ORACLE OF NATURE
Lie is been feed like food
Truth finds its way beneath the mattress
Knowledge of thought has taught me some thoughts
Where the gate of trust has gone beyond extinction
Where is the dog?
Sent by a clone of truthful liars
Answering the name like Lie Mohammad
Preaching earthly food for heavenly thoughts
Teni told me he had bountiful of flowers
But some flowers are not filamentous and ornamental
Some are full of thorns
While others have already withered its glory
Clones of crowns are in Joseph’s abode
Accepting their name like Gov. Ambode
Trying to code the old layer before the broiler
But I have already boiled the broiler
Who is truthful?
Tortoise is the most truthful animal on earth
Who left its house to lie on thorns like flier who try to fly?
Feel free to wrap your woman like woman wrapper with a trustful wrapper
Oracle of death has been murdered
And buried in a shallow ground like a buried serpent head
For the truth of lies is beyond the expectation
Of the coronation

While talking of verbs,
you become a noun, rigid name.
Exploding like a bromine mix.
A stinking salt.
A fish like whiff. Spirulina.
Entangles you in
filamentous grip. The
lady becomes a giant fish.
The fun of throwing a
curse. You want to change the
nomenclature. Of the sea.
It is now an extinct brine.
You are sinking amids?
shells. Hollow inside. No
thoughts. No movement.
A green vision only, blinking at night.

"I stood still and was a tree amid the wood,
Knowing the truth of things unseen before;"
. . .
"Nathless I have been a tree amid the wood
And many a new thing understood
That was rank folly to my head before."
--- from The Tree, by Ezra Pound

Slender, singular, filamentous fir,
Yellowing larch -- these trees
Do not speak but seem to sleep,
Sheltering skinny sheep
Handily herded -- full-fleeced
In lanolin-laden wool.
Sheep do not sleep much.
They speak their protest --
(Such ineffective baas) --
To cloning and to closeness.
All, doubles of the ovine others,
Crowded among brothers,
Cowering under silent wood:
Dissimilar dark fir;
Lone, yellowing
Larch.
