Reverse poem (Read downward 👇) Gift me the sun   I want to radiate from the fiercely furnacelike Flash into my flaws and flog round the feet Untouchable by insects and man; sultry Search and lost; just its valley melts feel my flames augmented diverse? Just its fearful look I desire- fire I'm bright, no one dare gaze I never extinguished ever Burn me deepest - till My heart moves  from cold to fire Dances to fire Of passion And love Inverse The moon Cool icelike Mild and tender Gift me the moon I want to be touched It burns out there, right?  Wait awhile I'll soon be out Feel me and smile - my desire How will i? You restless wall of flame Choose you over peace and joy - Never!  The moon is the mother of pythos and pity Let me dance to the tone of the mother - fire? No Let territories and powers wait for me to bring comfort I want to radiate from the full moon rising from my heart (Read upward 👆)

Reverse Poem (read downward 👇) I am shapeless and ugly Stop trying to convince me that; I am image of God and my character is my beauty, I'm weary of listening to fake consolations because Those that say look, she's growing fat and fresh Spit and smile to the insincere admiration behind They forgo their mirror; I am now the mirror of life That draws attention and give all sort of reflections The world can solely be attracted to the surface I am the only option they could opt out, since I am valueless and scurrilous I will never say, in my closet and everywhere I go that I am in existence for something peculiar I remain unconvinced even if people want to convince me (Read upward 👆)     

Farewell To the soil of the land - who's Pouring blood to the sea Homeless orphans raging the street Mourning star, boring moon, scorching sun Quiet desert in the East - we gathered  All black - color depicts message We all say - Farewell To the fallen mothers, workaholic fathers Laid down recklessly - your swords The fight is not for now - let's lie by your side we cried 'Cause the gods of the land once vanquished But now who's fault? The future bid farewell  Let the bitter screams reach your abode Were you able to sleep or still holding the soil? We'll all say - Farewell The pandemic disease shattered us Feeds on young to adult - abound painful hunts No comforter, scattered sheeps looking for shield Lost your way and get drowned  Again, hunger turned us to beasts Ourselves - predators and preys Incessant suicide cases - "let's end it here" they said We'll all say - Farewell Now monster city, zombies and animals parade Not anymore our ...

I am opposite of what you think -Lucifer Luring you persistently to the beautiful pit, My abode, my throne, power: what I cannot offer? The stroke of the night, stroke at noon; draw a bit Like a battalion soldiers, a waste I ponder on their lustful desires, throws a 'yes' Inflamed cold welcoming, burning uncontented waist I've provided you ease, power, love, fame for years Lucifer!!! Provided power will fade, territories are mine But you keep your toes tuned to my tones, Dancing slowly and mime, The end? Let's have a toss Fleeting trap, flirting white horse: a goal Ride on with pride, I am watching The hands you can't let go Will burn furiously the whole while clutching... Lucifer!!! Yell at hell, keep your foot Played on the right path, right before you Come to me, dance on your barefoot Yet a paradise is open before you... Don't fade away yet, 'an exchange' Always plunder for gain, "Now, it's a new dawn, I've changed" I wo...

ORIGIN From the central west when measure, Clouds come hurrying with the wind, unlimited pleasure Land blessed with honey and serenity State of Harmony, bound without calamity. Cities, thrones, territories and power Stand, let's unfold our wonders Esie museum, Owu waterfall, Agbonna hill at the thorp end, See marble, feldspars, limestone,clay, digging gold with my friend. I sense the people of my kind, I sense the mud and am bind, Link, convergence of me and my origin, Home, as in no other city, it's called origin. Clutching and close to fumbling all we had - history, Oh you forgot! Where is your tribal memory? Blinding flashes rumble, tremble and crack of civilization, Remember! Not enough to sweep off our foundation. But posterity will demand to see, what little illumination We brought to the scene from the candle-light, a nation The God smiled and bid us, the sign appears The rain came, sprinkling with sufficient drops, save peers. Hear, craggy ocean pyramid, give answer fro...

Long ago, I've heard people talked of how dangerous depression could make someone be. Many people have committed suicide due to depression. It has a way it got deep in people and control their emotions, kicks them inside out, both young and adult. I started taking it serious when I saw many poets committed suicide as a result of depression. Why? I sat myself down thinking of the cause and solution, I couldn't come up with much considering that I've not experienced it. Though, I use to write against depression and any form of sadness but little did I know about it. Recently, two things are draining me but am going to share one. So, I started feeling strange and rejected, definitely due to different unsatisfied comments I got from people about my stature. Sure, these comments are not new but held unto it when it persisted. Thus, I began to hate my look, feeling less courageous and cannot freely proud of my stature, it became worse when anybody mentioned something ...
