The Sweet Hour of Muse By Morayo Oshodi



Wide awake at midnight
Then a voice in the wind
Harsh but true said 
They think I'd just give up
When I'm almost at the end of the tunnel
I lay down and slept 
but my subconscious 
ranted away...
Could this be convention?
This smell as rot fish 
Filling the atmosphere.
Alas that I may be choked up in it?
When there are waters
That haven’t been stirred
not to mention rippled.
It takes a little time
To cock a gun and shoot.
Risk is what makes life beautiful
Don’t you think so?
The confidence that matches up
to it tells you you aren't far from your goal.
A fearful mind will only bring aches and pain,
trouble and distress
but a heart that dreads mediocrity is
free to explore even the uncultivated land of life
When I sleep it's only for a few hours 
Not that I suffer insomnia
It's because there's a new dawn to wake up to

When The Flood Storms By Morayo Oshodi

It all started with a drizzling Some others considered it a trickling Until the buckets got filled from leaking Pregnant and swollen the ceiling So the waters broke, toh toh toh  Was the sound of a leaking ceiling. A rhythm worth freestyling. They say make hay while the sun shines. But none while the clouds gather It's been 7 days and your beaming self hasn't shown up instead you had your cousin blow the hay away. Its been 7 days..... Slow and steady drip, drop, top. The flood sneaked in without a storm. So you got caught up? in 7 hours of traffic? So you didn't drown? You could wade in the waters. Swimming was the highlights. And then Kayaking Oyinbo man. Free movie ticket and popcorn? Perhaps for Isoken . Will flooded cinemas go.
