The State

THE STATE..
         
As the World so spherical
Full of pleasures and desires  
Rounding  in the minds of its creatures 
Let he that has a tongue, thirst for the Master's wine
And not the drips of human fluid 

For our rivers flows
 With the merriment of itty-bitty transgression 
Acquisitiveness and urge for wealth 
Had poisoned the heart of humans 
Letting them to wonder
 As though the descendants of Judah they be
 As they speak deceitfully with no fear for death

Verily verily, I vaticinate unto you this day
A time shall arrive where; 
Mystery Will turn vanity 
History Will become tragedy 
As the Whole universe shall dance a beat of one drum. 
The World shall be owned, ruled, controlled and be operated 
By one governance, one king, one language and one MASTER. 
     Return from thy evil ways Oh! ye workers of iniquity...
  .....Let he that heard here with ears of WISDOM.....

Night Scar

NIGHT SCAR

Before thee have I bow
With a loyal heart in thy castle of love

Lower thy shoulder that I may lay behold 
Curve in, thy palm around my waist 

Teach thy subject how to plant emotions 
In a desert where genuine vegetated love was lost

I beseech thee oh my goddess
Queen de mon mot (Queen of my world)

I thirst for thy presence day by day
That I may taste weariness no more

Thou art my reflection 
For mirror-ly have I seen my love in thy pupil

Brightly, brightly as the moon increases
Such is thy love above the sky of mine heart 

When I close my eyes in the nights 
All I hear are silent voices from a far 

Did whispers to my sleepy ear
Anonymous! anonymous!! anonymous!!! Queen 
Thou art my muse.

                                              HAPPY NEW YEAR

Keep Pushing

KEEP PUSHING

In trauma of thorns
In turns of time drone
When there seems to be no relief
If you think you're the only unsuccessful person

Dear readers, keep striking
Keep striving harder
When you see someone celebrate success
Ask him what he faced before enthralling to his present level

It has been said "behind every successful person, there are sustained injuries
If you fail today, try harder tomorrow, because joy cometh at last.

A Kiss of Death

A KISS OF DEATH

I sensed isolation 
I felt botherd, broken and ablazed 
I know I'm too far away 

Into the darkened route of blank moon
Into a negative stream of sentiment 
In an off-circle somewhere in forever land

I was; 
Deepened deeply with sharpened tongues of deceit 
Dropping off tears of flaming tongs 
Dawn too caugth me deep in darkness 

And in silence I raised my head up
 and whispered a roar at the stars above 
Why me? 

I raised a bottle of sweet poisoned wine to absorb and to taste a kiss of death 
But yet, a voice so swift and tender
So juicy and slowly 
Thwarted my attention as she said;

"Dear child it's not too late to make a change, life goes on even without your former, wipe your tears and re-join the circle round, remake yourself, turn your local into the modern you want."

No Crushing, Let's Ignite

NO CRUSHING, LET'S IGNITE
                                   (LOVE)

The same way every year 
Shoes strips slightly away
A hole we're meant to cover
The Harmony in my solo  witter

It's bitter, to dance lonely,
It's better to dance lovely
We sing  dulcetly but differently
 without backups
Why should we wait for morn to break,
While we cast blushed glances 
on each others  in every darkened nights?

Hey! This our voices must merge
Our shoes should step together in array
A dance, a hole shouldn't be blank
A sweet love song must usher us with a cup of cold ice-cream in the nights of Valentine somewhere at an outskirt.

We've fallen in the same sea of feelings
So we can still jet-land into another city of undiluted ecstasy of love.
Our love will live even in greyish hair.
'Natural love always avail itself, let's kick it ON'

Success

SUCCESS
                 By Gideon I Tukuna

It draws all attention of the society
It gives courage to barn calamity
It drags Harmony amongst families
Though it is found only in hard work
Cut off all sort of distraction and seek
 
If you want to excel , take a firm step
The ink in your pen works only when
They are ordered to.
Not all brains are the same, oh yes
But you can decide to boost it if you want

Hard work pays so don't be reluctant
Give your best at all time, stand to work
Prepare ahead of time, rest when its time to
Our brains are wider than the oceans
So develop a wise and wider sanity.

Success is not for the rich ones only
Success is knocking always at your door
Success is not not for lazy heads 
Success comes from hard work, not rest
Success is successfully allied with its seekers
              
                              Gideon irmiya
