Edward Ibeh Poet Verse

The Catalyst

Just look at him now! 
      Look how far he's come
       From the bottom rung
      Of the corporate ladder
      To the very top, at last!
       The world, at his feet
   He owes a debt of gratitude
       To his supportive wife
      She was his cheerleader
     Unwaveringly behind him 
     All the way. The catalyst 
  That lit a fire under his belly
      A fire that used to be...
           Only a smoke
