Nature

The trees danced gracefully to the gentle sway of the wind,
a song only the leaves could hear.

Have you seen the daughters of the moon,
the queens of the cosmos?

Have you noticed how nature chooses her steps?
Gallant and thoughtful.
Feets filled with wisdom .

Spreading royalty in every footprint she leaves behind.

I wish you could see how even gaia hastens to welcome her.
How Ivy broods over every circumference in every drop of her venom.

Orchestration

 You sat amongst your brothers And together, you ate colanut with finely brewed tea The smile on your faces were even But you, I know you. Your heart reeks of spite The type that comes from a reicarnated soul You stare innocently but your eyes speak volumes I see the envy and pride Ripening like pure palm wine, ready to be tapped You hugged your brothers with a snare when no one looked I saw you. You broke the sacred oath your father bestowed I saw you pass a sword through your brother's heart In a foreign land, he bled and died without dignity He was buried in shallow sand like a mad dog Like an outcast who was sent to the evil forest I saw you. In your chamber you gloried Marvelling at your orchestration While you put up a facade of tears amongst brothers You are the thorn underneath flowers I saw you. History has never held a stone up The sun looked at you with fury and disgust Your brother died in a strange land unknown Your corpse will be paraded shamefully in your hometown. C...

Live and let live

1st November 2019 A warm morning at Kurudu. I had a feeling my morning wouldn't be so swirl when I couldn't reach my fellow IT colleague. PS my name is Favour Kosisochukwu Onyejekwe. I recently got accepted at AIT as an Intern. I bet no one would have been more happier than my father! This means he'd stop burning fuel to bring me here only to sit in his car and stare at trees or the ever blue sky. Back to today! I didn't realize Nyanya had more people than the total number of Nigeria as a whole, my goodness! Today I am determined to meet new people. Well, I'm on my way to AYA, in a keke and Mann! this ride has issues. I do hope we get there on time. The traffic in this part of town is something else. I'm still determined to have a great time! I believe that we were never born to face life alone, or else, Adam would have lived without Eve. I realized something priceless today! That people aren't as scary as they seem. I'm building a habit of puttin...

Breakthrough

 From the basket of choices I chose mara in Oblivion I came broken, and without will Even my body gave way in contempt I watched life evolve from a dark place At night I wallowed in pain And in deep ponder,  I questioned my Chi Why have you given me mara? That my limbs refused to aid me My neck wobbled in pain And my head was too heavy You have graced the others With limbs that praise them tirelessly And without pain, they roam in routine While I tarry in the dark I grew on my back  Bracing each passing day horizontally I became too heavy  Pain grew deeper in the process Finally you decide to let me float To reign in light heavenly body Organ by organ, I gave up I left the world with a smile of relief
