Nachman was a revered Sage
The greatest of his age
One day he came to his stand
Armless! What had happened?
The next day, no legs either
His students, now in a fever
On the morrow, his body covered with boils
Panic set in – Was that the reward for all of Nachman's toils?
Asked if to teach, he still could
He replied ~ ‘What happens is all for the good’
~ Adapted from part of the tale in the Talmud
of 'Nachum, Ish Gam-zo,' meaning 'Nachum,
the man who says, "This too is for the good."

I am ztuck with a huge zucchini glut
An overwhelming zight
To try and rectify the zituation
I am cooking day and night
Zautéed, grilled with cheeze
A rather deliciouz chocolate cake
Znuck into zalads, ztuffed or fried
Appearing fazter than I can bake
To avoid any kind of wazte
I've tried giving the extraz away
I'm over the mazzive zucchini zupply
zo no more zucchini for me today
..... zero! zilch!

EASTER DAYS
Giving me health bangers,
WA ZO BIA should rest in peace,
Like a corpse in Requiem,
Like a dying man seeing,
Visions of the dead,
Nigeria is a leprosied dead.
Science and symptoms
Becomes soap opera,
Like Johnson's family on TV.

I love a night of storm
When face is slapped
by wind rush drops
and the darkest greys
rush by
like
a z
zo
zoe
zoet
zoetr
zoetro
zoetrop
zoetrope
thats turned too fast
Grumble stumbles over hills afar
Sky filled with radiant
Potters scar
Splatters and growls
hide the nigh time
norms
Tasting rain soaked wind
Body surf the waves
Detaching from the day
Peace within the storm

She was born from the belly of Mother Nature
And kept to become
A mother of many moons and many stars
The whole solar system shanked by her existence
From the Gods Igigi’s Anunnaki’s Titians and so forth
They flashed they cameras from miliuneums of universes
To capture who you see as the weird blossoming sunshine
Dark skinned to absorb the sunlight
While she meditated
She metamorphosed before she could see or even reach a thousand
Days on the astral plain
A broad light in the darkness
She could turn darkness inside out to bring light
I wander if your absences could force the moon to the ocean You are the human zo way your name will never be left unsaid

STYLER
Thee goddess
A soul of weirdness
A dream of unbearable desire
Styler
Tears came out of her eyes like a water fall of joy
It felt like she was in a galaxy of her own
Created by illusion of excitement
She saw the world as nirvana
She blinked and said a thousand words
Without taking a second to think
The last of impulsive veins created a circuit of moments
She surpassed the level of her demi-gods
She had a kundalini thought
Her body was constantly fade energy by the sun
She defined true beauty that man can’t seem to unfold
Styler was an experiment of the homosapien gods
She was the first and only of her kind
Introduced to an atmosphere of curiosity
She was like the ocean of water because she can smoothen rocks
She was a canker
She was zo way
She is Styler

Three Nigerians,
One goes to the west and says “wa”,
And taught some south-Asians to say wah!
Another goes to the north and says “zo”,
And brought along some herds of zo!
The other goes to the east and says “bia”,
And learnt how to sell lots of beer!

It all started with a single tear.
You might have been far from it,
You might have been near,
But tears turn to puddles fast,
Congregrating, to streams, at last,
From a multitude of streams, a river flows''
to a tidal bore
I DO MY DUTY,all zo
