Real World


Snow falls in the mysterious barren city of Sahara
Where the beach is cozy and warm in winter
Sir Everest is a short fellow in town afraid of heights
We heat up fire with hot flames of water.

The Poor daydream of favour and refuse to labour
The Rich strives daily like a poor man smitten by poverty
The forbidden fruits are in high demands in our stores
Morals are rotten feeds for street swines.

Mr. Murderer is a Judge with one philosophy:
If you get killed you are simply foolish and guilty
Intelligence hacks the database of  mediocrity
The Preacher cries "Lord! I have sinned"
The Sinner smiles and say "You are forgiven."
Miss truth became a nagging Nun
So we had her replaced by Professor Lies.

Men wear Make-ups and do chores
Women go to work and never get pregnant
Shadows are painted in colours
Pens are simply erasers
What is seen are not real
Fiction is our reality and fantasies its pages.

Years you questioned if God exists. Why do we go through tough situations? It is true we do not always know what God is doing, sometimes he ...

DOWNPOUR

Joshua meador rainy windy day Shivering branches scares fleeing birds Waving clothes seeks The cozy corner of a wardrobe Palm trees block against the wind The sky pulls a curtain of blackness Fleeing kids, jumping Josh jams James Litters of rubbish terrified by drops Groaning doors and clapping windows Closing doors closes stalls Noisy roofs and flowing streams Across the street we see a wetting floor Speaking sky yells out thunder Fright and comfort Cool and noise Just another wet day on a suppose Sunday Paul Aremooluwa Copyright Content       2016 Next Poem

How FG Butchered its Anti-Graft War: Antidote From History

President Muhammadu Buhari and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo Paul AremoOluwa Corruption is not a vice peculiar to the civilisation of modern man and his society. For all centuries it has been a thorn in the flesh of just persons. It strangles justice and systematically leads to the breakdown of law and order. The FG’s anti-corruption campaign suffered a lot of setbacks recently: anti-corruption agencies lost court cases, fisticuffs ensued between the executive and legislature, the presidency and the judiciary, blames were traded between the Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption ( PACAC ) Professor Itse Sagay (SAN) and Attorney-General of the federation, Mr. Abubakar Malami (SAN). Where do we go from here?
