How may I help you?
The ten million-dollar question
Me and some souls dubbed reps
Take delight in asking by obligation
...

Two love birds:
Singing together,
Perching together,
Roaming together.

Symbolic year-
Orwell wrote a book and called it that
Then was when I was ten
Soyinka was two scores and ten
...

True gaiety moves you close to tears
When happiness is cloned you 're moved to tear
Where I am, I am with my angels
When I vamoose, I vamoose with them all
...

Three birds perched
One flew away
Two remained perching
Another flew away
...

Start by writing anything
and calling it your own poem
Fold your arms and eyes
and wait for people's critiques
...

I am a soldier!
Albeit I don't own an Army uniform
I belong to the Mafia!
Albeit I never saw Sicily
...

I decoded this code
I decrypted this crypt
Once written in Roman
And later put in hieroglyph

The best numerologist of you is you
Nobody knows your number like you

One beautiful man named Lawrence
and his bosom friend called Michael
Chose to re-christen me in 2009
They both slept and had one dream

The Best Poem Of Kolawole Ajao

How May I Help You?

How may I help you?
The ten million-dollar question
Me and some souls dubbed reps
Take delight in asking by obligation
We make this our routine
Because to do so
Often gets us bacons in our soup
We took some proficiency exposure
Before moving afield
In the course of duty:
We talk to humans,
We talk to ghosts,
We talk to apparitions
And again in the course of duty:
We get praised to heavens,
We get worshipped to idols

What a funny world:
Where you see not those you dine with!
