Stranger In The Night

Half moon lurking in the sky

But still dark,

That I can't see your eyes.

But I heard your voice.

"Good evening" she said

And that got me high

Ebony beauty clad in black

Still can't see your face

But I heard your voice.

I fell totally for you

Still can't see in the dark.

"Can I know her name"

I muttered to myself

Still too dark to see her face

But I'm gone.

I fell in love with a stranger

Without a name

And

without a face.

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.

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... #SOPHOCLES
