Of Farm and Life

Okro trees bear Leaves generous in size, Each leaf raises its Stalk to sprout yellow flowers in The hinge Between main stalk And leaf-stalk; The flowers blossom and light The farm in yellow flame Of beauty resplendent; Soon, they fall, revealing Stubs of miniature green.

A fellow dives into an orifice, Passion moves through his veins; It starts, first from the soles Of the feet; then moves as snake’s Venom from ankle-points upwards, it gets To the loin, makes a momentary stop, heaves And sighs, pants and draws more Breath, more blood for sustenance, for The journey so dear, so near, so far... And the loin infects the nerves, Vertebrae rhythm a snake's Slither, and nerves Undulate the roaring Passion to the ticklish brain; Bodies convulse in Flaccid-spasti...

Ills Men of ill minds, Their short thoughts draw A long line of misery After them How much they toil, how Hard they labour How deep their suffering measured On a scale heavier than lead #Poetry #NirclePoetryCommunity #NigerianpoetsStories

Passage Heaven rises from the earth, Distil upwards to dust off early Mist from the face of the sky Dawn sullenly wake On night's Mat and shakes The night off the cocks feathers, The cocks spit gold from the throat and Hang it on the horizon; Ancient trumpeters, Gong-throated messengers Announcing daybreak; The day will break Whether you crow or not. The gold metamorphos...
