Glorification

If bristles are mouth
I shall use them to praise
And my hairs are mouth
I shall use them to praise
For He's leading my way upon the choice I made
For roads are many and manta devours my head
In an abyssal ocean; brain drenched of ideation,
Still I swam a fish hope for season
To change to dry, to dry my brain
Oh! Poor soul in complication
As a beetle lifting a huge rock
With its sucking jaw or beak
When difficulty comes one's means
One might turn into a goose
Little fishes of land giggled and
Stabbed me with outwards.
Um! To God be the glory
The choice I made for poetry
Gave me true dimple grin
As two lovers face each with grin
Till my night was brightened
By bright light shines as gold
Orginated from the moon.

You seem to sail upon the archipelago of poetry trying to find the most appropriate shore for a safe anchoring. Adventurous and challenging writing, my friend, A.M.!

Your style is avant garde to me Afolabi, it's use of thought forms is awesome, new ways of expression...ingenius! In poetry we find our origin, in love we know our magic. The way that you illustrate your relationship with God, Poetry, and the one you love is very powerful to me. J.A.B. A FAV!
