NEPA

Dark nights, hot days: You soil our fun and ruin our plays The fridge is warm, the stove is cold Hunger in the house is strong and bold You come and go, you go and come Unsure, unstable, like a dizzy bum A bright surge now, then a yellow candle Our darkest fears you hardly kindle Sweat at work, sweat in the homes In churches and mosques and their towers and domes Factories go without a hum The cost of your darkness is a pretty sum Our books unread, homework undone Though we stay awake till the dark, dark dawn Nepa, oh NEPA Some say you rhyme with 'leper' In your dark we grope And it's hard to cope By Niyi Osundare

Life's like playing a violin

Life is like playing a violin We human beings are violinists, Faced with the chords and odds of life To the melody we make. The bow gives the violin sound when struck, Like the actions we make in life, whether of good or bad. Good grooming makes a violinist play perfectly A good understanding of life helps make the best decisions That brings the best results. The way you handle the violin matters, As way you comport yourself in life. The chances of playing wrongly are reduced, If with a good grip you hold the violin. The chances of drawbacks are reduced in life If mannerly you comport yourself. Famous violinists become famous because they play best. In life you are known by how much you influence others Respect is given to those who positively influence others. Mastery in the violinistic art through diligence, Likewise in life diligence acts as a prerequisite To achieve mastery in what you do.
