Writers' Fate Poem by Oluwatosin Thomas

WRITERS' FATE

Writer of the present era,
Conceived and raised in the illumination of the gods.
Literary path they showed me,
Never to be them but to seek what they sought.

Winter and summer, i lay my lines.
Explicit and abstract, still in my lines of ancestors.
Lines of creatity i wished, and end to it i prayed not.

Papyrus and cuneiform, all i grew with.
Path to creativity i've achieved,
Troubled now, for my well appears dry.
Oh 'er DANU, sandy not my well of inspiration.
SADV, inspire me i pray.

The folks of my ancestors, a letter to you.
Soyinka and achebe i call on thee,
Men of old i beckon you all to my request.

An answer to this am in need of...

DOES CREATIVITY HAS ITS ERA?
