and then it is done, The walk and the run; These two If we had begun This race without one, This too, Nothing would be won. We would set the sun Here too. Enough room to spare Not enough to share. Daylight Comes to meet us here. Noon is our hot air. The night Cuddles […]

Fair,like all ladies fair Was my only wish Model,like the runway trotting model If only I was fair Dark ,I came like the night , dark Skin moulded in soot Velvet though as in sky velvet If only I was fair Knuckles, hard like hard knuckles Having seen softer days Really, too many used creams, […]

Dry sun, Lone path, Dodged wrath. Lost one, Roaming, Gloaming, Words pun. There’s more to know, Reason to may, Little to say, For truth to show. Knew this trick late, Got stuck in fate, I’ll learn to grow. She’s beautiful in sight, Wears too many faces, Leads to many places, Leaves many wrongs in right, […]

Ten very strong men cannot steal my golden pen. Five filthy fishermen fiercely fought for it with strive. Twelve witches burnt the city in search of the safe shelve. Fifty years from now my heart will still be guilty. Nine lives of mine I pray would still be fine. One reason I’m living is to […]

Mala Iwa and Agbutun have decided to finally give a voice to the unfortunate circumstances that befell some parts of Nigeria. One would agree that the reoccurring mishaps have grown from common clashes to some sort of fueled crises with some political undertones. These guys have decided to fuse Music and Spoken word poetry with […]

One day i would make my Mama smile Make her joy full like the River Nile I’ll tell the world a new tale Not missing any trail. One day, he didn’t wake He crossed the lake In his sleep, A deep Sleep. Victor Oyedele

Hallucinations, my dear, Dreams will only bring you fear. Round about the amphi here Is mirage’s perfect year. Same it was of Shakespeare’s Lear Daughters by his atmosphere And the rest veered in slumber soaked in umber’s dreamy smear. Lower the water and sleep, Head above the Nile so deep, Something for the night to […]

Sleep peacefully in the arms of the dark, Close your eyes firmly to avoid the light. When in plenty, you are their Noah’s ark But when in lack, you become a lonely night. Steer off friends without faces with your might. Don’t live carefree like lions in the wild, They will steal your dream while […]

He, Thomas, such huge Himalayan fire; his ee, a spark for you to admire light, bag of lea, something to retire delay. If he’d agree, the buyer would request for Bot or Hardy, fire up the verses; read it without wire, see the text therein. Search for a liar, let him be without truth. Pray […]

You are so rare like a gem, hard to see A dew that fall from heaven. A free gift But just few own you so firmly in heart To them, the crew,that believe you’ll abide By words you’d come through. Thee Shall become so The heart that’s in me grew without you My mountains glee […]
