...A Nigerian Poet...
Rest
I am fallen upon your breasts
And my hearts whispers rests
...
This place of my Love
Is a quick sand with tourist attraction
Like a self-aware mouse knowing
That this cheese will be the death of me
...
Before words became the tools of expression
This love was sung with the effulgence of glory
Too sacred for the unclean lips of fallen man
...
You may trod me in history
With your pretty petty lies,
But just like dust trampled to the ground,
I'll rise
...
