Dedicated To Everyone

Our journey did not start with covid, nor shall it end with it - we will overcome!!! 

Intimacy [...Same Currency, Different Rates]

You know I admire your agility

Just like a thirsty fluffy bunny

In search of a midnight memory

Put together to make you happy

I smile every time you moan

It is hard to leave you alone

Amid the delight in your cute eyes

As I lay calm on your warm thighs

Your nails rouse my entire mind

My body finds it easy to unwind

A rare touch that is one of a kind

I'm privileged to have been affined

Our encounter was not an accident

And our story is an alluring content

Of two lovebirds with a single heart

Destined to be forever and not apart

Should any soul search for our history

In all the countless centuries yet to be

They shall all marvel at our untiring ways

That our love lasted past our dying days

Dedicated To:

Everyone With A Purple Heart 💜

Under The Blanket [...An Aura That Entraps]

I have lost my ability to pretend

In the name of potency to depend

On my invisibility to comprehend

A woman so curvaceous to unbend

Her smile soothes my frayed mind

Her hips are lusciously designed

Her innocence leaves me aligned

And her kiss makes me entwined

Her squeeze restores my trembling

I coo like a baby in her cuddling

Her breath refreshes my thinking

And I always long for her blessing

She's got a view that's irresistible

A shape like hers is irreplaceable

Her bosom warms me like a fireball

And her manner of love is above all

I'm yet to be enthralled by another

Even though I have tried to smother

My attempt and desires to slaughter

A piece of the bounties on my altar

The gods themselves are now jealous

That my romance is too contagious

Which is making everybody nervous

Of what they believe is propitious

Dedicated To:

Every Woman Who Has The Charm To Keep A Man Elated

Bags Of Hope [...The Carriage Never Ends]

The market looks promising but a vicious terrain

It harbours the most unloving handlers in the game

They move around but lurk in every portal and page

Waiting for those they see as down-and-outs to use

The employment ladder is such an avalanche of crap

Designed to give false hopes and promote rivalries

A glitch that has made everyone a subset of a system

That keeps workers busy and desperate for survival

They belittle job seekers in service of their own greed

Like cheap little puppets before they even get hired

They bad-mouth new intakes as if they have no worth

And then flutter their egos like a drenched rooster

Most wounds are left in the ashes of constant confusion

Hoping for a timely collision to make peace with the pains

Of a pursuit to tell a better story of misery and triumph

So much so they endure to enjoy the fragments of hope

There is more to illumination than humans can fathom

Many are comfortable in the dark than to be rejected

By the hands that throw a switch and darkness looms

Wondering when their nightmares would come to an end

The shackles are finally off the untamed beasts

The most feared predators are now on the loose

The toothless preys are searching for safe havens

And the hungry hunters are praying for a lucky day

Dedicated To Everyone

The Situations Are Different But The Reason Is The Same.

Distance Beauty (...The Inverse Of Reality)

He laughs and whimpers every time he sees them

Spreads his hands in the open with his eyes closed

Glides and then wobbles like a three-legged animal

A caricature he describes as a gesture of attention

She on the other hand researches all her targets

She hates to sleep with one side of her bed empty

She picks and strikes where her trade is unknown

A feat she describes as a mirror of self-persuasion

Although the desperation in his eyes is barely fragile

His fruitless mission is to own and build them a home

An offer that has been denied a thousand times over

By the same hoochies he meets every now and then

She gives solace to quench the thirst of hungry loins

The very thing she sacredly vowed to keep from lions

Has created an identity conundrum that is acceptable

In her eyes but uncanny to her cronies and outsiders

He's still at large with his eyes on the empty trophies

Begging his incompatible angels for an ocean of time

To reshuffle the same cards that are currently in use

As his days of hunt-and-devour are over and done with

Now that she's taken her battle where she can see it

She gossips those who once sought refuge in her nest

A premeditated tirade to discredit everyone of them

When the secret of her conquests finally comes out

Dedicated To Everyone

We All Have A Beauty That Is Still Blurry To Many 

Our Last Breath (...The Only Debt We Owe Time)

Most of the people still call this planet their home

Some murder innocent souls just to own a piece

Others believe theirs is somewhere in the skies

Alas a handful of people hope of life hereafter

But nobody knows what lies beyond this realm

Our expectation of an eternal journey is no ruse

As many would argue in order to dent the truth

Of what had been and continues to use everyone

In a world where many of us are still deliberating

If there's someplace somewhere only death gives

A new home after earth will always be a hotshot

About the soul's endurance beyond the end of life

And this has become a tasteless thought for many

Who strongly believe that our presence on earth

Was as a result of a time-worn blast presumption

No human can stop or slow the passage of time

Since our existence is remotely measured by it

After all it started the day we were duly conceived

Time had been and still remains the marker of life

That ensures our exits when we run out of breath

The thought of your last breath could be frightening

A moment of a fleeting transition into the unknown

Where many believe reincarnation is their best shot

To a place where they hope to relive their lives again

But who wants to return or knows where we're headed?

In Loving Memory of 

Emuesiri, Eunice, Rosemary, Tunde, Wale and others who PAID their DEBTS too SOON -- and to everyone still breathing: "conserve your breath until the timekeeper beckons"

HATERS (...Your Success Is Their Nightmare)

The haters are always wallowing in their bitterness

As they still run about with your league of enemies

Who in times past wrote you off with their tongues

At the time your clock was way behind schedules

They confuse their self-created fame with relevance

Telling everyone how better they are than you are

Even though their privilege is no match for your wits

But wonder why you keep flourishing in their faces

They besmirch and shrug off your name in the open

Then run to you in secret when they have problems

A ploy to crawl their way back into your blissful life

Just to have a new story to tell when they convene

These human-vultures call you "brothers or sisters"

Titles they're willing to disparage with their words

Whenever your name overshadows theirs in public

As they wrestle and envy your endless successes

They will not give up on your stories anytime soon

That's the only oxygen they need to remain useful

Because they are always searching for new shoes

And they cannot go on barefoot without your name
