SOME BELIEVE…



Some believe the earth is flat
Some believe the earth is spherical
It is just a matter of where they stand
Their foots dictates their perception

Those who know, do not know why
Those who do not, never cared
I share in their ambience of pains
For lack of knowledge is destruction
Abundance of knowledge is confusion

Some believe the world changes people
Some believe people change the world
I stand in-between their battle
For what they think is their conceivable right

Some believe in the supernatural being
Some doubted the existence of mystical powers
Those who see cannot read signs
Those who can read cannot see the signs

Every struggle is a life’s sacrifice
The sweat and blood of some
Freedom demands from us
What our ancestors died for because of us
Do not mock
For they shall mightily curse your children
To curse you to your face

Appreciate the little life you have got
Enjoy life while you still breathe
Be mindful of little life offers
For there is little difference for each day

Religion is the modern wall of partition
With it, the chords of love is broken
Their Founders buried lens of truth
And the followers brawl over persistent ignorance
But wisdom should tell man
That the dealing of the creator
Varies from man to man

I read little books these days
I read much of the authors
There in every book is a clog of fabrication
Every author is as confused as you are

Tribute

Tribute to Nigerians Who lived to fight But died at bullets sight For justice, for equity For change, for betterment Tribute to Nigerians Whose smiles suffer them And their cries are never heard Who suffers for daily bread While deep inside, they bleed Tribute to Nigerians Who wake up early to sleep late Hawking for bread, hustling in stress Working, but worked out Striving, but starved to death Tribute to Nigerians Who did not place religion above man But place man above religion Who are their brother’s keeper Who honours the difference in others Tribute to Nigerians Whose friends betrayed and colleagues dismayed In prisons and cell blocks for no offense Praying yet; yet prayed for their foes Men of valour, buried without honour Tribute to Nigerians Who saw political fraudsters and liars And were brave enough to stand their feet Not corrupt by lies, not swayed by bribes Who in t...

Diary of Arike

I have done it all. Yes. Slept with all kinds of men. The tall dark fine ones without six packs, the ugly dudes with smelling armpits, the fair ones with body hair well shaved like a trimmed garden. The naughty ones who would insist on everything, pushing and pulling you all over every sections till they ran out of zeal and the boastful ones who would just brag about everything but at the end of the day fall asleep like palm oil inside the bottle. My name is Arike. I would not say I am proud of the job, i don’t even know if i should say i did it for the money or whether to affirm that i did it for a long hatred without healing. I was disflowered when i was still young to know the mounting troubles of life. I was raped by a step father who took the advantage of my unloving mother. I would not blame him, I blame my dad who was drunk to the point of meeting death on the express way. Life has being everything to me- the good, the bad and the ugly. The constant rape never ceased after t...

RELIGION

I am a Christian to the extent that I concur with Saint Paul in saying, “And if I have the gift of prophesy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge and have not love, I am nothing”.   I am a Buddhist to the extent that I realize, with Gautama, that only when a man forsakes all his desires is he really free. I am a Jew to the extent I believe profoundly in the saying. “ Hear, O Isreal, the Lord our God is one.” I am a Hindu to the extent of believing and practicing the kingly science of Yoga, the science of Union with the spiritual Self. I am a Mohammedan to the extent that I rely on Allah above all else. And finally, I am a follower of Lao-Tzu to the extent that I accept his perception of the strange paradoxes of life. I will not walk with Christians into an exaltation of truth above what Christ teaches, those words that have life and death in them. I will not walk with a Buddhist into a denial of the beauty and pleasure which existence holds for me. I will not walk with Jews ...
