Wale Morakinyo Poems

1. I seek to know what friendship's about!

So I turned to the rivers for answers.
...

Discrimination for years have stay
We are we and they are they
Close thee my eyes for they are they
In pain or loss they are still but they
...

Nearest to the thoughts from a condensed mind,
Filled with vague emptiness and ambiguity,
Is the heart that drains away that which is learned,
Harkened to for a while but let go for obscurity,
...

I bid Farewell, Wayfarer
Thrust your way further
Like the vestal the phallus thrusts through
Journey the skies with splendor through
...

Some words are far lost
Ever before they were formed.
Some thoughts are ready to distort,
So don’t bother them constructed.
...

I seek to know what friendship entails!

It's a good clothe that's worn roughly.
A good wine drank to the excess.
...

I'll endure a little more
Yet a little of this road I tour
I have danced, my heels to touch my hand
To this rhythm that hoots in my head
...

Now that you have done it!
And your tool retracts, drenched in the juice
Back to its place like a sword its sheath
...

Let us sing the coup d'etat song
The sound of the gong to click the Khaki boys' ears
A rhythm of red tape to bar their wild rage
When we sing, clap and dance,
...

The Best Poem Of Wale Morakinyo

Read My Lips

1. I seek to know what friendship's about!

So I turned to the rivers for answers.

Because the city was running mad.

There on the street of no-streets,

5. I met my friend of no-friend;

Who holds the title of no-titles

He said to me ''read my lips''

It's a good clothe but worn roughly.

A good wine drank to the excess.

10. And then he mutters some words

But all I'd heard has been my voice

My own voice!

I know my words and can't be stolen

So roared I to him in reply, "read my lips! '

15. Here again the voice is not mine

With one asking came I hither

With two askings I should have left

Now go back I with one answering

"No one answers my asking, but me! "

20 And that is friendship just unraveled
