Epigone Poem by Benjamin Age

Epigone



I am not an epigone
Tho' I read Hesiod's Theogony.
.
I love Ajax the greater,
Tho' I was not named
In Homer's Iliad.
.
I love Dante Alighieri,
If not for his comedy
Why should I tease Jami?
.
How could I forget Taban,
If he is just another Caliban.
.
If I dared ignore Soyinca,
Perhaps today another
man may die.
.
Dear uncle J.P
Yes, you should be a Clark.
.
We need another Agbor
dancer,
To end this drama of ours.
