Tomiwa Ajiboye Poem
Slowly and silently she moves
Waiting for the right moment before she swoops
Her fangs built to shorten the lives of fools
Who in a moment their lives they lose
The glance from her will make you go pale
For few are alive to tell the tale
Just a swipe and to eternity will your soul sail
Her strikes has never and will never fail
The naive prey unsuspecting is feasting
Unaware that not far from him death lurks...nesting
The prey breathes its last never suspecting
Its carcass in a barren land...forever resting
Who are these helpless preys?...
Who suffering fill all their days
Who are those who lose their lives in these God forsaken place?
Who are those who find themselves caught up in life's maze?
They are the poverty stricken serfs!
Who die daily in mass
While the rich populate like stubborn grass
For them...Hope is far away as the stars!
But we must breathe in the air of freedom even if it's our last
We must build a utopia for our generation very fast
We must raise the flag of freedom on the ship's mast
And build a future that would forever last!!!

Tomiwa Ajiboye Poem
My world
The sky darker than red
Pouring out tears of blood
Everywhere- flames and mud
Even the air is filled with discord
Welcome to my world
Robbers pretending as merciful lords
Stealing the people’s collective fund
Hmm- Moses without a rod
Leading the people to the land of discord
Welcome to my world
Thieves in disguise as shepherds
With fangs as sharp as the leopards
Innocent blood used to fertilize their orchards
Welcome to my world
Dark lords pretending as the light
With no single deed in sight
They kill with utmost delight
While increasing the people’s plight
Snakes in disguise as a fish
Ready to bite at wish
The people’s flesh they are ready to ravish
And hell unwilling to unleash
My world blessed with riches foretold
Vast in precious stones purer than gold
A view so beautiful, surely a sight to behold
How disaster struck, is story never to be retold
Make me the commander of the death squad
Make me the bearer of the cavalry sword
Make me the knife that draws blood
Severing all corruption’s chord
Because it’s only then, I can have a perfect world!!!
