olayinka samson aremu Poems

The great KOWE bird had let out its scream
Let loose announcement; fall of Iroko
Water no more flows, death is the fish's whim
Why aren't you talking IYA ALAGBO?
...

Ancient of days
So the philosophers says
He is the way
A driver say
...

When you waits for my end
You guise as friend
Inwardly ravenly you tend
...

He murdered and the law rest him
He steal, they arrest him
But he lied but none molest him
The law, though partial
...

Here you are my troubadour!
Your wind opened the door
With you I begin my poetic traverse
I hope each step will open to me a new verse

The hate is this life
She's a cruel wife
And though she with me she strife
I got to treat her as rife

Now comes the time when I no longer speak- nothing
But my blue blooded vessel makes the speech

Now comes the time when my programmed Homing Pigeon no more function
...

Your hand is heavy upon my bones,
Tiredness I bear strength no more.
You grip my marrow;
Feel weak for the morrow.
...

My mum told me how love is sweet
And tells tales of how it use to be
But now I've run into it
Oh good Lord! It sweeten me
...

That beautiful girl called Mary
From head to toe she is hairy
She covers her mouth
And turn towards south
...
