NAIJA KREATIVES

In the valley of aspiration  through the alley of desperation I peered into the player's jubilation I feared the delays of faulty dedication I dared to dominate my limitations Like a fry my assumed Rock-steady dedications Were dust My jubilation dead!

UNTITLED  Light flickers at its approaching dullness, After blazing in the splendour of brightness, Diminished with weakening flames, And fierceness made crippled like the lames, At first, ravishing what it could, Until warmness gave way to menacing cold, Quenching with strength unable to hold. . The freshness of a start, Propelled by the urge to impart, To the soul, it was all it wanted; Perfectly summed up as request granted, But it begins to tell in strength, Straying for lack of concentration, Alas! The soul yearned not for this conclusion. . The light was bright; The soul had strength and might, Yet all went with a swipe, Too sudden the ooze and wipe, Draining with ease yet taking away its ease, Till you fret to release, The subdueing grip of weariness. *** Nsikak Jack is a motivational writer and Poet. An undergraduate student, Studying English and Literary studies at University of Uyo, Nigeria.

   I AM I am a lost tributary flowing into the marrow of life Meandering my pride in a lost voyage Daunted by the frown of a passing wind Rolled and tossed into the dying dreams of a pauper Sailing through my adversary liquor One shot to heaven Whispering a prayer for his gin to wash me ashore beyond hades A land where the shackles on tomorrow’s feet Outweighs the fairy tales of hamlet I am a hunchback of truth in a lie Carried on the lips of a widow Who curses the sundown that birthed me Still I will rise like the eleventh hour of Judas’ conscious Tell the gatekeeper at Eden The snail fear not the feet of the cheetah For in his wisdom he traded his beautiful hope for an ugly faith Papa’s drums are singing; Sabali! Sabali! The roasted corn will take you home Kingsley Kojo Antwi is an award winning poet, screenwriter and an entrepreneur.
