Short Song Poem by Nel Omofolarin

Short Song



Life is an opera
An aria performance
Sometimes we miss our lines
And just had to adlib

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Abubakar Abdulkadir 22 July 2015

A philosophy beautifully dished out in four lines but heavier than the Zuma rock. Things come upon us unprepared - either by blows or drunkenness of destiny, however unprepared we are, we are just as choices-less as an opera singer who forgets his/her lines and had to freestyle his/her way out. That is life in four lines
