Something about my Father

Bayo
Funny, Godly, Wise, annoying,
Son of Demola, brother of Segun,
Lover of food, women and and my mother,
Who feels proud, untouchable and smart,
Who finds happiness in books, newspapers and nice bosoms,
Who needs peace, money and family,
Who gives alms, a good beating and affection,
Who fears spiders, guns and death,
Who would like to see the world, a change and all the fine women
Who enjoys a good bear, a good book and family’s company,
Who likes to wear khaki shorts, expensive shoes and a baseball hat,
A silent, absent, distant lover,
Ogunsuyi
