THE CAR AFFAIR



Love is no more fair

As dating turns a funfair

Life is not that simple 

Especially in the days of Uber and  bolt

Where taxis are still ample

Speeding passengers like Usain Bolt


Who says money can't buy love

Go ask Christiana Love

If she preferred Benz to Picanto

That's how far Gloria can go


Woe unto ye inhabitants of Africa

For I have released the love for car

Into ladies and gents 

Living in mansions and tents


It's not her fault

If on you rains her assault

She'll want to join the fraud cruises

Until she finally bruises


Blame not your boyfriend

Who's at the receiving end

With little time, little money

Roaming always just to find honey


After all, we both need to hold the wheel

Step the pedal and feel the breeze

We need it more than you

Be a lil more patient till time is due.


If you still walk in the 21st century

With the "one day, one day it's gonna bee" lyrics

Then expect not the queen slayers

To wait till you have answered prayers

DREAMSCAPE

An experience of a walking life; Or thoughts of the day in motion at night, Flowing peacefully in spirit like a kite. Awaiting an Estimated Time of Arrival, In your heart’s own built terminal. You woke up from the thunderous snore, Just to realize you were in a slumber. But you vividly remember; The realities you did encounter, And how beautiful it was that you saw. So you shared your story in the morning, While you were still yawning. Yes you shared; With people of like-mindedness. And boom! you are a hit; A one time wander, Now a lifetime wonder, With whom everyone wants to sit, But your dreams, don’t let them plunder. You are now a champion, So go ahead my companion. Go ahead with that plan; Store as many as you can, If it can’t be frozen, just get it canned.

MY FIRST EID al-FITR

Being born in a Medina community,  Gave me the zeal to help humanity, Not for their lack of man's basic need, But for the luck that I now have people to feed. Seldom did I take part in Islamic activities, For the idea of the zongo hostilities. Yet, As long as I grew with their husbands, I realized not all sad news is created by their hands. It's only a notion that each child is assumed to have played in the sands. With my encounter with the second Sheikh of the land, Islam in focus was what thought me the goodness in Islam's demand. The rhetoric is only an iota of truth in each religion, That there is a "Mensah" in each tradition. I played with Abdul after my Sunday school, And ate with Aisha each break at school. Sometimes Sheikh himself took us out to the pool, Don't fight was his only golden rule. Amelia would bring my mum a basket of food, And I cannot forget the symbolic aroma that flies in all their meals. Eve...

The EID of men

I was born in a Madina community,  Where needs were not priority but just wants, Yet those who had to help said they can’t. And that gave me the zeal to help humanity, Not for their lack of man's basic need, But for the luck that I now have people to feed. Seldom did I take part in Islamic activities, For the idea of the zongo hostilities. Yet, As long as I grew with their husbands, I realized not all sad news is created by their hands.
