CERTITUDE By: David Diop



To those who fatten themselves on murder
And measure the stages of their reign by corpes
I say that days and men
That the sun and the stars
Are shaping out the rhythmic brotherhood of all people
I say that heart and the head
Are joined together in the battle line
And there is not a single day
When somewhere summer does not spring up
I say that manly tempests
Will crush those who barter other's patience
And the seasons allied with men's bodies
Will see the enactment of triumphant exploits.

SEX-ESCAPADE

Sad, but had to be said. Tunde started dating Nina. She was beautiful, fair skinned and petite. "Portable babe", he called her whenever he boasts to his friends about her. Little did he know what he was getting himself into. He said she was so free with him, gave him anything he wanted. In his mind, he thought he was using her, but he noticed she kept coming back for more which fuelled his male ego. In our brother’s mind, he was good.  On the 14th of December, 2016,  she left him without a word. He called her, texted her, but she did not reply and he continued with his life and he dated no one else. Two months later, his brother had an accident and needed blood. Of course, he ...
