Closet Lust
PATHWAY TO JOHN DOE: OYEKANMI A.J
CLOSET LUST
Behind the door
The world is doored
Alone with the drill
Worshipping in the doom
Fantasizing in the gene of desired
Glowing in the power of desire
Eating the apple of death
But how can wit outwit the beautiful weed
Juxtapose upon disposing or displaying
Of the deposition of destructive desire
II
Body ravishing in euphoria of emptiness
Vanity pounding heart of lust
Lost it Godly body
To lose of lust
Recoverable seems irrevocable
Time telling Trials
Trials telling story
Story telling past
Past becoming forgotten
Then victory at the end.
Predator of the weak
PATHWAY TO JOHN DOE: OYEKANMI A.J
PREDATORS OF THE WEAK
The vulture awake to mourning
Cooing to the anguish of the weak
Devouring the soul of helpless creation
Excited in the sterile of helpfulness
What await the predators of the weak
A coward locust that proud to spoil
If not becoming wingless
If not becoming helpless as it prey
Remember a day cometh
When the fearful cat attacks the dog
Arise little cubs
Defend the home of your ages
Rescue the villains effort
From Distasteful foxes
Because your fear is faceless and oblivion.
The lazy man day
PATHWAY TO JOHN DOE: OYEKANMI A.J
THE LAZY MAN DAY
The honey bee had stung the feet of the fit
And the lazy man flee, feet to hill
Wait for the cloud to smile says the lazy
Though he is content to sing to the cloud
Yet he calls the ant inert
Many lovely retrospect has he got
Till the day sleeps
He yawns to darkness
And blames the dutiful seasons
Procrastinating to an occupied sun
Never had he complete task at hand
But he always sees the milky land
Having faith in the hand of fate
He eavesdrop at numb fantasy
Sleeping and waking with wishes
And forgotten to be as the bee.
Stranger in my body
PATHWAY TO JOHN DOE: OYEKANMI A.J
STRANGER IN MY BODY
Who is me?
Think of him but remember not
Where I belong I can't say
Who are you dear friend
Asked myself
Directionless
Wayward increase in my gait
Finding myself in that man in the mirror
I asked, what make him, me?
Me, him?
Why was I not he, she?
What compose me?
What is me?
How do I know I am me?
Who is my stranger?
What is my body?
Who is me?
Tears
PATHWAY TO JOHN DOE: OYEKANMI A.J
TEARS
Cleansers of my soul
Mourners’ joy
Act of my pain
Sweetness of my joy
My lorry of emotions
God gift to me
Catalyst of joy
He died, am saved
PATHWAY TO JOHN DOE: OYEKANMI A.J
HE DIED, AM SAVED
The cross, crossed me out of the cross
Letting me walk on the field of freedom
Singing, out of the soul of the saints
Remembering the pain of the past
Point me to the tree of his pain
Now am free of the fire
It time I take the leap of faith
Just as he pays for my pain
He pays for my joy
He pleads for my curse
Am died without Him
Hallelujah is my song.
We are innocent
PATHWAY TO JOHN DOE: OYEKANMI A.J
WE ARE INNOCENT
We born plain
Yet we know not pleasure and pain
Even though we cause mama birth pain
Mama loves us without pain
We are plain and vulnerable
We know neither wrong nor right
But you claim we are the cause
The Beast said we cause the pain he cause us
The vulture claims we are no better than our play toy
You forgot all rivers got source
If you haven't act, our art wouldn't have ark your
