THE ENTANGLEMENT. (2.)

On either side of,
The crimson divide,
Sat two hearts that,
Beat out untruths.

Pretending all is forgiven is the highest form of deceit.

THE ENTANGLEMENT. (1.)

The month came,
To me, of the same,
Need to feel good,
Again, 'cos I am no wood.

At the red table, many things become scarlet.

SOME NONSENSE.

In life such desire manifests,
Upon ones creativity one invests,
Upon ones intelligence one banks,
Upon ones wisdom is placed resilience;

Upon the strength of ages,
Past, future and present,
Upon the combined forces,
Of goodwill and positivity;

A man may come,
Into his own,
Or lose it all upon,
Some flimsy whimsy negativity.

NAIRA. (2.)

Unfit women deliver,
Babies to be sold,
Into any fold,
Just for some paper.

NAIRA. (1.)

As worthless as it becomes,
Increasingly is hard to get,
The struggles of stable incomes,
Stacked against the failed goals set.

ENABLERS.

They act one way,
But reveal another,
They say good today,
But really do not bother;

Thiers is a milky mirror,
Reflecting good intentions,
Whereas behind the door,
Lay unimaginable tribulations;

Once out of the womb,
The state clothes poverty,
People pay their way to the tomb,
Accompanied by all sorts of uncertainty;

Thus empty husks await,
Liberation at the borders,
Stuck here, tolerating what fate,
Over there, better opportunity reorders.

The Nigeria state enables extortion, regression, repression, depression, oppression, disillusion, suppression and overall backwardness.

The vast majority of people in Nigeria wish they were not born there, many claim they love the country but are actually stuck there in hypocrisy.

If offered an opportunity, many will denounce citizenship and announce loyalty to the better climes even if he'll offered any of such.

CUTOFF. (1.)

The future is in jeopardy,
As the present erodes all merit,
For the past disappears with alacrity,
In the face of continued discredit;

All know that advances of tomorrow,
Are built on foundations of today,
As yesterday gave us innovations to borrow,
And instructions to put on continuous replay.

The Education sector of the Nigeria state is in danger of advancing mediocrity as they gave set the lowest standards for the workforce of the future.

The unified exams that select prospects into tertiary schools that grades students in four subjects each one hundred marks, now require just twenty-five per cent as pass make for those wishing to get into the college's of education! While others require a mere forty and thirty per cent to gain entry into university and polytechnics respectively.

Anyone with a modicum of commonsense will know that this is a deliberate act to further plunge Nigeria into abysmal economic situations among comity of nations that set higher standards for their future workforce.

At this rate it will be a wonder if there will be a viable country in the next century and if there were, then will be a puppet in the hands of greater powers.
