    Poem Commentary

    I love my country, I live in it seeing the slow but ugly change that is taking place in her knowing that I may not have the power to change her but still believe that She who cruelly treats me wrong now will one day in the future change for good.

    Madly in love

    I will fill your ears with the breathing of my broken heart
    let it cry of the long union between you and I
    speaking plainly from the depths of my spirit about to die
    amoured memories keep my soul fast upon its sad path

    Yes I loved you and I think I still do
    my ears are waxed with your lies over the years
    lying in your arms I come to face my old fears
    dreaming of the owl who asks sagely, who?, who ?

    For your freedom I fight battles with our master
    as my green horn was ripe with dreams and hope
    now my angel your hellish sight I barely can cope
    as your lovers groom you into a dazzling monster

    Yet I stand by you, yes I do without a choice
    my night tears water the dream of your youth
    you were meant to emerge an angel not a brute
    my Aphrodite clone tempered with a demons voice

    I love you my hard hearted Naija, I do still
    your promises lie in my heart cast in steel

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
