ARSENAL FAN


Once beaten,

Twice shy.

The child a snake has ever bitten,

Fears when a worm says, Hi!

Wishing it never passed by,

Lifting his feet this time high.


Once a gunner,

Twice a loser.

Only the fool's ball is trodden twice,

African proverbs prove not otherwise.


Always a fan,

When it's time for support.

But failure to run,

When walking limits your effort,

Only makes your strides pun.


Yet true heroes,

Don't bow to zeroes.

They conquer with rubber bullets,

Even though perceived harmless.

The heart baked in fire,

Tells the mind not to retire.


The one who doesn't give up,

Would always help you get up.

If nothing is achieved at all,

The F.A cup is a boost after all.

With a malleable unbroken heart,

Each season is often a new start.


If need be for anything perpetual

Should you need a partner eternal

In times of climatic hot weather

I suggest nothing better

Than a simple ceiling fan.

If patience is a marriage virtue

Then what I would always pursue

Is to marry an arsenal fan.

December, we can't regret; a sanctuary. But first let's not forget.  The one whom it begot; January. From drought through frost to flood: Such a flying time we've had. Although it hasn't been a boilerplate, I have so much with you to contemplate, Since we all began the year at the same place. Was yesterday not January? That skin drying and lips bursting mammoth. The longest yard of a measured cloth, Hated by salary workers for a month? Then came one so feeble. Short, stout and stable. February came with calm, And soon, we all had bread in palm. He came waiting for Easter, His holy moly sister. The fasting months soon approached: Marching to April as it May. Remember our sacrificial lamb; Jesus, our non-sink sand, The solid ground on whom we stand. Here is the mouth-watering, The mixed-cropping, The earth-soaking. June's journey with Julie to July, On an August occasion we can't deny. That led us to the quadruplet "BER" factory, Where the bittersweet ch

RFFS PRAYER

Anytime I'm called for duty... Wherever deployment takes me, Pervert from my path, any mutiny... But give me the strength to be; The rescuer, the protector and the fire fighter. Whenever I'm gone for stand by... Lord, grant me a listening watch.  All incursions, hazards and risks, May I with my crew identify... Where unavoidable, enable us to mitigate.. Be it in the terminal, tarmac or boarding gate.. Should there ever be an emergency, Wherever fire may rage.. Should there be any shout, No matter the skin or age.. Help me put the fire out, And my neighbor, help me save. And if by your will... Any blood may spill... Leading to any fatality, Protect my wife and kids, And preserve the rest of my crew.

GOOD SLAVERY

So they forced us. No, they persuaded us. Or they educated us? They rather Christened us. Whatever they did to us, Has been as good as, The wisdom their book has. Are they truly the words of God? It mostly feels like yes, Other times a bit more less. Like prophecies in poetic verse, Alphabetically scripted in wisdom, Not known where they come from. I'll read it nevertheless, And you should not do otherwise. At least it will keep you from any mess, And the meditations shall make thee wise. If the revelations make you cheer less, Read the chapters that make you fearless. Just Read The BIBLE
