I envision triumph, a future aglow
A difference maker in academia's hallowed halls I'll grow
My primary years, a labyrinth of sound
English spoken, a nightmare that wrapped me around
My father's decree, a mandate to conform
English only, a language to adorn
But I was disadvantaged, a sibling apart
Their English-speaking school, a world that left me to depart
Then came Victory Academy, Isua Akoko's shining light
Where literacy and spoken English ignited my sight
I rose through the ranks, Language Prefect, a title I bore
Under Hon. Alabi and Mr. Oladokun's guidance, I explored
Today, I stand tall, a specialist in Education's noble quest
Literature in English and the language itself, I've mastered and possessed
My journey, a testament to perseverance and might
A triumphant tale of overcoming, shining with delight.
Ah, twas only by a fluke conversation,
whence a speech pathologist
informed my parents about
the Lancaster Cleft Palate clinic,
where oral an examination
revealed minor birth defect
identified as a submucous cleft palate,
which explained the severe pinched twang
somewhat mitigated by wearing
a removable prosthetic
fashioned by Prosthodontist
Dr. Mohammad Mazaheri MSC, DDS
fastened with clasps to upper teeth
whereby a makeshift miniature
plastic protuberance closed the gap
so air would be prevented
passing thru my button nose
and thus gentle and soft as a shutterfly
shunted air out thee oral opening
though congenital defect disallowed
returning merchandise back to sender
nor could blame be affixed
at either father nor mother
who both harbored the genetic mutation
now such admissions
re: aforementioned impediment allows,
enables and provides boasting rights
if in a mood to temper
any curiosity or satisfying a rumor
whispered down the alley,
whence I said “ah”
left nagging nincompoops
as if pie hole filled with a gobstopper.
There's only 17 words in the english language tendered
Most have 153 meanings, each day of those entered
Seems some disagree
But got proof I decree
How many meanings for the simple word “present”

Open as wide as the Canyon
but still they can't see
Every day they witness Evil
but still they can't see
Heart ache and pain in full view
but still they can't see
Blessed with perfect eyesight
so how is it these eyes can not see

O! English Language
How many forms you transformed
How many tongues you twisted
How many people are terrified
Of your complexity
How many people enjoyed
Of your proximity
Began your career as local
Spread out across global
You are crown to the Speakers
Unknown to the fearers
You are treated as Royal
to be loyal
Your dominance existed for a long time
Who dared to beat your expansion
You entered our land long ago
Became part & parcel with ego
Gave us life
to teach you & make others triumph
Thank you !
Ever grateful to you.

Yet when I write the same phrase people say what’s wrong with me

Do they live in a house with a scavenger mouse or something much bigger
Is there several (hice) with several scavenger mice
