THE EXCELLENCY OF YOUR BEAUTY

This is as the despair of a man in a pool of fluid entreating for oxygen.
Peace… why struggle, why breathe out when there’s nothing to breathe in?
I will only die but live again when my lover steps in
He went away to bring me my royal cloak, exquisite
Carefully decorated, garnished with many colors, colors of love and life
(I am the) Pride of nature, the sky, the moon and all galaxy

Fly away but return for I will wait
I’ll breathe just when I hear the song of your feet,
And see the glory of your presence
The sweetness of your silence
That refreshing when you’re here
Speak of me among the princes

They’ll sure be bewildered by the excellency of your perfection when they behold me
For I am the glory of (all) your creation
I speak of your love, ability, and beauty
I am an epitome of your proficiency
The expression of your zeal and passion
It is that which runs through my veins

It gives life and courage to this fragile branch
Wrap me like leaves from the cold
Keep me warm in the furnace of your fire like gold
There I’ll find mysteries I was never told
The storm roars but I am bold
I was bought with an everlasting price, now it’s you that I follow
Oh take me away, anywhere, I’ll go

A very sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, cities where corruption reigned supreme, they forsake the word of the wise and were bent on doing evil, but at the later end Queen Marieke, a woman brought back glory to the land. There lived a king named Gbaduze, a long living wealthy king, dark shinning in complexion, a man of his own very word and power embedded due to influence of the Niger-areas in Okere-aje kingdom. However, when death came calling, he died and the king makers ordered that the Queen to ascend the throne of her late husband and invariably preside over the affairs of the community. On ascension, she rigorously studied the existing relationship between the three major tribes in Gini. Q
This Allah must be a vampire! It must have become an ocean of blood and bones; this heaven. They must've turned maggots feeding on flesh; these angels. He must have looked away in shame and despair; this God. For ages they've murdered us in your name.

YOU ARE ENOUGH

Ignorance is protective. Because we know we will all die, Living is now a protest or an acceptance, like a waiting room where the minutes are in years. Like a dressing room for a grand performance. so we are preparing for a career, then a family then for retirement then... The concept of time is the scam of mortality, if we have to spend all our time minding it as we do currently. The norms about how you should live, what you should value and what path to follow were all made by society, if it was an LOC that was chosen by social evolution to make these rules, the members must be all dead now, maybe they would have now recommended changes based on prevailing reality.  The Society has prescribe these laws for it immortality but we won't live forever. We  are just  interruptions in the continuum of time, so ratify these values and choose your personal set.Everything is like everything else just until you decide to value one more.The power of money is in what it can buy and what t
