LOVE HARDENED
I would o'erstare the sternest eyes that looks
Outbrave the heart most daring on earth
Pluck the young sucking cub from the she-bear
Mock the Lion when he roars for prey
But in as much as I proclaim all these
I can never bite more than I can chew
And if there's ever a god greater than me,
I will run as far as God has any ground.
But even I, a daring desperate determined dare dazzler
Wouldn't wait for doom without my heartrob.

Up above they shine,
Obliterating darkness by their light-
Ye-king and the jewel.
The warrior and his battle- axe;
Each to other a better half-
Two peas in a pod –
Monumental monolith.
Worthy to sing for the bobby-dazzler:
Scapula that breaks the bow-wow’s jaw,
Oak that blunts sawyer’s axe,
Crocodile that changes waves with tail.
I dare you not, I dare you not YK.
The lion that once dared you;
Its flesh you tampered with wine,
Its skin you made casual sandals,
Its fangs now dangling in the celler.
The light is the jewel,
Radiating gorgeously her blaze;
Beam of light,bevy of beauties.
Peju is the light, she is the beacon;
She is the keel that keeps the ship afloat -
The buoyancy that deters every gravity.
Yeah,Ye-king wears a crown;
Pe-jewel is the shine on it.
10/ 1/16.
For my big brother Yekini Odusanya and his darling wife, ´Peju. I am proud of you

You guide me each day
You lift me up when I pray
Through friends and loved ones
My God, You’re really awesome
Closer than kiss is your love

Is buying good wine just a pleasure,
a joy for the whole world to see?
Or is it a personal measure,
to satisfy no one but me,
then kept, as a personal treasure!

The zephyr that I couldn't dismiss
And pouring rain only sounds heard
Then the Spirit gave a good word
Go to sleep_rest, Spirit did undergird
God's presence, closer than a kiss

Meet me where winding rivers run
A rising sun kisses the hills
Where misty mornings are a thrill
And humming birds stop by for fun
Sipping nectar, caught in the sun

On the beach,as sun glazes with pleasure,
Gentle touch on my back makes me feel glee,
Then came darkness with storm of great measure,
Legs move ; water rises; This baffles me ,
as my date becomes the late by a tree.

The sight is simple, a triumphant vision
The clouds remain in dream’s succulent desire
Not a single realm like this burns quite like fire
I hold the heart of dream, to surely admire
Sparks images on the edge of dream’s beacon

A CHILDISH GIGGLE,
WOLF CRY ROUSED.
THE TIRED WOMAN ON BED.
THE GIGGLE CAME AGAIN IN
DIRECTION OF BATHROOM,
WHO KEEPS A ROOM FULL OF TOYS?
DAZZLER, SO THEY CALL LIKE MORNING DEW
THIS SOON MELTS.
DAZZLERS, GLITTERING LIKE GOLD BUT NOT GOLD.
DAZZLER, WHAT DAZZLES
THE INCURABLE PAIN OF UNCERTAIN DAYS.
THE EMPTY PROMISES WITH THE DAZZLING ILLUSION.
THE STRONG WILL TO LIVE,
BY THE GIFT OF LOVE,
IS THE STRENGTH OF ONES?
YES, THE STRENGTH IS LOVE,
LET WADE THIS POOL OF PAIN
TOGETHER IN LOVE IS WHAT DAZZLES.

WHICH PARADISE DO I AGAIN SORT?
WHEN I HAVE THEE CLOSE, NEVER FOUGHT-
WHAT VIRTUES DO I OWE AGAIN MY LOVE,
WHEN THOU DAZZLE WITH THE SUN BEAMS-DANCING DOVE.
IF PARADISE NEEDS VIRTUES, I OWE NONE:
MY LOVE SO INNOCENT,UNBENT BEAMS
AND MY HEART GOES A-MAYING FOR THY DREAMS
FORTHWITH THOU FATTEN IN SMILES SHONE:
OH! PARADISE, THOU NOT NEED COME FOR ME
FOR MINE STANDS, DAZZLER THAN ALL EVER BEHELD-
YOU ARE LATE FOR IN LOVE I'VE BEEN HELD WITH SINEWS
WHEREIN I NOW STAND,INNOCENT WITH ALL THE CLUES.

Driving on blacktop, eyes lighting my way.
A big bright ball follows, alongside the freeway.
He’s bouncing along nonchalantly without a care.
I tried to outrun him but, he is still there!
The huge luminous ball suddenly disappears!
Sinister cumuli sneak up and quickly appear.
Intermittently he peers through their masks.
But, he could not see, giving up alas~
The kidnappers would not set him free.
The dark-hued night was sullen and broody.
Midnight passes, showing a glimmer of promise.
Shinning up above was a grand starry fortress
Slipping out timidly, brighter than ever~
The big bright ball, the nights’ dazzler!
