Biography

a nigerian poet, teacher and researcher

80 YEARS OLD MAN

There has been mimes and hums Reels and climes Sweat tear sudden slush Amid sorrowful reminders of yore's sake Pavement of stone ages Bore bear sudden throws Such suckerpunch as though we were begging for limited breath Trusting ages scenes as boys on a swing Limited hope limited sight The swing was the joy for the hopeless times 80 years old man Relishing in soft skins And decaying stomachs Quantanomoed in dreams of MILIONS Africans 80years old man An elderly Casanova in Dubai
