WELCOME VISA

I move to the beat of my heart's sound
Each step a dance, my feet on the ground
My legs won't reverse, they only move fast
Each step a sign, forever to last

I scream for help, but it's music to my ears
A ballad of pain, through all my fears
I'm lost in the dance, with no way to escape
Each step a thriller, my heart does ache

We dine in a skull, a cubicle so fine
Eye sockets as cups, shoulder blades as chopsticks divine
I ask for his name, with a cordial tone
He reveals his face, with a sob and a moan

He says "Hello son", with a voice so divine
Like a deity's call, it echoes in my mind
He grants me a visa, with a welcome sign
A portrait of himself, forever to shine

My Journey to Bayelsa My journey to Bayelsa began on the day I printed my call-up letter, which serves as a pass to enter the main camp. Coincidentally, my travel coincided with a period of fuel scarcity in the country, particularly in Lagos, which led to a surge in transportation costs. However, I was fortunate to encounter favorable circumstances on my way to Bayelsa, my deployment state. 

I know

Dark was the day and gloomy the night When lives of youths who for their right Raised their voices with unbridled passion Met their doom while on their civil mission They die helplessly on our street Unprepared, yet long eternity to meet. Oh that our white flag means peace Oh that our national identity remained unstained  We would have walk and work with ease But for the massacre we are pained When will thou arise and shine And put on your purple and wine Let it not be later But rise now, Father of fathers To help the nation whom though loveth  For I know, HE liveth. ✍🏽 David Olumide (Beloved)

GLIMPSE OF HEAVEN

 I see the reflection of my happiness, In your eyes, Picture perfect, Like a bouquet of posies, Like a sky full of sunshine... Defining my journey aforetimes, Prologue of heaven, Heaven on Earth. I hear the reverb of choruses, Hallelujah over there, Someday I'll be there, There my heart belongs, No moth nor destroys, Like a gold tried in fire... The dawn of anaphoras, How joy rankshifts sorrows To dust someday I'll bid farewell I see the transparency of my heart, In your words, Pure  purity, With a blink, past becomes histories I'll be transformed with a glimpse, Just a blink, I am home To dust someday I'll bid farewell In you I love to dwell My home I destroy for a better home, The cross I built upon For a better home I'll live, To the dust when I'll bid farewell © adeolaoguntibeju
