Japa-tization

Genre: Poesy Title: Japa-tization Author: John King Ayanfe © We increase in population That should be celebration That isn't our situation We breathe in inflation We perpetually sing lamentation We are fed frustration Extended problems without solution What is our resolution In this wahalalized nation This land epitomize oppression And even royal intimidation Castrating great dreamers' concentration Daily they beget corruption Stolen billions in mention Our GDP boasts elevation Our livelihood convey depression Mass deprivation - gross dehumanization My people suffer povertization They use big-big diction To cause us confusion Liar-bilities they are! Nonsensization Our protests became condemnation Lekki? That planned massacarization Our youths plan japa-tization Our ignorance their embezzle-mentation This land needs beautification Behold, for this nation Morrow brings an expectation There shall be realization Portrait your own lamentation Stories for unborn generatio...

I don't need common sense

Genre: Poesy Title: I don't need common sense Author: John King Ayanfe © Nonsense! I don't need common sense A common sense is a common sense Too common a sense for me to call sense In this world where true sense don't make sense Common sense is not a wowing sense Tell me, if all i have is common sense How can i be distinctive with my common sense I'd jubilate in the shadow of nonsense called common sense Though, common sense is an expected sense Folks, what is the essense of common sense Common sense is still not a common sense Rare; but i still don't need common sense I need a sense that educates no sense I need a sense that eradicates the nonsense of common sense I need a sense that shines light upon every sense I need sense! I need pure sense I'm tired of seeing things made by same sense I'm tired of hearing words said by same sense All these are the products of common sense But earth so value products produced by extraordinary sense

Nude attire

Image
Genre: Poesy Title: Nude Attire Author: John King Ayanfe © Behold, attires covering secrets of nudity Attires laying betwixt cheap and expensive costs Thus, nudity is first an attire for all However, man is nude before life and death Certain times be when humans love to forsake their status Nudity becomes the priest of the mind, oh A room to bath - a room for sexual stance Yet man's stance before man is to rule man The rich wear the attire of gathered riches The poor wear the attire of gathered lamentations Fashion?! Fashion is a new trend of insanity Greatly elevated with portraits of nudity Are we not all nude before shadow and birds Before the vultures of hidden places; pathetic sarcasm Aren't we clowns scaring clowns amid clowns Oppressive intimidation - heartless wreckings - lovely hatred Those on expensive attires pew on high tables Those on rags are fed crumbs outside the gate But death feeds on all as supreme parasite Aren't we equal irrespective of stat...

Portrait of love I have painted your photo in my heart, With the most beautiful colours of art, I've decorated you with blood, Inside you'll keep me in a good mood, I have treasured you where you'll never age, We will forever be on the same page, You're the most beautiful girl in the universe, I'll forever preserve your charms on canvas, You're the master piece of my portrait, The brightest star shining at midnight, It gives me pleasure to express our romance, Painting your curves is an unforgettable experience. © Kenneth Munene 2022

One is come

Image
Genre: Poesy Title: One is come Author: John King Ayanfe © The mortally nature of mortals dwells in ego Mortals proudly brag, for that success their lives flow Divinely mortal; He that was born Stationed within fleshes which breathes iniquities for fun This King left His throne to a sin-stinking land Unrepentant! Mortals make iniquities flood their sand This terrestrial habitation need salvation and restitution That all be salvaged from perpetual condemnation Woe to the victory of death One is come Who bears the iniquities of earth Love is born - comfort is given - salvation is here Here is our victory over every fear He who is not mortal became mortal, oh Born in a manger; humility was preached at birth, oh Great He who yet lowered Himself for the goal That indeed He may salvage every lost soul He broke the altar and steel of lamentation Hallelujah! In His name is our celebration He has carved for us everyday to show love And not just in a season to show love

#EWC I WISH YOU NEVER WALKED AWAY. **** Rhyme scheme: ABAB CDCD ABDC **** O’ let me tell you a secret dear, I love you the most in this world In your embrace, I smile and cheer, You are my everything, hey beloved. I may fight with you for no reason, I may get angry for some time, But I yearn for you in every situation, My heart sings your lovable rhyme. Truth is that I wish you always near, In my heart, only your love dwelled, In your love, I dance like wind chime, O’ without you, my life is barren! *** @Dr Sonia 19.11.2022.
