Like the proverbial black-and-white TV
You refused to show:
Neatly arranged and structured CV
What else to know:
Imperfection makes me nimble
So obvious is your fake dimples:
Unfathomable the love for you
Still denying it, what else to do.
Starting out as a poem for love:
Turning out a song of sorrow
Because of thee the heart throbs
Deep in pain, now and the morrow:
A word of advice
Thee need to know
You are full of vices
Even if hidden you tried to.

Omolola

Omolola mi Because of you, I can trek from Awe all the way to Sabo From the jungles of Akinmoorin to the slums of Isale-Oyo, Even if you want, I can forsake my beloved fufu for noodles. The love I have for you is more than be careful. Although my eyes are pushing me I will bravely face any member of your clan The seed of love you planted in my heart has turned to a great tree of affection Even the giant Iroko will be dwarfed.

Farmer's love

During tears and wears, I'll be with you No mixed feeling, not unlike morning dew Just know I'm yours. High or low. I'll write you a love song, ink deepest blue Describing you from head to toe My pen running around the pages, covered in hue Any iota of doubt, weed it out All lumps of distrust, lemme get a plough These feelings of love, irrigate it Your trust in me, let's fertilize it I want to harvest you in all your glory Love maximization is my only aim Take me for who I am This is a farmer's love The poem may be horrible I know But that's my best you know I speak in cutlass, hoe and feed This is a farmer's love.... #SOPHOCLES
