LIKE FIRE. BY UZAH EPHRAIM ORYIMAN

I shall follow The lingering rhapsody To Trace the lightenings Of ages past Badged to seek healthy air In ruined cosmology

And I yearned to know The Handel in Osundare's village tones With acidic elevations That bore silence and succor

I have Longed to learn The weaver of Okri's words Sensuous to the wind Dispersed for it cause

And I wish to bear The confrontations Of Remi Raji's melodies Saddled with nationalistic mantra And I appeared Amidst dreams for the past Life for the present And hope for the future Beckoned on a past Littered in shame and ruins In a present Distil with dismay And a future Drenched in fermented truths

But there's hope Unseen
