David Oluwatobi Akinola Poems

Blasts like earthquakes, started at target points,
Spreading circularly with a combination of forceful winds and wild tremor, ripping-off roof tops and causing buildings to crumble,
like fired cannon-balls, humans succumbed to this force.
No bloodsheds, but a ginormous massacre of every living thing within its blast range.
...

When will I stop seeing the arrival of Army Aircrafts whenever I wake up?
And start seeing the usual arrival of a bright warm sun.

When will I stop seeing paratroopers fall to the earth?
...

It’s deep to see,
A lifeless body,
Whose headless body has a fountain of blood gushing out of it.
...

Kobe Bryant,
Like David conquering Goliath,
He’s conquered the greatest at infantry.
...

Behold a little baby,
Looking weary and never stopped crying,
Pretty and robust,
Making me ask why she was abandoned/alone.
...

I planted beside the waters of friendship,
Trust and loyalty,
But reaped betrayals and disappointments.
...

At night,
The curtains are still,
But my candle flame keeps dancing to a strong wind;
The curtains are still,
...

During the campaigns,
we heard many things,
but its been years now and we've seen practically nothing.
they spend hundreds of thousands, but claim to spend millions;
...

The devil is weak,
The devil is ill,
The devil is dying.
...

Kirikiri is not a food,
But whoever consumes it, even a morsel, testifies it was prepared with the flames of hell; and,
Some fall ill during or after taking kirikiri.
