TO AN ANGEL

I cast my gaze heavenwards
To a place where the love angels dwell
I can't see you, but hear my words 
And my heart desires as well

She placed her heart on a platter
Not for me to consume nor to savour
But to keep ahold and cherish forever
Yet, shower upon a sheer ardour

Dear love angels hear my plea
Life changes like a quicksilver
I know not tomorrow, though I see
But I yearn to keep her forever

Quell my worries, my fears too
I'm possessed with ardour
If I lose this jewel, I'd be a fool
And ridded of heavenly favour

Would you rather plume out now
Perchance I'll see your celestial visage
As you clad in a holy alabaster gown
And set your ear towards my message

Bless me with plenitude of wealth
So I can give her a paradise
And from all quarters of the earth,
Pluck her the treasures of life

SLAUGTHER HOUSE

Tis a slaughter house, ne'er a refuge home
Young and old, they kill our kindred own
Day after day,blood and tears runs like a river
Alas! No stern stance, but asleep our own leader
In luxury of his comfy mattress
Lo and behold our dangling hopeless heads
Craving to see no more massacre
Oh! Heaven we call, bring forth succour
                                     

ASAKE

ASAKE is beautiful
Lo and behold,
the very epitome of a beauteous woman
Cursed with an aspect,
that outshine the moonlight
Yet a magical eyes that arrests souls
Her glossy ebony skin nick away sight
Overcomer breathes no where her beauty tempts
Alas! Asake, flawless but a bilious vixen
The smudge on her sweet perfection.
