The Devil wears make-up

By


She walks in glass, so she never throws stones

She's more patient than a dog, and never cares for the biggest bones

She's more material than a cotton lace

Not even the dollar and Euro could measure up to her sweet pretty face


Her heart is made of glass, easily breaks

Yet one broken piece is sharper and fatal than Medusa's snakes

A day without her is as tragic as Lionel Messi's penalty miss

Yet hold too tight, you crush what's left of a chance at eternal drops of nocturnal bliss


Her time is nine times more valuable than a lifetime stitching

Her love holds secrets safer than the gates of hell, no snitching

Like a cat, her love has more lives than nine

But once you step out of line, you spend a lifetime paying for a crime


Once she was winged and immortal

Lust and good old play, gave you access to a well guarded portal

Like Moses, you finally parted her thighs with your rod

Flooding her heart with a sea of lust, you felt you were a god


She chose beneath her when she settled for you

She was born blessed, so blessing others wasn't something new

But her blessing could be a curse, and there is no fate worse

No verse enough to describe, no earth safe and no place to hide from her vengeful wrath

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 ...
