When riches comes, call my attention, I have a story to tell. To thank Her for not been in a haste. For leading my feet to the school of discipline and my hands to hardwork by default, For building my faith on Christ the solid Rock by response, When Riches comes, remind me, I have a question to ask. Nothing so dearly, my heart won't give Sadness so far away because no value to gamble. Creativity, highly esteemed, so we rode on local wagons. At 100, our fathers were healthy, Natural herbs proved potent, unlike our 'so called' improved health care of today. Riches, Thank You!, Your delay made me wealthy. But Riches, unlike Silver-spoon babes, You live in their past, ready before birth, But to us, you live in our Future. Are you not accurate in statistics to see the future, Knowing those who love you and use you for others? From those who love you but use you solely for self? Everyone loves you, you know. Hmmm, Agur's prophetic revelation ...

To a coy mister Here's a coy mister. Shutting eyes to all sinister. Here's a coy mister Adjourning love fi esta. Here's a coy mister Loving to blister. Here's a coy mister Caring is a glister. Here's a coy mister Engrossed with timeless si esta. ....that dope eyes Would be eaten by lice. That covert fiesta Would become yester. That blister Would soon dister. That glister Would make him a lister That timeless siesta Would make him a eternal mister. © Apeketheblackbard

We wasted days and wished, Like princely kin to be, Yet when the day is dawn, And work is brought to us, We flinch and walk away. We wasted years and wished, That when we grew we'd reach, Heights to have been built, In perished years of youth, Then curse and cuss at life, For being quite unfair. The day is young for you, To make up for wasted years, For only while the sun shines, Would the hay be made ready, Lest wail you in turmoil, When the need shall arise. @4tuneHills ©2018

Can you imagine anything as chaotic as Lagos traffic, I mean seriously it's a mad house. My friend always told me how awesome Lagos is but that traffic tells a whole different story. How else do you explain getting in a bus and then the tire busts, the conductor puts you in another bus and that once tire busts too, all this when you are in a hurry! Wow! Then the Yeye conductor will open his brown teeth and be laughing, seriously. Lagos traffic has the ability to change people, it turns a perfect gentleman into a beast, a lady into an animal. It literally transforms you. But I guess that's what you have to do to survive. Off the road they are perfectly normal but Once they get on the road it's like something goes of in their heads and next thing we hear is hulk smash. Lagos traffic turns a ten to fifteen minutes journey to one hour fifteen minutes journey. I mean I have to get up at ungodly hours not to do ungodly things which would have been expected and/or acce...
