Home of Many People

The home of many people 
Filled with happy cripples
With hens above the cocks
Nature always take it cause 

It's indeed a forest
Encompass  with series of plants
The forbidden, the Halal, the unjudgeable  
All so green you could pick grass for Vegetable 

The house of many people
With occupants that always dribble 
Hawking reputation that fluctuates between good and bad 
Just like the actions of a teen lad 

Indeed a market
Comprises of goods of your choice
Your need, Your want , Your Obsession
Your heart justifies your purchase

The home of many people
Where you find Joy leaving with Precious,
Alomo mixed with Punché
Ha! Perfect cliché
Where puffs in atmosphere is an epitome of a cloudy weather

The home of many people 
Where virgins are engaged,
Harlots are classy,
Boys are soldiers and
Arsenal is kept for myopic war

Indeed a barrack
A barrack filled with young minds
Minds with with great dreams 
Dreams to be the best

Home of many people
Where they chant in one tone
"All for One, One for All"
