Dictator

             To the speeding lecturer
Like the cheetah in the jungle
your nature is running
Albeit with your mouth
Perhaps, hot yam is pressed against your tongue
speeding across the pages of the book
my pen is restless
numb with pain of trying to keep up
with the parade of your word

'come again' sir?' "hmm" "na wa o"
echoes across the hall
But like the black faced old bat
you are deaf to the sound



Old fashioned
Sticking to old notes
the same used by my grannies in college
now i know why you are a profesor
you taught them all
with the same old note
Forever speeding, never explaining...

Paraprosexia Like a thorn in the side Always present Yippee, what can I do Way too much Intoxicated by you Till dusk or dawn Here with me My constant distraction Enigma, the one I love

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.
Full of hope joy and expectations Celebrating the arrival of my messiah It is you I have been waiting for Grinding to a halt feelings of despair Until I heard the story That saddens me Makes me feel minute Inconsequential Unwanted I am Just a little boy, immature Then I buckle my belt Through thick and thin Rain and snow, my aim is you I'll fight for my glory. #SOPHOCLES #Ayoife
