Art, Graphics & Video / Re: Avid Editors Needed For Reality Show. by dammyboy(m): 1:24pm On Nov 26, 2007 |
Hello, I saw your post on Nairaland and I must say that I would really love to take on the editing job or be part of the crew but I am currently doing my Youth Service in Zamfara Sate and this might not avail me the opportunity to be with you in person but that notwithstanding, I can still help out. I composed and sang the theme song for the NEXT MOVIE STAR - A TV reality show which rocked the Nigerian TV audience in 2005 and has gained not only national but international acceptance. Subsequent editions of the show had taken place in 2006 and 2007 respectively and had recorded immense successes. You can reach me on 08066376669 or email dammy2k2@yahoo.com so we can talk more on it. Feel free to check my blog page www.kingsleykekepoetry..com |

Wow! this is great! it captures a very complex process as falling in love in simple poetic pictures, such vivid imagery! , But it was all a dream! I hope you didn't wet your undies! I like your flow and your choice of words! Good write! |
Poems For Review / Re: Victims Of Circumstance by dammyboy(m): 8:02pm On Nov 08, 2006 |
Hmmmm, It's a beautoful poem. Reminds me of how I like it, end rhyme! But it sounds quite unlike you, KT, I guess you know what I am talking about. Anyway, this is a very brilliant poem and it's really very uncommon to find Nigerians engage in social responsibility works such as this. It reminds me of Niyi osundare's "they too are the earth" Good work! |
Nairaland / General / Re: How Can One Make Money From Poetry? by dammyboy(m): 6:49pm On Aug 30, 2006 |
Bros na wa for you o! Well i get the message but i keep having a feeling that there is something one can do online that about ones poetry. I met a lady online some weeks ago, she's a white lady and she said something about being paid to write poetry in an international organisation. She promised giving me hints about that but i haven't hard from her since then and that is really making me curious! Anyway, i am a final year student of Communication Art, University of Ibadan and i am really loking forward to a successful career in Advertising where my passion lies in years to come but that nothwithstanding, i have a feeling i can do something my poetry that would be lucrative! Thanks anyway bros! |
Nairaland / General / How Can One Make Money From Poetry? by dammyboy(m): 6:28pm On Aug 30, 2006 |
I write poems and i know i am very good at it! I have tried entering some poetry competitions online but most of it all turned out to be an advert for selling their anthology. I am just wondering if there are opportunities for Poets online to make money with their poetry probably by writing poems for some organisations and get paid for it! Human right organisations etc well, i am just wondering how a young Nigerian with a poetic skill as mine and other Nigerians with such skill could make money from it! Anyone with an advice could share it with me or if you have a link, you can refer me. You can read some of my poems at http://allpoetry.com/poets/princedammy thanks |

I Must say that you are really doing a great Job! That's really a giant step you took! Well, i am currently in my final year in the university, studying communication Art and i am really crazy about Advertising aside from poetry. I would want to know what you would advise me do to help myself build my passion for advertising and to make myself marketable upon graduation. Also i wouldn't mind if you could link me up with someone in the filed of Advertising! Best regards Kingsley D. Keke |
Poems For Review / The Unborn Child! by dammyboy(m): 10:39pm On Aug 27, 2006 |
Tired eyes wink As stifled dreams blink And muzzled foetus battles Fragile uterine wall quivers disturbed creature quibbles as alien object approaches Broken chords snap Sprawled placenta hangs Sacred Adam, rendered homeless His Eden desecrated Stripped of his innocence Virginal unclothedness revealed With one last breath He voicelessly cried ‘I wish I was born’ His death, her pride Tender flames, snuffed too soon Tender seed, never to sprout! |
Poems For Review / Dusk by dammyboy(m): 10:38pm On Aug 27, 2006 |
The ageless sun sets Explodes millions of tiny fragments Littering the ancient sky With balls of light so high Against this background Nature rest so profound In drifting drowsiness I hear The eloquence of silence in the air |
Poems For Review / Dawn by dammyboy(m): 10:37pm On Aug 27, 2006 |
Slumberous feet sags Tremulous hands searches Relapsed tissues sprout As creaky bones snap! A routinous poetry rendition Awoke nature’s drifting drowsiness Heralded by the cock at dawn! |
Poems For Review / My Eve by dammyboy(m): 10:36pm On Aug 27, 2006 |
Caught in a web of emotion that spans beyond natural tradition my famished heart yearns for a fusion that eternal moment of union Unspoken words in act revealed hidden Passions, so long concealed Eden's flame long lost ignites that ancient quest for expression The object, a damsel trimmed in primmed youthfulness robed in radiant Eden bearer of the forbidden thing And I, guiltless Adam aflame by Eden's beauty my pride to disregard for I have found my Eve in you! |
Poems For Review / Night Rain by dammyboy(m): 10:35pm On Aug 27, 2006 |
On my roof pelting drops of rain dancing rhythmically at nature's ancient beat like strings of beads cascading down voluptuous frame once suspended by a chord, now broken! The lone night sing along in pelting silence as nature's tune resonates pestering drips interjecting man's lawful sail through fantasy land For if nature's drips, man's barn to swell why does it halt man's drifting drowsiness? |
Poems For Review / Maiden No More by dammyboy(m): 10:34pm On Aug 27, 2006 |
She prides in the robe of innocence Hanging down voluptuous frames That pokes at virility But to remain veiled Her immortal task For in such mask Lies the masquerade’s pride She the prey of distant poachers That prowls the forest Partitioned among themselves like coat of colours In morbid curiousity they lust For several moons they were lost Fizzled in the African sun Their treasure, her veiled unclothedness For when they found her Wrapped in glaring innocence A gift of lust to present coated in colours of love for what is love? and what maketh lust? the soul is the essence the presence gratifies that sense And with that coital resolution once advanced to a climax with bellows of passion began as a glow so tender, he treads the intricate devoid of delicate desires with un-bearing clamouring rather spurred by sinful sense he sends forth liquid mortals leaving the ‘man below’ limb exorcised of his emotional frailty a glimmer in his eyes They left us……………. their morbid curiosity gratified but in our heart, a wound the African sun, never can heal |
Poems For Review / Love's Lullaby by dammyboy(m): 10:31pm On Aug 27, 2006 |
Wrapped in your arms, I lay as nature's lawful sail encroaches that bids the day adieu my fears and failures to bid farewell for another day is dead and life's funeral parlour, now thrown wide open another day to mourn Must I, a dirge anthem raise to mourn a passing day when from your lips brim Love's long lost lullaby? |
Poems For Review / Familiar Friend by dammyboy(m): 10:27pm On Aug 27, 2006 |
*This poem is composed as a reaction to the gruesome murder of the PDP Governorship aspirant, Eng. Funsho Willaims who was brutally murdered in his house by some unknown assailants! What gloom haunts the air? what frail mortal limbs lay? once brimming with life so bright now, whisked off in the cruel winds and served in a casket on earth's table for famished worms to feast on as the sun mourns in deep melancholy What beastly creature art thou that prowls man's earthly habitation? disguised as a familiar friend? your morbid ambition, executed with a smile, you cease the bread of starving lads! O murderer! where lies your gains, for those hearts you feed with pains? homes, you plunge to sorrow and flood with fiery fury burning in their once timid heart For this destiny you abort too soon, awaits you on the other side! for know this O murderer, that man is the grave's meat! |
Poems For Review / The End Of The World by dammyboy(m): 10:20pm On Aug 27, 2006 |
I peered through my imagination with eyes that could in dreams tell of a world devoid of destruction inscribed in my heart forever My lonely brush dances on the smooth canvas with each patten rippling crest after crest until my imagination blazes a trail a rebirth of serenity! The moon speaks in bright palette a language only spoken in tranquil climes the leaves opens-up to the sun's warm embrace a rebirth of nature! For when this world rolls away and our pains erased from memory lanes then shall our long lost dream come alive the end of the world, , the beginning of a new world!

Poems For Review / African Child's Testament! by dammyboy(m): 10:18pm On Aug 27, 2006 |
Tell the waiting vultures that prowl the streets of Africa, preying on the remains of our brothers yanking their lifeless limbs apart! Taking refuge in my silhouette trailing behind wounded children, waiting till our last breath is drawn, and a human dinner is declared ready! But tell the waiting vultures that no more carcasses will litter the streets. Our continent, no more a grave yard where dreams are murdered, yet unborn and visions stifled, still in its bud!

Poems For Review / Silent Soliloquy: Is black beautiful? by dammyboy(m): 10:12pm On Aug 27, 2006 |
Alive, though dead! for though dead, yet i am alive! accused and accursed I am caged eternally! Free, yet prisoned though prisoned, yet I am free to walk within the space restricted by the fetters of penury! Tethered to a stake I can only wish for sleep to sleep, to die for to die, to rest eternally from the cruel lashes of pestilence! For if black is beautiful, why do i suffer such shame? and grope in endless darkness?

Poems For Review / The African Dream by dammyboy(m): 10:08pm On Aug 27, 2006 |
Bloated bellied families of coloured race; spindly, dangling frames for support; eyes deeply sunken with no mist of hope, laced with lashes of hunger These are my kindreds -- frail buds of the giant Iroko tree that fosters the tropic African forest; now hewn down and left to rot. Children butchered in parent-less homes where papa nurtures aborted dreams. Forcefully enlisted to war against fellow brothers; mama lays still, in a pool of blood, sacrificed for our wishful tomorrows. We roam the streets of Africa, no longer terrified by death's mournful knell: for our death lies in us the mystery of our empty bloated bellies. Yet, we will survive amidst the incessant threats of penury and the rumblings of infirmity from one vicious cycle to another. We wear a face, naked with hunger and resigned to forlorn feast. When in some distant continents, children have enough to eat and throw away , yet we will survive! Tell the waiting vultures that prowl the streets of Africa, preying on the remains of our brothers yanking their lifeless limbs apart, NO MORE! Taking refuge in my silhouette trailing behind wounded children, waiting till their last breath is drawn, and a human dinner is declared ready! But tell the waiting vultures that no more carcasses will litter the streets. Our continent, no more a grave yard where dreams are murdered, yet unborn and visions stifled, still in its bud! For our sun will rise again, and our earth will bud, adorned in the colours of nature. Our barns will burst in abundance; we will speak one language, one word, PEACE This is the African dream. The cause for which our fathers died. The cause for which we WILL live!

Poems For Review / Futility by dammyboy(m): 9:59pm On Aug 27, 2006 |
Love's dawn drowns my fears when Venus maid, my heart spell bound with rhythm as such the angels sing my heart strings, resonates Love's tune forever I gave my heart to seek Love's labour amidst life's threatening storms, my love lingers still for while some soul attraction drift apart, we remained; two souls, forever knit Today, that ancient melody has changed. Love's rhythm, now resonates painful memories and loneliness, my other shadow after such manner , you left me loveless! For years spent in daylight's labour piling bricks to build Love's edifice are but now a blind man's grope in the dark searching for a black hat that never existed |
TV/Movies / Re: The MTN 'Sunshine' TV Advert ("oh, Jerry!") by dammyboy(m): 12:50pm On Aug 26, 2006 |
Well I read all the comments posted on the MTN sunshine ad and I was very surprised that there are some Nigerians out there that don't really appreciate the creativity and uniqueness of this classic Nigerian Ad. Nature can only be appreciated by those who understands the value and uniqueness of finding true love! |
