OH!! NIGERIA: An INVOCATION to THE GOD of OUR FATHERS

  OH!! NIGERIA: An INVOCATION to THE GOD of OUR FATHERS_ Chukwu Okike Abiama- the greatest deity of all time Your unquestionable existence we extol Our fathers, your faithful worshippers Must lie uneasy in their graves What dost thou behold  Through the atmospheric strata A people in darkness thicker than the bulrushes of _Igodo_ lake  Ocean mix of blood and tears Hail and wails of the destitute For greedy sons of Belial  Serving their bellies and not us Constrain our destiny This is the cause of your wrath Oh! hearken to our pleas born by the wind  Tribal bigotry plagues us  Like a rotten ulcer on the dorsum of a diabetic's foot  Our stench exposes us to carnivores Please, come to our rescue The die is now cast Strengthen us to reclaim our wastelands To rediscover the unity in WaZoBia May our unborn offspring not remember us for shame *Ise!!!!!

WASTED

Sing a song to my scars, Please tell the drummer to strike the spot of my pain. Replay the scenes of my failures,  Sing the dirge and write the epitaph, I really can't live. Don't hide the truth, My condemnation yet in my mother's womb,  My self atonement impossible,  My freedom tied to a wood.  Sentenced and serving, there is no end in sight. Imprisoned yet self rigtheous,  Self justification, bland soliloquy,  Making an empty case to the universe, Living in my delusion, Courting with death. Truth knocks Tap, tap, tap,  Understanding dawns like the day,  Reality tries to speak, then stammmers, Pause...  Then it blunts, Who can deliver me from this body of death?

MY SLOGAN

  I've sharpened my pen  But its difficult to pen down a word  Excess are the words in my head right now  But which should head the others? Hagia Sophia friend like no other is the slogan  Who's ever caring?...HSFLNO  Who's got that amazing head?.... HSFLNO  Who never gives up on Crystal?.... HSFLNO  I could go on saying how amazing you are  But words are a scam in a certain hour I was locked up in my self-created prison  Fences high with reason  All to make sure my prison  And there you were Drawing your rescue map, from afar Like a determined warrior, you broke in  "How?" will forever be my question  You brought me out a step at a time  How did you know withdrawal could set in? I'm not ignorant you sustained bruises Or even worse One thing pleases  That time is a balm It will heal even the worst bruise Coincidence doesn't exist in our dictionary Luck is not a word in our world  Divine providence is the word  Hope you agree with my vocabulary You are my f

TROUBLED SOUL

Alarm rings Sudden wake  Flash of thoughts  Racing heart  Wide opened eyes  Shaky hands, sweaty too Which is the problem?  The thought or its effects  I need to clear my head. What does the morrow hold?  I would have known  If above this realm I was I know of someone above  Above this realm; thus limitless  Maybe I should reach out I beseech thee High one You knew me before became, this I was told  You must know the morrow too  Teach me to trust Calmness No more thoughts  Heart at rest Day starts finally Sapphire 16-02-2020

DIVINE WORDS

The words of this man  A man soaked in grace  A man with so much love For God and fellow man The words of this man Grace-filled, salted  Edifying, soothing  To the soul These very words  Leading to repentance  Calling to restoration  Praising the Creator These words  Same as the Saviour's  Who in this man resides  His words are divine © Sapphire Sapphire left a last minute note  Was listening to an audio by La Sagez 11:39pm  25-03-2020

ALL I WANT

All I want Is to hear you speak Those words that call for trouble All I want Is to hear you laugh So heartily And with me All I want Is to disturb you And watch you Tick the clock yourself All I want Is to tell you I'm ok And hear you say same All I want I finally have And a task To keep me busy Sapphire 07-04-2020

THIS LAND

In this strange land One without water Arid winds are whistling And dried leaves carpet the cracked ground The trees have also lost their coverings Looking up I see the naked sky The clouds must have been tired of this scenery Hence they moved There's no smiling sun too I smell gloom around All creatures seek comfort From nowhere in particular The earth seems to be at a standstill But a touch of the king's finger Can bring about a fierce spin Darkness may seem to triumph But we see him, Who dwells in excellent light As we behold his light We are strengthened And we will overcome Surely, we will Sapphire 01/04/2021
