Lions In Sheep Skins

Lions in a sheep skin, They come like sheeps, Covered in the light of goodness and hope, As white...

Victims of Our Own Confinement
We decorate and gild our cage Make it nice and decorate The confines of our own entrapment The bars of our own restraint And we focus so much on this That life passes us by And we see nothing but this And do not see we live a lie Imprisoned within our own minds Unable to escape Because we lock our own cage Then we throw...

Prisoners of Our Own Mind
Prisoners of our own mind...! We choose to be a prisoner of our own mind, entrapped for long in that self-induced grind! Attempt to get away from this carnal slot, after many moments, spent well in thought! Revel in the glory of co-existence in peace, and find in it, every individual's place at ease. Looking far deeper in that state - of...

Minds of Our Own
I scribble this thought in an ode, Writers' minds have minds of our own, Our Muse does oft overflow, Unless there's writers' block, you know, Fiction people come to life, We create their joy or strife, Or do they invent their own? Is fiction a world to compose, Or do our minds have minds of their own?...

A World of Our Own
Let us converse through the language of silence Let us interact with our eyes Let us unleash the stream of emotions That in the hearts passionately rise...! Let us exchange ourselves with each other Where my heart becomes yours & yours turns mine Let us live one life together Aloof to the limits of space & time...! Let us make a beautiful world... A...

Nigeria of Our Own
Destined we are curdle together by nature Though at the twin rivers shore Believing same will provoke harmony Bridge on the rivers and wall of our minds Let the power that be Strike balance Sweet home now wilderness exile King, Obis, Emirs, Pastors, Imams and likes stoop to stooge Politicians dictate tune of bomb And never wait for tone When...

In Battles of Our Own
In battles of our own A man will live to advance home Through a variation in a dream In faulty idol flowing stream An ellapsed tongue had tainted my inner vision In battles of our own, Shattered silence through scattered temperaments choose Within it's vested silence in scourge of desire It comes down to the pivotal wire We then choose to socially internalize Yet when...
