ADEYEMI

Deyemi
Offspring of Adimeru
Who took hero with his ethos
When he walked with hefty luggage
And sideways with the Omoge.
You're the one who trailed way for heirloom
But who do not burden for loads
Like your pernicious father Adimeru
Okunrin meta with enthusiasm.
But you burden for several things
Like the back-hills that harbored Asani
But you burden for the smile of Adunni
That you enticed well the cowries.
Are you not an imprint?
The imprint seen on Iragbiji
Where you laid combo with your Raleigh
And took Asake far with her beads.
Adeyemi Osha!
Who dare doubt you Deyemi?
The one explicit this
We stake it for its own peril

ARIYIKE

Arike One day, I will gather our kids and take them far away on a beautiful tale of how love held me sway on it's adventurous sails I will serenade them with stories from yore days about how unwary jokes morphed into flames of amorous desires I know they will laugh hearts out when I tell them about the timeless times I rehearsed fine lines hoping to sweep you off your feet and make brightly-coloured, winged things swirl and tumble in your innards. The very lines that fell in beautiful places in my head always flew away like freed birds when i needed them And then I will look away sheepishly like the fool I was First, it was a tingling then I got a feeling even caught my heart singing And you were the lyrics I dilly dallied but this feelings tarried Till my heartbeats synced in melody with yours When I wasn't looking love fell on my heart And when my heart was in faraway lands love came knocking Olarike You are more than wha

Blame The School System for Those Lies Our Teachers told Us.

BLAME THE SCHOOL SYSTEM FOR THOSE LIES OUR TEACHERS TOLD US Blame the school system for those lies our teachers told us in the classroom. Good grades are not what life needs, in reality,  good grades sometimes don't take you up there but they condition your mind to one man's idea.   Blame the school system for teaching us how to manage other people's thoughts, it never taught us how to think  but how to manage and hold on to the thoughts, principles, formula and theories of some men before us.  why don't you sit down one day and question all these principles and formula and theories you were taught in the school?  The school system told our teachers to tell us that  in order for us to be successful in life, we'll need  good grades that will get us a good and secured job in the nearest future not ideas that will create jobs for us.  Blame the school system for those lies our teachers told in the classroom and leave those lies to discover who you are.  T

BREWED CHEMISTRY

By
From unwary jokes And banters With eyes fixated on another I saw you as just a funny friend Then chemistry set in Unconsciously so, Whirlwinds of passion swept by Here I am with you. I lived in denial She did too No, she is my friend! I whined! No, nothing would brew! She exclaimed! Then came the flame which illuminated our synch Lost my defense Her wall threw open My innate self wanted a friend A gist partner Someone to bring out my talkative self Fantasing playground jumps With our offsprings Whence they see Dad and Mum As troublesome lovers Our affection grew From chatters and laughs Half-speaking, half-singing Then love painted the scene For our fairy tale Here we are, Helplessly in love Like we've got wings to fly Up there to paradise... Babe, its not over With the sweet, There is the bitter With the laugh, There is the cry A new horizon set With storms coming Before the final lap of professing "I do" We ve go
