Hello
Makinde Adebayo Adeniyi

The Moon 
Whispered to me
The darkness 
Is filled 
With fortunes 
At dawn
The sun peeps
To say

Revealing players under righteous sun
No hostages to fortunes, emotional bonds
The self awakens, new dawn begun...

Poor people have so few worries
   And they're never in much of a hurry
As we, on guard day and night against theft
   Else our vast fortunes ~ bereft...

How the heck can we trust these jokers.
When given our fortunes they poke us,
with the promise to invest,
and return high interest.
So why are investors called brokers?...

A poem by sanjay amaan 

That he died 
what fortunes he had had 
That he died 
What fortunes he had had 
A smile And bread in his hand 
That he never had .

They call me a furtive old fella
And scoff at the fortunes I tella,

     a hoax you would call it
     as you look for your wallet,

And I vanish before you can yella!...

Bill visits psychics to predict future fame
for his fortunes and even a lottery claim.
But each psychic masks
this question Bill asks …
“how come you must ask me what’s my name?”...

I rejoice with your great wealth,
I smile to your good fortunes,
I add colors to your good health,
I make you dance to good tunes,
I am not present at your death....

“In God We Trust”
the dollar we must

Two-headed coin,
minted unjust

“Fides in Deum,”
our fortunes to blame

The past purloined
—the future inflamed

Travel …
strange bedfellows
made of us all
Crossing
the threshold
hesitancy stalls
Calling us
forward
the moment attacked
Hiding
our fortunes
—the future on track

To write
like me
You must 
think like me
And see
like me
And feel
like me

To write
like me
You must 
ask not tell
For words
rung clearly
By fortunes
— bell

Into the world, pure ~*~
we protect and shelter, whilst
life's avenues open ~~~
sadly, the fortunes of war
displays our lost, stains of life ~*~

Nebulous angels vacant worth
Foresee no fortunes adulate
Dawn's desecrated, faithless birth
Supine mother to stillborn fate

Once there was a crystal globe
Disguised as a twirling strobe
Lucky for me, I could clearly see.
My future was not there, but in me.

October 1939
wallstreet crash
men jumped out of windows
losing their fortunes in one afternoon
families lost their homes
working men became tramps, looking for work
sad time not only for the country, but for the world...

Success paddles forth on a teak-crafted boat,
God’s blessings now shine in a glow to adore.
Your foes only watch as your fortunes take note,
Your blessings now match every sand by the shore.
God made you a beacon of love evermore....

Yearning to shave time,
amass his fortunes,
he set his sights on
uncharted waters
and built a castle
in the sand instead.
