AS WE GATHER TO PREPARE FOR THE SUN'S BIRTHDAY


As we gather to prepare for the Sun's birthday,
and readings from its personal memoir.
I must sent this memo to it's mother, life's mentor.
Earth's mayor, Junior and his father the eternal vicar.
Life's alumnus, one out of one.

As we prepare to shock surprise and drown the ocean,
we have written the weather for the rehearsals at Jupiter.
Miracles will be wearing white, since they will be ushers,
and they have all been informed.
The posters are already on display on ocean's streets.
soon mars will follow.
For we have planned this as a surprise,even to us the planners.
And because up there accidents do not happen,
we only need faith and not funders.

As we gather to prepare for the Sun's birthday,
we write to you  the lone scientist, the compass of change,
the sole signatory of earth's warranty and the hedge fund for fruit flies.
The inspector of the mines: earth, Mars and others.
We have spoken to words and they said they have heard.
Green grasses have renewed their green and so have  the rest.
For those who came here before time came,
have said the sun was here before them.
And memory need this memoirs to complete its harem.
So we invite you Death's doctor, director of the undersea choir.
To the charity walk holding in Venus,
as we would observe a minute silence for the earth,
and all other things blinking red.
And then the songs of corals  with the Pacific orchestra,
as they hope to impress with their visual tenor.

As we gather to prepare for the Sun's birthday.
we cannot start without the beginning.
So we visited the celestial gallery of art,
but logic is strangely mute.
So how can we trust other mental routes?
And although we have summoned eternity,
none can tell how long it will take to get here.
And because we are determined to shock surprise,
 we cannot just ask any near,
except  of course, the fourth man in that fire.

FACULTY OF THE MIND

By Jeremiah JOSHUA Deep darkness invades the mind, as thoughts of evil walks its hall way, giving impulses of feelings, lustful ones claiming to give peace. Strong and strange desires craving for what looks like the unknown. giving suggestions to the faculty on how to deplete and decrease our spiritual GP of righteousness. Trying to do good was the intent, but seeing a rival in our senses. haven't clearly seen and read this  lines from the book that gives wisdom that this courses are not to be taken in this great citadel, the MIND. But consciously and unconsciously we see them sneaking and stripping into our classroom to be masticated and acted upon. Slowly breaking down our tower piece by piece and leaving the faculty in ruins and not in peace . The infallible and irrefutable words we have once read from the book of wisdom is all we have left to stand against and battle this evil encroaching the terrains of our faculty. To yield to the great pers...

BED AS A SLAUGHTER SLAB.

Another sinister stab... a bed as a slaughter slab. A branch broken down; death with a fierce frown. Another drunk knife. An assailant of a wife. Neglected role of a mother. Now a brutal butcher. Body riddled by holes... sadness slays our souls. Another gruesome death; candles about to melt. Fear in the camp of men... a callous campaign by women. How many more men will fall? Devilish handwriting on the wall. No more dreams in our sleeps. Our slumbers are no longer deep. A death devoid of bliss; we still pray you rest in peace. Lanre badmus November 2017

FADING SAPPHIRES

By Ola Vincent Omotade She shouted at me  '' just walk away '' You made my past miserable, you're meant to be forgotten. I tried  to walk gently out of her sight. she then 'whispers'  I hate you ,cheater, devil  she said. Then i knelt down and from my sour mouth,I said "Could me and you with fates conspire,to break this sorry scheme of a thing entire. Cos my glances nowadays are now in glimpse. She looked  at me and replied i give you just five minutes. Then i knew i had to do more of poetry and not planning. So i started this way Clouds and Darkness were round about me. Just like the first time i saw your face. And After your lightning enlightened my world, there was a great race in my heart. The way my heart beats radically still wont Change. so I wept bitterly upon the mountains and upon the Hills and it seems someone is taking me away.. Waters cannot quench our love neither can flood drown it....wait Just mention, e...
