DirtyGold:
I'm all for the gain
I stay real
I've got nothing to feign
On a daily
I'm steady plotting my reign
Forever on the grind
Till my blessings be pouring like rain
Known to all?
I don't care about fame
Maybe cos Im private
I don't fancy my joys mixing with pain
Bother nobody
I'm steady on my own lane
So, bitch don't Bleep with me
If you don't wanna choke on my phat cane.
DirtyGold, 2017

What's tha business?
Niga you gat game

i must confess i like your lines like sugarcane

now fame is all you need aside you must keep that cane

i wish you no bane

and when its time to reign i wish you no crown of pain

grind comes grind goes so be sure to keep some for the day it will rain

no pain no gain

from a brother whom have seen pain killed it and still wear the crown like king


#x-marks the spot,peace to all hoods no strings. cool

Nigeria in commossion
my emotion was high
my motion was slow
yet i didnot know i needed a passion
to fight this mission
for my zeal lack lotion


let the struggle continue and the good must triumph

***modified***

Nicely done
An appraisal
So sick to the bone
I like it
The way you kept it in the zone
No lies,
We be keeping it strong
Handling life drama
See how far we have come
Wearing crowns so well
Just shows how much we have grown
Life can be funny sometimes
But that bitch's ass is owned


What's tha business?
corr3ct guy nice banter

i wish in the future we can do something together

word play like icing and cake bet they will chum it all together

more feathers to your cap as kings we will reign for ever

and ever and ever cool

#x-marks the spot,.when thy words cure fever# cool

Did you compose that yourself? I like it.
Joavid, come write me a poem, please... wink

Here's mine to all those we've lost, whether in peace or in peril; for friends and family who, being dead, cannot share our feelings today, here's one for you.

Here's one I like by W. B. Yeats, quoted by Sir Ken Robinson in his 2010 TED talk:

Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with gold and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams.

Actually, you first disappeared strangely (your number no longer showed anything on your profile); maybe it was WhatsApp screwing up BB users. Then my phone finally stopped supporting WhatsApp, and I've not gotten on Android yet. I was emulating it on my PC, but it stopped working too.

The unknown has caught up with me
Now am no stranger but a spectator
The unknown has made itself so miserable
That life became so unbearable
The reality of the unknown
The hope for a better tomorrow...

All hail the honorable minister Mr lai.
The minister for tourism culture and lies.
Your lies are hovering every where like flies.
Oh my,
Your lies are well laid like tiles,
Even the devil hears them and shouts 'bros u try'
recently when u said tomato scarcity was caused by bokoharam, i could hear boko boys shouting '' kia bross that one na lie''
Even issues that are obvious to the eyes,
you still twist them like one trying to knot a tie.
Many times i wonder if your bank of lies ever runs dry,
Because u manufacture new ones as days go bye.
When we stopped hearing from you for a while we all wondered why,
Never knew you went to gather new ones like someone who went to source for fresh wine.
chai!
Just at the mention of your name, truth begins to cry,
All hail the honorable minster for lies.
chai.i cried at ur try.

In my shelf I was
When the wind blew pass my hut
Neither was the weather cold nor hot
But I crawled out
Looking for Mama's breast to suck
But mama was neither near nor heard
Then I knew I live in a world
Were uncertainty is the order of the day.

To love and to hate
Life is a mystery
The mystery of love
When lives love is gone
The unending love to hate begins.

Re: Today Is World Poetry Day: Write Something by chukagora(m): 11:58pm On Mar 21, 2017
It is not for me to know who to love
For it comes on its own accord
The root of love is not known when it is dispised
For the reality of it lieth in the heart.

Night and Lads
The soft night is here Chanting for perfect calmness
But the teens Are where? Dining, clubbing with happiness
The Dark seeks to bring peace Rest of mind, break from day's work
But The Lads trading hot Kiss Celebrating the chicks that twerk
Night does her job afore sun Lads press on with their fun!

THINKING OUT LOUD When your legs dont walk like they used to before And i can't sweep you off your feet Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love? Will ur eyes still smile from your cheeks? And,darling,i will be loving you till we're 70 And,baby,my heart could still fall as hard at 23 I'm'thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways Maybe just the touch of a hand Well,i fall in love with u every single day And i just wanna tell you i am By Ed Sheeran
