Ifeoluwa Philips Poems

Oh mighty Ant
Laughing loud lazy mighty mind
Weary and empty mind
Take look keenly the strengthen tiny Ant
...

Who will exhume Judas
Though peter on the sea
Having being glut in a deep blue sea
And ashes in place of petals
...

i was at the risk of love'
while walking on a rough love rug,
all eyes went blind
as the the light lost it smile,
...

There is a needy kitchen
Not faraway the rich bin
There are sicking pots
With tommy up and lizards casting lots
...

Sodom rebirth
Gomorrah in birth
Sodom in fashion parade
Gomorrah busy with her trade
...

Oh comes swiftly the night
night ushering my heart
to where you are
making stick my legs to a point round
...

.
Blood of cowries
Innocently shed
Meanwhile, a white ram is laid
...

Your eye is full of petals light
And there are blinking roses in your eyes
The beauty is beyond measure
And countless love treasure
...

Graveyard becomes richer
Cos there lies rich potentials
In grave are many unwritten stories
And veiled treasure in grave
...

#The_Talking_Drum

Speaking bewildering
Tongue dictates alluring
...

I have sold the peace
For just one gold piece
I have laid aside my fear
After all i got from life wasn't enough fair
...

My race of black
Inmate of klutziness in mind
Trapped in act of thick black
So much to tell, yet no one mind
...

Here we are.
Where murderer becomes King's kin
And innocent the King's foe
Here at the round table of stupidity
...

I have my tongue split
I have it's margin in piece
I have my words in number
I have all the counts asunder
...

Love is an entity that is bound not with time
It has no definite season of expression
Love has no moment of displeasure
For every moment of love is full of pleasure
...

(Dedicated to the massacre that happened in Owo @ Ondo State Nigeria)

A loud unspoken word
In our dear beautiful green world
...

I have a groans in me
I need a long walk, but no one to lead me
I want to make the journey
In sweet ironical taste of honey
...

She was a pure gold
Fashioned with rust
Reality was far to her old
And in wrong she trust
...

There is a strumming of strings
Across the liberty road
There standing a blind bairn who sings
All men watching with a loose lips on the road
...

The Best Poem Of Ifeoluwa Philips

Laziness

Oh mighty Ant
Laughing loud lazy mighty mind
Weary and empty mind
Take look keenly the strengthen tiny Ant
Slumbering and snoring
So harshness your soul cut snaring
Long sleep and short think
What a brain have the Ant to think
Take your cloth off your eye
Coming soon the sun into an ice
Working hard in dry season
So Ant works for the rainy season
As Ant with minus mind
Yet, bigger than your gigantic lazy mind
Take your bed on your head
As time far runs your future ahead
Time is quite but swift
Success acquired the boot of the swift
Who has has learnt its move
Yet still has the gut stick in the grand without any move
Wake up your head oh sleepy mind
How then you know not that you're the product of your mind?
As life is short
So the moment for your soul so short
Take your mind out
And be crazy from inside out
Mind my words of lazy
How then as little as ant is, it never encouraged to be lazy.
