masterpiecer:

Bokoharam and bomb

Kaboom! kaboom! kaboom!
resonated the deafening sickening sound
children scurried
women hurried
men, left in utmost dismay
entrapped in a terror display
i have seen this before
no, its not a deja vu
i use to watch it on CNN
i cant believe its already happening here
in our own dear country
leaving us in a state of endless fear
but the culprits are faceless
a name without a face
doesn't seem to make sence
Bokoharam
like the slaughtering of a ram
bloodily you have caused so much harm
how long will it take you to calm
when will you lay dowm your arms?
when you see a child without an arm
or a man who can no longer farm
begging for alms because you took away his palm
doesn't it ring an alarm?
were those the teachings of the Imam?
you are an epitome of doom
you, your bomb and its boom
soon you too will be doomed
we will sweep you out of this room
like the dust with a unified broom

Dude pm me for an offshore deal.

Its obvious the op ain't around, so i'l take a shot @ "Oga at the top" for those askin 4 it.

Oga At The Top

He made us laugh and we couldn't stop
With his crooked fingers pointing high
Directing every little question to the sky
Perhaps, d abode of the oga at the top

To get employed in your agency is becomin tight
Kind sir, direct us to your official website
www. nsdc, den he went mute, begining of d fall
"Is dat all sir?" We asked in surprise. "Yes, daz all"

The youths took to social media
Turning the web to a large stadia
Some made shirts, some made songs
To make sure we don't 4get, dat we've been enduring 4 long.

Such blunder from the commandant
Portrays the agency like cake without fundant
Not good i must say, but who am i to talk
When d decision will b made, by his oga at the top

Incompetence at its peak
Driving a once thriving land sick
Would av loved to solve diz, bt ryt now i must stop
Coz i dnt want to say somfn, only to be discredited by my oga at the top!

Arenal and Trophy Drought

8 years and running
It's no longer funny
The fans have waited
With breaths bated
Egos have been deflated
Jerseys gone faded
Wenger says we need patience
But how long do we wait?
8 years have passed, do we keep faith?
We're mocked amongst friends
Arsenal jokes are the new trend
This failure road has no bend
We ride alone, our heads bent
We'll get there next year
Tell that to the cobwebs
That have riddled the trophy shelves
Voices lost in the shout
"WE MUST END THIS DROUGHT"

i dont need to write much
just the much i can write
boko haram and bomb
bomb and boko haram
peace that we had
now its hard to have peace
then came oga at the top
and it topped on the oga
was a thing for a laugh
so we laughed on the thing
i can keep playing on more words
while my words keep on playing
like i said
said i liked
not to write much
but the much i should write smiley

Am more of a lyricist so pardon me if my piece hosts too many ryhme schemes.

***Oga at the top***
What is the website of the NSCDC?
In earnest, exceedingly he chocked so seemingly

The anchors so fluent, the general so insecure, translucent.
Added to the comic food a new scent…

Nigeria security and civil defense corps, Nigeria’s insecurity inventory of intellectual corpse.
A stooge, with badges and military props… seeks solace in the strings of ‘Oga at the top’

What is your website? ...Wait! Wait! He spluttered...The last nail on the coffin, and I see no nail cutter.
I thought he would append @yahoomail… and let the face of illiteracy so far soon unveiled

But His mind was made up like Mary Kay’s make up.

So do you have multiple websites? They gave him no respite
They pressed on like hot iron, till they made him a star in his environs...

Ww dot NSCDC… his post should be erstwhile, a presidential pardon? maybe he found ‘Dot cum’ too sexxual

That’s all!

Oga at the top
Within d uneven seconds reflecting on d gone day
The phone rang,sitting me angrily up on what to say
Hello hello,anyone there pls
I couldn't help but patch through with the voice in ease
Yes yes,you on to the commandant....
Oh oh alright!Gudevenin sir,this is I...
Calling u on u on behalf of Channel tv,
We need to have u,on an interview by morrow
Ok,let's see first if 2moro allows me a bite on a bone
It was there n then I signed a deal,a clown subliminally
What is your website? they re echoed
Just realizing what hit me,I had 2 try
Bulging out my eyeballs,chesting out like a doll
Hands flapping and shaking in air for a cease
Wrestling with my thoughts and buccinator muscles
With confidence,I finally said www.nscdc...dtz all..
Collapsed in my chair,wishing like baby,a cuddle
U mean you have multiple websites..another hit
Ur websites,ok ur websites!yes yes
Wait wait wait, wouldn't want 2 mention one now
Then my oga at the top indicates another
Oh my God..didn't even know what I have done
Until d social media blew me d whistle "Oga at th Top"
I have dived bellow,sought after pears
Only to find giant snail shells...am now d talk of d town
And yet..Only my Oga at the top can explain.....

@hazard, diz one's for you.

Stephanie and James

Come to fink of it, Stephanie and James!
The sound of d names, calm lyk d river thames
On d bank u both should b, holding hands
Sharing sweet tales, ur feet in sand

Time will tell, aw far ur love will go
But lyk gud music, we already know
Its gona play straight and sweet until the end
Haters will hate, but please don't send

Its funny this feeling called love, coz some fake it
But if u readn diz stephanie, bliv james got it
For he requested diz for the both of you
And i had to do this, coz i bliv its true!
