Olusegun Akanbi Poems
STANZA ONE
He had the heart of a lion
And the strength of a bear
Ripping his enemies apart
...
Africa! A land flowing with milk and honey.
Devoured by greed and the love for money
Where corruption thrives and war is a common place
Where will Africa show her true real face?
...
Beautiful gypsy riding in a caravan
With a black mongrel and an old man
In the cold winter
...
Fly little hummingbird
Sing to me
And if you do I promise to set you free
Fly little hummingbird
...
Mechanical men built with of bolts, steel and screws
Embedded with a computer program stating the Don’ts and Dos
Wiring the components demands so much care
...
Nobody really knew of their existence
until the year 2626
Prior to that year it was merely speculation
...
I may not have sweet words
Because the truth is bitter
And not all is real
Like the Fool's gold they do not glitter
...
Trip to the moon.
We hope to leave very soon
We packed our bags
And into our spaceship we zoom
...
Friends are hard to find so be careful
Friends are like the wind
They blow to you when your days are good
Friends are like the storm
...
And to all those I have wronged
I am remorseful
For my life is an enigma
And at times I lose my way
...
I have nothing
Except the air in my lungs
Which will one day return
To whom it belongs
...
What are these ancient creatures?
Which once dominated the earth
Left a mark which we will never forget
They came and saw during the Triassic era
...
You think that security belongs to you
Because you have done all you need to do
You think that wisdom belongs to a few
Because the rest of us are fools
...
You offered me a false paradise
When I am dead
You offered me Utopia
But my world
...
What is the purpose of my existence?
Why am I here?
Is it to bring joy to the life of others?
Or to spread despair
...
Once was wretched
But now owns a golden land
Where diamonds and pearls rock his feet
Like giant balls of sand
...
The Best Poem Of Olusegun Akanbi
Superman
STANZA ONE
He had the heart of a lion
And the strength of a bear
Ripping his enemies apart
He would crush and tear
Man of steel
With charm and grace
No one can dare confront him
Or look at his face
He is all over the world
And all over the place
He stands on the silver clouds
And drift through the winds
The colour of his skin matters less
As long as he is bless
By God
Samson! David or my Mohammed Ali
Roosevelt or Lincoln
Whatever name you may be
Oh! Superman
He has come to rescue us from harm
I love the way he looks
His carriage and charm
You remind of Horatio Nelson
The way you fight with one arm
And he looks above the horizon like a demigod
His composure was calm and undisturbed
Oh! Superman
Messenger of God
He prays hard to the Almighty and serves the Lord
Oh Superman!
The strongest man I have ever seen
A man a thousand men can not win
He had the strength of Samson
And the wisdom of Solomon
He is the king of us all
But he will not acknowledge
that title
Firm like Stalin
When it is time to take a decision
Never look back
Takes no permission
The true hero of the revolution
Was Leon Trosky
Washington of our time
Deliver us from the Great Evil
No matter where it may be
Oh Superman! Oh Superman! Oh Superman!
He lives in me
I am determine to sacrifice my life
For the sake others
So that all men will be free
And stand for the rights of men
Where ever they may be
I will seek them in the lions den
And send evil doers to the past
With one blast
And that will be their last
STANZA TWO
He had the heart of a lion
And the strength of a bear
Ripping his enemies apart
He would crush and tear
Man of steel
With charm and grace
No one can dare confront him
Or look into at his face
Samson! David or my Mohammed Ali
Roosevelt or Lincoln
Whatever name you may be
Oh! Superman
When he was born an old witch
Saw a prophecy
That a king is coming soon
Because the Moon was still shining even at afternoon
And the sun was still sleeping in his lazy crib
To live a promising life of adventure
Little did his parents know
That he was a man as a child
Before he would grow
And his glory would glow
Like the Alpha Centauri
Oh Superman!
From dusk to dawn
He lays awake
And would take
Any challenge that comes his way
And would live his life like every other day
And he would live his life for the sake of others
Defender of justice and freedom
Thinks like an old sage
Because he has wisdom
