Adedolapo Olisa Poems

Have you ever seen a man happy to die?
running and eager, gazing at the site
with doubts resounding and questions like 'WHY'?
but in all still longing for the bitter bite.
...

After a long while, i now need to sit and think
as a lot has happened in my life i thought was still very short.
I now miss my brothers and sisters, so much
that i sometimes go to bed when i don't feel sleepy
...

Above all lies one virtue
the commandment's summary
and our duty to man and heaven
but in lack to all in existence.
...

Losing a poem is like losing a life
A poem that seems set to make history
then itself now becoming history
by a saddened mystery
...

Pay me to trust, really, pay me with a blank check
on a platter, make it a sweet story just to trust
fix my history, mould my present
hold my future, meet my prequisite just to trust
...

The occupants of my mind:
Swift speed
calm terrain
emotion blitz
...

I live on earth with one single ambition
I want to get my crown, throne and mansion
I want to relax through worship to my father, not here,
Where to relax holily, I have to subdue temptation
...

The weary days are over
and now i can say it all over
to any one with a listening ear,
I mean all my errs
...

The limitation of a shallow mind
better still, a faithless soul
little like a mustard seed is all I need
but like a 'grain' of salt have I not
...

The brute Force of the WORD
Tells the wind mill to spin
it drags the wind's next of kin
buries its authority, and makes it a disciple
