At Crossroads Of Rolling Hills (A Poem) by hector: 8:04pm On Mar 11, 2016 |
Please read and make your comments. Constructive criticism if you must criticize. AT THE CROSS-ROADS OF ROLLING HILLS (The Vicissitudes of Uwa) A Poem Life cheats on us life seems like a riddle Life teases and nudges Life muses and makes gentle laughter life acts drama on us she laughs and makes no apology she double crosses and refuse to plead Our sense of reason is inflicted With injuries that go septic Yet Life poses with reckless abandon Expressing no dismay, charity unbundled it gives no heed to traditions of remorse Totally insolent to the vicissitudes of things Hopeful we remain amidst incontestable doldrums Rising like hills afar yet near high enough to occlude collective hindsight An effluvium of a distorted economy Nigeria gutted by the wildfires of life At dawn beyond its Golden's age We swim in her austerity leased to the harshness Of her hostility Uwem tua nnyin mbóm... culled from ECSTASIES OF OUR GOLDEN JUBILEE. 1 Like |
