I WILL NEVER WORSHIP

-
Countless days, infinite nights;
I have been journeying wilderness
Like I have not a mind of my own,
I've been carrying your heavy cross
Like I have no freedom of my own,
I've been abiding your rude rules,
When my request can't be granted
Useless is my dances in your house
Now am wise and gone, don't call me,
Not again... I will never worship!

For you, for long, I've been sacrificing
I have been timing my timeless time,
Yet your ears were deaf to hear my cry
Yet your eyes were blind, to see my tears,
Yet your hands were short to raise me up
Yet your mouth insisted to speak me life,
Your foot I followed but not to success city
Till when should I sow on a mountain top?
Now am convinced from your confusion
Not again... I will never worship!

Now am gone, call me not, I won't answer
Now am gone, find me not, am not missing,
Now am waving bye to your drilling desert
Now I've found a fruitful fertilised forum,
Now I belong to a testifying tabernacle
Now I become a sheep of a better master,
Now I yield to the call of the living God
Now I open my eyes to his forever peace,
Call me not again... I will never worship;
A man made god.

...from a born's again mind.

TO THE WORLD, FROM THE WORLD

Restless I become, like a leaf, dancing on water, When terms unspoken ripples along my tummy. . I wish I could also spit and breathe life, to walk, But, what dominion has a word over the world? . Since this wide wordy world is not my own, Only these terms I utter -- my possessions. . Behold, these countenance creatures of mine, In many minds, it shall walk, to live, after me. #PsalmsInk © Samuel O. Ogunyinka, (Psalmist).

RISE UP NIGERIA

When will you be corruption free? Oh, my great nation, When will you hold degree? On these your abandoned mission. “Arise O'compatriot!" The way you called, Here now I am, with a good thought Why should I meet you curved? Why must you be pierce to pieces? Why must you be mercilessly tortured? When you wear a cloth made of peace Sewed and unified with agriculture. Rise up Nigeria! Take back your glory, You are the giant of Africa Do not end up with a sad story. Pythons you harbor Send them away! They are your devilish neighbour Let them go astray. Fight them with all your might Possess back your possessions, Those denial of one's right Fight them in all ramifications. You are black And back is beauty, The one that shines in dark With the heritage so pretty. Rise up Nigeria! Take back your right, You are the giant of Africa Fly high like a tattered kite! #PsalmsInk #HappyIndependenceDay #RiseUpNigeria © Samuel O. Ogunyinka, (Ps...
