Desire Obaroyeregbe Agbeyiwa Agidotan Ikoyo Poet Didactic

EXPATIATE

You can't make a living 
If you're not giving 
The services you render 
Tenders you money 
You won't make a dime
If you're idle all the time.

To be somebody 
You must do something 
To be nobody 
Just do nothing 
You can't make sweetener 
With lime or bitter leaf.

Knowledge is infinite 
But limited to those 
That does not seek it
You can't picture 
What you don't face
You can't be a public figure 
Without impact.

I endow book smart 
And street wise
For life is two sides 
Up and down, good and bad
Day and night, sun and Moon 
Mother and father, son and daughter 
Life can give you anything, when it's it time.
