Cities


Title: Cities
Author: John King Ayanfe ©

There is a city; city christened 'Earth'
There is a city beneath the earth
There is a city in the waters of earth
There is a city in the air of the earth

Cities within the walls of a city
Forces, elements and doings beget their kinds
Mysterious in their stance; prolific discharges
Oh, the physical is merely bare before spirituality

Every city suffers chaos, pains and inflation
Earth is calm yet rages with countless troubles
Man is the creator of his own storms
The cities have been portrayed with perpetual worries

Man is borne of flesh and blood
To flesh and blood he lives and dies
Man spends his ephemeral life dining with iniquities
Alas, the body sow for the soul to reap

There are yet cities after 'souls' reaper' comes
One laid with comfort - 'nother carved of furnance
Our cities on earth shall prepare man for either
Thus, the benefits of mortal cities elevates either

Even if I bow

Title: Even if I bow Author: John King Ayanfe © Even if I Bow. Perhaps, later nor Now. As these tribulations rages; allying Trepidations. They're hymns of my persecutions For selfsame Job's (modern) Mysteries. Found myself I in my Days. Hope broken with psychological Devastation. I've been a wanderer treading in illusion Even if I'd bowed, Mr. Hardscrabble. Childhood negligence, struggles, survival, Lover's betrayals. Sunk spirituality - sorrowful existence Bitter life. Oh! Pains tick in the clock And, O' if I bow Bleeding. Let faith and spunk dance for Joy. Victory is mine! I fight to conquer At last. This warrior atop all brokenness bravely stand Happily I shall Bow. In thanksgiving, to paint my Mysteries. My weary soul shall dance in the singing of Victory. Bowing to life in life after death

Storms within my soul

Image
Genre: Poetry Title: Storms Within My Spirit Author: John King Ayanfe © In today, i go back to yesterdays That yesterdays whence my lips kiss mics Truly, my fingers cause drums rumblings A charger to the lips which pray A voice which pierce the hearts for repentance One occupied with the activities in heaven Now a prodigal son without repentance Far from the gathering wherein salvation dances Dancing to the beats of life's challenges After chief hosts of altars spelt wrongly Converting celestial activities to financial enterprises Thwarting dreamers' dreams, salvation and elevation Preachers of salvation, yet givers of shackles Preachers of salvation, they yet need salvation Lovers of money and women; demonic preachers They murdered my spunk - they buried my drive Our leader has solo in worship and prayers Son of Spirit still connected; aroused by THE WORD For me is a battle of spirit and flesh Oh wretched flesh with a willing spirit Who wil fathom the storms within

My country

Genre: Poetry Title: My Country Author: John King Ayanfe © My country, a beloved to my soul An abode of my birth and my unborn death I have heard of your fertile soil Oh, your abundance be yet a host to dearth Many tribes like branches on the giant sequoia tree You're a giant! Taller than Kilimanjaro - yeah, Mount Everest Stronger than trojan's horses - swifter than bald eagles Lo, upon your shoulders echoes thunderous lamentations On a sick bed you lay weak and dying Whilst penury, hardscrabble, corruption and tears feast on you Our doctors have failed to ad-misnister true elixir Just golden promises with harsh reality This unfair troubles make our breath heavier than Olumo rock A new day is borne unto this broken land Her illness shall be washed away Song we shall sing - Dance we shall - playing our gangan Around the trees and atop the mountains shall we celebrate Our troubles shall solely be written in history Arise o, compatriot. Come now to beautify this land B
