"Sodom and Gomorrah"

          "Sodom and Gomorah"

       So exasperating to be here
       Sodom where souls are so     
       dome
       With gnashing of teeth.
       Gomorah where 'go moral is
       immoral'
       Gomorah where immoral's
       faces
       show-up everday.
       Sodom where nudity is
       welcome.
       No more Lot im Sodom and
      Gomorah.
      But Lot's daughter are now 
      sand.


      Angelic voice i hear
      Saying,
      Find fifty or forty pure doves.
      For my dome to be saved.
      But,
      Where are they?
      Sodom and Gomorah
      Where banana spoils
      Folk's voice saying
      Banana ripes.
      Deciet knocks daily
      Even from little rat
      and king Lion.
      Sodom and Gomorah
      Where Lot's wife moves
      Near memorable salt.
      Where brimestone moves   
      near.

I pray for the Lord's intervention in Nigeria.
Poet:Mulekanle Adedotun Adedoyin

Why are you rainbow? Violet plant now equals violent Verberna is now vicious My Green pasture now entertains Green snake under green grass. My tree my home! Am scared to look Into your root, Your root are not deep In loyalty and unity. Your Green leaves are now yellow Your beautiful yellow petals Like daffodil and dandelion That call foreign birds for feeding Are yellowish again. See! The foreign birds Dispatched you to desert. My tree ny country! Alert,your orange product well known as corrupted All over th...

"Living Eagles"

"Living Eagles" Eagles of my era Living symbol of power Your wings give strength But why? Preying on others Is your hobby. Eagles of my era Living symbol of pride Finches and parrot Are not your mate But soaring alone. So selfish and arrogant! Eagles of my era Your nets build in rock For your keen vision: Preying on peasants. Eagles of my era But why? From peasant snake and rats, Fresh loaves of bread and fishes Come. Eagles of my era Be aware! Point of no return Moves near Your milk and honey Remain here. Poet:Mulekanle Adedotun

"No Saviour"

      More I look       Less I see,       More I sleep       Less I rest,       More I sell       Less my profit,       More faith       Less hope.        Looking to and fro        Yawning for my milk and        honey        In my father's land.        In my father's land        Milk showers like fountain        Honey flows like busy river        Yet,        Hunger and starving knocks  ...
