SEVEN DEGREES WEST!

The Wild West, aka the Old West, was an astoundingly awesome period in American history that every person who has ever played Red Dead Redemption wants to emulate. Now, clearly pop culture has turned much of the true West into legend.
 Many a great people have claimed association or connection to the west. Be it movie stars,music stars especially rappers,sheriffs and the list goes on and on. The west in their minds is a place that places them among the most powerful, toughest, sharp survival instinct, the richest,the most commanding and the most respected small elite class of specially gifted people.
Though there were never quick-draw artists who could shoot a six gun out of your hand with another six gun. #This reminds me of my friend RANGO# But the basics were true.
  I once had a connection with the west,though not what you think. I met a lady,*coughs* she was sooooooooooooooooooooo..................................................................... let the poem explain who she was and her challenges.


Happy Reading!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




















SEVEN DEGREES WEST!




Towards the tail of teens,
so beautiful yeah really really tempting,
dainty body in yellow and green,
thought she could do everything,
but he would never allow her to live up the dreams.

That singled her out among her pears,
never shouts or screams,
rather as silent as grave.


Let me quickly tell you about her,
striving to improve
so that she would never be disapproved

MENACE(POVERTY)

When two Elephants fight,it is the grass that suffers or gets trampled. This is a universally accepted truth regardless of the time and place. What does it mean to you? To me, it means when there is a problem between two people others around them would definitely be affected.



I've seen it apply several times all around the world. I wouldn't be telling such tales with this post-story for another day-rather the pain of such 'grasses' and their hope of survival is what I'll be considering.
The title of this poem is 'MENACE-POVERTY'. Let's take a look with a magnifying lens,at this one hell of a social problem.










MENACE(POVERTY)
Vision incredibly scary

sun,show your fires want to behold clearly

who will rescue the masses

from these soldiers and those having riches.

See,feel their anguish and pain

in dealing with it and other vices that reign

moving_rocks_shattering glasses

killing poor sparing rich

yard by yard making life hard,

inch by inch not even cinch

scattering,hopping,falling

children crying

stores empty parents hiding

sophisticated guns

taking over food,clothes_homes

clad with all sorts of bullets

moving past their entire mileage

a terrible day

birth pangs are here child has refused to come the earth way

countless bodies of those slained

SANCTIMONY







My school (OAU) is currently on a compulsory 'mid-semester break', very funny . We don't know who to trust of the two opposing parties. Reminiscing on this situation reminds me that OAU as an institution is a microcosm of the country itself. Then I wrote this poem to express my feeling. My country inspired its writing,but my school inspired my posting it. You'll see my country clearly in this piece,though subliminally my school shines through. ENJOY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!







Sanctimony


Those Leading the most populous black nation have no shame,
this shameless state belies the hype and the fame,
did I hear giant of Africa?
riding air waves,nothing but sarcastical.

We can not help but to notice our abysmal state,
universities locked students on the street,
we've been here before and we really hope for repeat.

Corruption growing at a very sorry rate,
like trophies and crowns your glory has gathered dust

SUICIDE

My heart pumps 
Higher than me 
Signaling, 
about a journey 


The world 
Not always fun 
Battles 
Ever on, never done 


No restriction, let’s explore 
Let's break 
Break to the alternate universe 
For no limit to knowledge

16th DAY OF LOVE(CULLED FROM 30 DAYS OF LOVE)

                                                                      




ain't waiting forever eternity is a day

look over the shoulder 'til on the way


second for a century minute for a millennium

end of everything abide by delirium,


millennium for minute seconds for a quarter of a century

day for day an enemy to fallacy

special place pleasant face behold always
