THE FOOL I ONCE DATED

By -

By  Precious  Eminent

So boastful like the wind
So lowly like the seas
So fat like fattened rams
As dark as chicken’s ass
The limitations were unknown
For Love had bound my sight

He who sucked coins from me
He who used the cunny words to beg
He was not a friend but a gold digger
He has gone behind the lions back
To see the lioness. I will not roar

Will I roar? No I will not for he is not a threat
He is an unsweetened meat full of fats
He knows not that the lion’s teeth are not made of sweets
But of indescribable bones I will tear him apart with swings

Of ego, kingly elegance, with the armored achievements the 
Upgrade will be so bursty that he will fear my foot prints
He is nothing more than the fool I once dated.

The Boy Who Was Not

Deola insists that the market route is faster. You hesitate, because you hate its rowdiness and— "...and those silly boys that will be holding your hands and clothes because they want you to buy from them,” after saying this, you deliberately cringe in an effort to convince your friend to change her mind. "Calm down, jare," laughs Deola, packing her oversized notes into her tiny red bag. "See, we can stop by that my customer's place for fried yam. You know she will reduce the price for us." You don't have to see her eyes to confirm there is a mischievous twinkle in them. Deola is cunning. She knows the perfect bait to draw you in. And yes, you would shamelessly capitulate to fried yam. No one knows where your enthrallment to it began, but Deola is sure it is a curse. History has it that, at 3 years old, you found your way to your mother's kitchen, and somehow toppled over a small pan of hot oil, the reason for the scar on your lef

When STAYING TOGETHER Matters: How To Make It Work.

Picture two little rowing boats setting off across a choppy lake. A man sits in one, and a woman in the other. They have every intention of rowing side by side, yet they begin drifting in opposite directions until they can hardly hear each other above the wind. Soon the man finds himself at one end of the lake and the woman at the other. Neither knows how they drifted apart, or how to reconnect. Now picture two newlyweds. They stand at the altar and pledge to live together in love and harmony. Unfortunately, 50 percent of the time it doesn't work that way. Unless their relationship is maintained and cultivated, they will grow distant. That is why two romantic little rowboats often drift toward opposite ends of the lake. So how can husbands and wives stay in love, and stay together for a lifetime? The answer is to row like crazy! Take time for romantic activities. Think about each other through the day. Avoid that which breeds conflict and resentment. Be aware of each other&#

The Shadow Encounter

Written by Peace Eneja It was cold that night. The harmattan had gotten intense. If I wasn't in Nigeria, I would be expecting a snow fall. My ribs shaking ,the same movement as my lips. I was shivering at a corner, praying that I lay my hand on something, anything at all that I could use to keep myself warm. I was alone in the dark, in the middle of nowhere. I couldn't even tell what I was doing there. Then suddenly I saw a tree moving closer like a masquerade towards me.  Oh! That's funny, because trees don't have legs, so why would they move...sorry walk?  For a moment, I thought it wasn't real, it shouldn't be. Then I closed my eyes so tight, hoping that it was just a dream, that it'll soon go away. Then I opened them again, it was still there, as real as day light, right in front of me. Then I started to run as fast as I could, throwing my legs away...sorry my shoes. But it was still chasing me, right here and there. I couldn't outrun it. &q
