Analysis of THE FOREVER IS TODAY AND LONG GONE.

Onatola Abiodun. 1993 (Somolu-Bariga Lagos.)



THE FOREVER IS TODAY AND LONG GONE
I
In the journey to the forever,

happy faces and agile heart
breed life into shrouds
and funeral friend too,herein arrived
(From earth's ailing heart,for the christening of a child
in the testis of the father of the man,unborn)

and like the prickly heat subduing the skin at summer

people near and afar shall feel the throbbing of their fundal height.

Then to each wanting the dividends of friendship
made in the confine of deceit
and each,victorious in war that are fought without swords,trust birthed in betrayal.
II
To lovers monitoring the movement of themselves,
(thousands words enquiring same)
not care but an adventure to nail themselves
- Saviour at the deepest of hell and while you lifted your distressful eyes until it for salvation,

a thought come from within,remembering you the sweetness of the joy  housed between the hips of ladies.
III
and manliness when at the peak of potency dwarf the thinking

as you fidgeted through the sweetness of sorrow.

and then reason arrive from travels not to leave again,not to live again

burying yourself deep in the womb of anything in skirt...
