my love life is like a plot in a grand novel,
where dawn stands tall,
yet dusk must kneel
and grovel.
each chapter of it dims as twilight nears,
unleashing darkness that feeds on
the carcass of
waning years.
yet expectation remains high...
waiting for another page
to turn and turn
until old age.
meanwhile, the plot keeps thickening...
bringing to life
more of the fears
in a world full of strife.
yet love keeps its shine in the distance,
like a mirage that gleams in space,
offering false satiation,
only to fade into non-existence.
but the story will never end...
until the Author of all things
chooses to write an epilogue
of how much of his love we all depend.

In the depths of my heart, a spark does reside,
A magical flame, filling me with joy inside.
I'm a creative person, full of wonder and delight,
Imagination takes flight, like a kite in the sky so bright.
With colors and shapes, I paint stories so grand,
Using my brushes and crayons, held tight in my hand.
I dance with my dreams, where anything can be,
A princess, a pirate, or even a buzzing bee.
In the world of make-believe, my spirit finds its home,
Where castles are built from pillows, and adventures freely roam.
I'm a creative soul, embracing the magic in every way,
For with my imagination, I create a brighter day.

School is like a prison
Deterring thee in a sacred cage,
And unleashing with two hidden...
Pin, one before quarter after, after each mate
And then you feel so jade.
School is like a lot
Leaving six pen on your desk with sense
One turn at a spot
Sight a handling of the six pen all in mess
And then you feel so dense
Many a life in school:at point zero, you are an hero
But hope narrowly to a shallow,
And leap close to a serpent arrow,
Never be shuddered or sorrow,
Draw close to thy holy shadow.

Anybody who believes in misleading fortune-telling...
that his destiny cannnot be easily diverted or altered,
is following the formidable foe to a distructive end
the assumption that doomsday is quickly coming!
I am going to tell you how to age so gracefully,
but my opinion costs nothing: braze yourself
and start a lifetime exciting ride to increase credibility:
no worries on the mind with the cheerfulness of an elf!
Have you known depressed people who complain
about everything that's gone wrong in their lives
and to stay pain-free they shove tons of white pills
down their throats to stop what seems a delusion?
Breaking free is undoing thoughts that hinder happiness
from becoming a sort of inspiration where your bold ego rises
the spirit and mind, allowing doubts to vanish instantly;
no new revelation is more worthy beholding with excited eyes!
What's the secret of those people who are happy and free of troubles?
It's their commitment to unleash the joy of discovery...
to have bigger dreams with the pretty colors of rainbows,
and whenever they lead them, they can separate fantasy from reality!

I hope to unleash the anger within my heart
to the attitude of the police,though I`m slow to react,
Killing of innocent citizens is a wicked act,
and I`m tired of hearing this news where I sat,
This has expanded my bowel to make it fat,
Years before,I`d applauded their deeds with bowed hat,
but now,they pounce on the masses like a wild cat,
Brutality and extortion are built as a mini-flat,
Government defense and uncaring gesture makes them apart,
which continues to spread to all strata in a vat,
Ready to unleash my anger and spread it like a mat,
I will not rest,but fight until the leaders issue a fiat.

Timidity ran all over me,
I got frightened for the day
Corpers march out of the camp
Bidding service to their homeland bye
A compulsory year for “ajuwaya”.
Of waste to many
Of hilarious time out to some
Of acculturation to others
Of enslavement in a glorified den.
With the inscription NYSC on white top
Brownish khaki below
Para-force orange boot to march
Ajuwaya’s hope dashed after 365 days
Dream killed for future seeds
Aspirations in korper’s khaki cut off
As they are unleashed to joblessness
Scattered into hopelessness of labour market
Here comes the “korpersion”
In search of future in confusion
Outside the very den after gyration
In a kingdom with no future.

Ajuwaya- a term used for fresh undergraduate who are
Undergoing one year compulsory service to their father land.
Still on my way, but back to IPC from Apagbon in Lagos on
The behest of IPC Chairman, Lanre Arogundade.
Significantly, it was the pass out day for corpers as they don
the streets in their Khakis.
