HELLO FOLKS. THIS IS A SEQUEL TO POSERS ON https://oscarpoems.wordpress.com/2013/02/09/posers/ AND WAS WRITTEN BY AYOBOLA RAJI ( @Rayobola ). PLEASE READ, ENJOY AND COMMENT

That is why I chose you, brother

To share this responsibility together

I will fight with you sometimes just as He assigned

But I swear by God and all that is good

You will enjoy it every step of the way

I will be humble and acquiesce when the mood is right

But you have to know to use your authority right

 Image

You are my King, my Knight

I choose You

To appear before you in neglect, nay

All you will see of me is poise, poise and more poise

My beauty will remain like the first day we met

 Image

I promise to let you be the man

In all ways and at all times

Same that I met and fell for

Even when it hurts, you are the man

 

The music I hear when you speak

I love to listen; your voice even the pointless babble

Image

Our meeting, I remember

Listening to your conviction that we should become an item

The flowers that kept arriving at my office and apartment

Although all that has ceased

When the other girls in the office get them now

I remember your love and smile

My conviction, your conviction

We should be together; our conviction

That first day, lone heart reaching for mine

I felt it, yearning, wanting

I couldn’t help notice how your suit fit too

The whole package, a wrap

And your sweet smile had my cupid acquiescing

 Image

You have been my man from that day

Till this day I never tire of our midnight hunger

I trust you; no other woman lives in your heart

I understand your needs, I will walk the line, and I’ll compromise for you

I promise to hold you when you cry

I promise to let you be the man always

 I intend to be the amazon you deserve

A true soul tie;

Image

To your posers therefore

I say YES

No one else qualifies like I do.

I DUNNO

In the past few weeks, I have started articles which I could not finish. I have done some up till the ‘lintel’ only to pull it down and trash again. The rush of inspiration to write comes mostly when I answer the call of nature, or when I take my bath. Sadly however, I have not been able to remember when I step out of that small room. I also have this ‘my-head-is-not-right’ feeling these days and that hampers my writing so bad. It is so bad there is now a folder I named ‘Work in Progress’ on my PC.

It is not that there are not occurrences to write about, it is not that poetic ideas are lacking, it is not that the time has not been available, it is just that there seems to be a block in my head. I keep trying to roll away that stone that is blocking my creative juice from flowing. Maybe by opening the lid of this computer to type ‘freestyle’ like I used to do a while ago, I am turning that curve and setting myself free from the write-jail, a la twitjail.

There have been a few poems to serve, a few articles have also been written. From the ‘Work in Progress’ folder, I also have things to share here but let this just be a form of writing to let you know I am still around. While the day job of tending animals steals most of my time, I choose not to let it kill this other ‘job’ which I am not trained for.

@shaiontheprowl is one whose kind words a forthnight ago rings. He told me to relax while the block takes over me so I can sneak away from the block. Thanks a bunch bro. I appreciate that. Where do we start? Let’s say the next article. Thanks for choosing to encourage.

While I have not been able to write, I have tried my hands on story writing again, been a while I did that too. I hope to come good and do what I do the way I always do it. Meanwhile, I will keep reading, even if it means I will have to play catch up many times (especially with @thebluepaet and @damie_maverick, who wrote wonderful pieces which I could not read while I hibernated).

Let me just pack my ‘pangolo’ outta here and not bore you with what has kept me away for so long. Thanks for bearing with me.
