Truth by an Angel
Ears in heaven cherishes a singer
Choir’s musicals she gives a soul
She is a wish heaven loves to make.
I heard she dresses like a striper
Displaying her hot cameltoe
Making tonnes to gather at lake.
Her dress sense makes the sun hotter
In black and blue, she lost a role
Suspended from church for burnt bakes.
Yet in her flaws she is better
Than the people I used to know
Going around as a preacher.

Nigeria: Twenty-third Century Blackman
His culture he held high
Until globalisation
Which is the narrow line
Between sanity and
Insanity widened.
There goes the Century man
Clean in words, stained in conscience,
Conducting church crusades
With thick red blood and guts
Disgorging from his hands.

Speak directly
Have you ever asked questions
Pertaining your expeditions
Down the paths of religions,
Cultures and traditions ?
Do I believe in a Creator?
Yes I do, but I need a mentor
To prove flames and perceive odours
Oozing through these many doors.
My kneels falls on the floor
Sometimes am lost on its tour
Finding a true faithful shore
But I lie, am filled with His gore,
Taking momentum to ceilings
Expecting extra feelings
After a pool of baptism,
I go speaking in tongues
Acting or not; miracle pours
But I doubt and expect more
More to show, like visible dews
We are many, sadly it is true.

Hypocritical extrovert
He stays in clusters
Not far from the trash
His converse and clump
Always fetch a punch
Brawling, war ridden
Everything he touch.
Man of religion
Brainwashes the church.
He ships and worships
With a faith that lurch
He is that example
Folks critic the church.

Trouble knows me
Trouble knows me well
Trouble rings my bell
Trouble brings me hell
Trouble always care.
Every time I sail
I get many nails,
Piercing through my ship
Sinking my great sail.
Am I really cursed?
The preachers do say
For all your sins boy
The debts He had paid.
I often try to pray
But to no avail
And each time I sail
There comes another nail.
Unrest Soul: Churches After Christ Death
Don’t go off in a huff
If I say God is not on your roof
Salvation is not found in a church
Don’t nail me to a cross
Or clothe me in dirty torn rags
Each time I go on a crying jag.
Don’t go off in a huff
When I say
Your large numbers are decorative salvation hunters
Amongst are saints and sinners
But claim to be righteous doers
And ready to go through the roof…
Don’t go off in a huff
When I say
We are not white in color;
After His death the crucifix changed
To a wealthy vision and objectives…
Will you make it If the blackboy comes?
Don’t go off in a huff
When I say
The devil is alive
And my cross belongs within me
For, how many will you alternate when
Every church has its own black field.
Don’t Call Me Mad : Churchgoers
With millions of congregation
Dancing from corner to edges
As the choristers sings; rock of ages
-With sweet surrender voices
Curative surely is for the deaf
To the left, surprisingly my twin-wings swings
Not intentionally or by the act of the whirling winds
Nor the hatred in the tune or song she sings
But for the entire things the bible call sins
Looking through their eyes
I see ruthlessness in their hearts.
I see things heavy for an angel’s eye
Swiftly I swerved my eyes up and down
To the shining roof and floor
And then the well-furnished temple
There goes a rhythm
“Ride on pastor”
The preacher perspires right on the alter
Blessings with no curses he dispenses
The sermon he delivers has the power
“Time is near, change from your old ways” he warns
My white eye turns red
“Emotional” you may think
But the words he says
Are falling into the ears
Of a wrong parishioners
In the middle of a million worshipers
The medley of loud thoughts
Hits my ears
Not even one of them all has a clear mind
The preacher also is a supporter of no just
Dear lord I’m outnumbered.
