Is it safe outside?

Is it safe to take a walk alone without

Having 1 million ways of defend myself

From hoodlum, Rapist, and Thieves running through my mind.

Is it safe to walk alone and

Not be cautious of passer-by’s?

Without scanning the faces of people I sit with in taxies?

Is it safe to be all l can be

Without thinking about the wrath of haters?

Hope one day my blessing be a blessing to others and not a lesson for me.

Will it ever be safe to give alms to the needy without first praying on it?

Will reprimanding my kids for trusting a stranger ever be a thing of the past?

How many words does it really take to create a change?

How many songs do we need to sing to be heard?

How many sons/daughters do we need to bury?

How will our light shine when we live in the dark?

Are we ever gonna be safe outside?

A Poetic Formal Letter to MEMAC Ogilvy

Listening to Rory Sutherland (vice-chairman of the Ogilvy) sparked an infinite interest in marketing in a young writer/social media marketer who’s fantasizing about both of us getting married and building a home together. I am thrilled to say I want to be a part of you (an unpaid internship) position at MEMAC Ogilvy Dubai , United Arab Emirates. I am passionate about the new meaning of marketing, making marketing Psychological rather than logical. I would love to channel my skills as a writer and Marketing Intern. I'm not going to presume that you don't give a damn about the other ladies I've been with. So, while in Nigeria, I was in a relationship with a Tech company ( JD Lab ) as a writer and social media marketer. I don't typically do this, however, I became intimate with another lady (TEDxMinna) as a writer and social media Team Leader. I swear it wasn't long. I was in charge of managing the social media profiles and producing material for them. These women an...

The Date ll

Both, I don’t need the cold room approach either do I need a man that can’t surprise me I winked. (He smiled), that’s cool continue my lady. (I continued) He has to treat me like a queen Make me coffee every morning and night Be faithful - never cheat or lie to m... (His laugher interrupted)) Him: You mean God or a broke guy right? ( he continued laughing), I stared at him like an African mom ready to spank her child, but he didn’t understand the look else he would have never said what he said next. I'm sorry to hurt you, but you should be old enough to know no guy is faithful to one lady. And never lie to you, that’s God stuff, make you coffee twice every day that's a jobless man’s job. I'm a guy, l know best and l speak for all men. It's our nature to cheat. And one more thing (l cut in), l hate when I'm interrupted by men who talks without control. Yeah, I hate women that talk a lot too… At this point, I knew I'm never gonna do this again like he...
