FINALLY!!!

If you have not been to the four walls of the Nigerian university, an undergraduate of one, or an alumnus, this poem is just for you as it encompasses the life of someone in school as a student . Enjoy . It's such a relief to finally be out of that cage called the university. That hub bub with all sorts of camouflaged wisdom of freedom but in reality a mix of foolishness and dignified rubbish I'm glad to be out of the grasp of fake comfort and popularity, to the real world To be able to express myself knowing there is no special reward attached to what I didn't do or should do I'm glad I'm out of a world of unnecessary ideas that stink and make no sense. (Although some do but we can't just see it yet). What will I miss? I'm still thinking. What will? The free rides and fake tides? The things that are nought but made to look like all, Maybe that.

THE WAR

Dad was trying soo hard to get the family together.    Mother snatched me from the bed, strapped me on her back. Dad held her hand and we made for the exit.    Mum was very heavy, fat, swollen and big bellied. I fear for how she will make it.   Admist screams and panic, my dad ran with mum and I into the wild for safety.   At that point, I recalled my favourite song and started singing. Dad placed a palm on my mouth with a stern face which meant I should keep shut. I smiled wondering why I could not sing in the midst of the fire works.   Mum shrieked in pain. "What is it Honey?" My dad asked "I think I'm losing him" my mum replied. "O God not now" my dad whispered in frustration. "What do you need? What can I do t...
