my clothes on my hands Shabbily treated by children in the street. My hair shaggy and rough. YOu could see me going through the hoote-nanny Smiling to every one that comes on my way in a mischievous manner. Then they sang the lost song of missing instrument and Bongo And i dance stupidly in an open field crowded with fools. They watched my buttock going higgledy-piggledy with no questions I flagged off my clothes and let them see my bare chest Swirling and twisting its Skin. I have tolled every night and day upon the ugly mountains With my back welcoming the dust of the ground in agony. I have been pushed to the lunatic asylum because they thought I was mad but your love made me drunk and insane. Lyrically, my songs boomed and welcomed thousand children Home to celebrate your bravery yet you seems not to admit my effort as i sustain lumbago which made me lumbering. I have embarked an arduous journey on the south west to obtain the Roses and egg of life made for you in the land of the spirit Because the priest confirmed you to be Ogbanje. I have worked in the zoo, worked in the oceans, fought the masked spirit and won for your sake. Worked in the farm land where the monkeys mocked me With their ugly black teeth abusing my personality. I made the ridges with your names written boldly on it To remind the birds and wild creature that it is Untreadable land for a pretty damsel. I have pronounce your names millions time with the parrots Taught the toddler how top read your names on books. I have become a hooligan and hoon all because of your love. I have worked in the vineyard of the king as his servant, Many maiden clutched to me and laid down their humble Lives for my soul rescue but i denied them all of love. Millions tears have i drooped for your sake, Rebel against my flesh and blood all because i love you. I am bound to your body by ardour love, Love me so that every thing would be hunky dory.
