The Hunter Is Coming

By



I was just in it for the game



I had the words

I knew the traps to lay

I knew how their minds worked.

I had been trained.... By one of them, and more...

Not the best of them

Just a lot of them to make me a force

You know what they say

Beauty is in the details... Well so is perfection

I have had a lot of details, now I have perfected my skills.

I would save you so I can hunt you better.

I would go to the stars if I must.

Or stoop low to the rubbles and dirt, if I must.

I will chase the best of them, royalty

Or fight for the worst of them, peasantry

I don't judge, I never discriminate.

So long as you fit the description.

I will tailor a line for you.

I am that good

I am a hunter

Sadly, no much different.

Except in looks, style and charisma.

Yet I made a lot of difference.

But below, just a moving and calculating wheel in motion.

They call me Hunter

I charge, I don't change.

If you are color blind, I will be your miracle and show you the rainbow

If your heart is made of stone, I will be the hand that wields Excalibur

I'll be the hunter I was made to be

I'll comfort you today

But tomorrow, another will comfort you, because of me

Like a wheel

It is my turn to spin it

You don't have to like it

I don't like it either

But I must hunt

Just like a vampire must blood

I must game

Trust me, maybe don't... But it's not for the fame

There's something addictive about the chase

They call me hunter

And I am the king of them all

I will tear you to pieces

But first, I will fix every broken piece

Sweety, you ran from the wolves

Into the arms of a Lion

You fell from the pack

Into the mouth of the pride

And I'll do what the Lion was created to do

I'll devour you.

The second you swear an oath

To stop being game

And lock your senses from doing what they are good at...sense

I smell it too

The hunter is coming

Sadly I am the hunter

You just became friends with a monster

I am not afraid of the storm Facing it alone isn't something I would lose sleep over But I want to conquer with you Set anarchy to never after Bring liberty to forever more Alone we are survivors, caging the fiercest waves Swimming the deepest seas But, hand in hand we would drown the ocean You and I, we would drink the rivers dry And spit out islands Kingdavid Chinaeke Ofunne Authorpreneur

Solomon's Lair!

By
Rated 18 Solomon's lair  I almost refused to go for the birthday party this year. Solomon always hosted a party every year, and as usual, I always gave the opening speech and acted as the MC too. I hated the drama and fake smiles all around. Each year, new faces present, old faces absent. New Friends present, Old friends lost, only me stagnant. I was always present as the best friend, the loyal soldier, meanwhile I was notoriously known for not celebrating my own birthday. It was so bad that most of my friends didn't even know my date of birth, just my age. Yes, it was that bad! It was an exhausting exercise for me. The cake and speeches, by God I hated the hypocrisy. So this year I swore to him by the old gods and new, that I wasn't gonna be in the spotlight of his special day. I just wanted to drink and chill quietly in solitude. Surprisingly, without any fuss, he obliged me. ''Obi is now a man o'' I smiled. ...

Riotous Love

By
I have always found Tony, my boyfriend, fascinating His write-ups and rants about bad governance and patriarchy got me wet and awestruck every single time I visited his timeline  Whenever he wrote a piece on Facebook and Twitter, he got thousands of likes and comments I always read every comment, especially from women who were mesmerized by his writing prowess I was once part of such women until I decided to shoot my shot, and, like cupid, I hit him straight in the heart A simple "Hello, I've read and enjoyed all your stories, maybe you could write ours someday, hope I'm not overreaching?" I had to drink almost a full bottle of bailey's to find courage for that stunt, and today, we are celebrating 8 months of the best love story ever. He was my Mr. Perfect, everything I could ever ask for and more It wasn't surprising when he asked me to join him and go for the peaceful protest here in Lagos, and like a love-struck puppy, quickly I jumped up and said yes That ...
