Vanished Poem by Gbolabo Adetunji

Vanished



I sought after luxury

For fear of a life of penury

The chase was not' but vanity

Much ado for futility

For I had by me from the very start

Free luxuries for all to cart

I was blind with a perfect vision

Everything is luxury for men without illusion

The little free things of life at which we hissed

Are laps of luxury that are never missed

Until they are lavished

Ebbed away and vanished

Vanished
