Sisi Eko
Brown skin girl, not choco
Your smile is your logo
With white dentition, like you won lotto
Each day, you look fresh like a ripe cocoa
It's natural, a beauty without photo


Sisi Eko
A woman in her prime
Your touch as sweet as red wine
Your smile as bright as the sunshine
Leaving you will be as sour as lime
I don't mind if loving you is a crime


Sisi Eko
Like a colicky abdominal pain
That waxes and wanes
My love for you should not be in vain
This is not just mundane
Love is battle, says Lil Wayne


Sisi Eko
Within a limited niche
We can go to the beach
On horses that move like 4G swift
Digging the shore with their hooves
With me at your back like a king


Sisi Eko
Our love is not blind
In this city it's one of a kind
Every morning of the day
I want to wake up with you at my bay
Without having to beg you to stay.

APONBEPORE...an encounter

Episode One - By Acetyl APONBEPORE is a yoruba pynegyry which literally means a lady whose complexion looks like the colour of palm oil; mostly used for a beauty. Left to me and some other active guys, our sense of visions are used in stylishly assessing the beauty of anything that passes satisfying our limbic system of emotions. It was on a very busy Monday morning when the school just began a new academic session. As freshers, we were seated calmly at the 200- seater geology lecture theatre (GLT) awaiting the arrival of Mrs Okorie - an old, persuasive, English lecturer in her late 50s who always used half of the time to call attendance and the other half to make us read from the GNS textbook. After few minutes before the arrival of the lecturer, a young lady in her 20s walked in through the main door which was just at my 10 o' clock. What a beauty to be amazed, it left me looking skeptical wondering if such being had ever been created. She represented a perfect icon ...

NOTHING SPOIL...

They beef while I smile When I laugh, they bleed At the end of it Nothing spoil My presence, an headache  My movement, a migraine  When I joke,  they cry  Nothing spoil In a corner, they meet To gist and backbite About why I progress  But nothing spoil  When you hate, I know Even if it doesn't show Pls don't stop hating  Cos I get motivated  I may not be handsome But I'm cool I may not be gentle  But I'm caring I may not be stuffy  But very well loaded I mean very well Cos nothing spoil I'm not bothered but bored That's why I put down some words In case it may serve as record                            After all nothing spoil

Worries

Six-hundred level  I'm more confused  Like a syringe bevel That couldn't gain an access route  And feared it might tissue Having spent years schooling Realised this life is addicting With less time with friends and family  Cant imagine a day without reading In order to satisfy my inner feelings Consolidating the fear Is seeing our seniors work harder No rest, from morning till nightfall Some 24, 48, 72 hours call This is not the life I signed for Few months to induction  Beloved will say congratulations  In our hands, will lie life of patients, Friends, families and relations. When stuff level is still on probation Fear, I'll miss my school family Classmates from tipetipe, really.  Years together, when sunny and rainy From wardrounds, class to clinic Even till we start practice Our wishes are to God, almighty. From Acetyl, yours faithfully.
