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.

HER MAJESTY

By Ola Vincent Omotade There was a village named Gini, a town blessed with mineral resources and oil. For a long-time the town had been under the pressure and control of Gbaduze a strong courageous king that ruled with excess superiority and power. 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
