DANFO EPISTLE

Image
DANFO EPISTLE You rush and jump to enter, You rush and jump to drop. If you're sitting on the aisle, For every, "Owa ooo" you must be dollar: You will go down and come up. My fellow Danfoites (passengers) Have one makeup artist: Miss Frown. These people frown like death, Their faces are lightning and thunder, Even when you greet them, Your greeting simply fall on Dock-Fowls back - Odeshi. Their faces are metallically synonymous  With the body of Danfo with patches of suffering and smiling. Anytime I'm on a Danfo, My twin-tunnel is sentenced to hours of torture From intensed, pungent, choking concoction of body odour Whose Place of Primary Assignment is Suck-away. Whenever I jump down, my twin-tunnel sneezes To immunize itself from the polio of body-odour. Tune it for the Next Edition. #2WYTH #gbeduPoet #Ungbemgbe #DanfoEpistle #BodyOdour #wakawakapoet #ph2eko #ojotown #danfo #lagostraffic #lagosdanfo #danfodriver

TYPES OF FANS: HAND FAN

Image
TYPES OF FANS: HAND FAN Every artiste need fans to Blow, But some fans will blow you cold And dry the fire inside your furnace. There are rainbow colours of fans Around you as an artiste, Knowing them and cataloguing them  Like books in a shelf helps you in marketing. Hand Fan: These are the push and start fans, If you don't beg them and push them With enticing freebies, they won't blow you breeze Nor repost your post or even Like it. They can tell you all the things you've not done But have no idea of the things you've done. They want excellence from you  That they can't afford. They can tongue-lash you like Maths teacher, But there Kobo is sacred to their pockets, not for you. If they manage to clap for you, It's a luxurious medal to them. They won't download your song, Buy tickets for your shows; But they want to be given VIP treatment Because they want to take a selfie with you. Download Ungbemg

TYPES OF FANS: STANDING FAN Every artiste need fans to Blow, But some fans will blow you cold And dry the fire inside your furnace. There are rainbow colours of fans Around you as an artiste, Knowing them and cataloguing them Like books in a shelf helps you in marketing. Standing Fan: Although they are standing with you, Standing by you but their heart lives in a distance. They're not static, their breeze energy is not yours alone, They share it like the Grace of the Lord; it's for everybody, When they blow to your angle, you get their support, When they blow off your angle, just have it in good faith, In case you want to faint; wait, wait, live, Life still sweet like the forbidden candy. They will only give you maximum support when you pin their interest on you, Pin their neck of swivelling  east and west; Only then, can you get their attention and support In your middle belt to support your waistline From sagging like a Marlian even when your Pass

MY AFRIMA AWARDS 2019 REVIEW

MY AFRIMA AWARDS 2019 REVIEW As a #JihadistOfPeace, I love preaching peace with my #gbeduPoetry; communal peace, continental peace and global peace despite religion or race. What attracted me to Afrima Awards is first, the Afrima Awards Music Business Summit that houses African Talents/Creatives in a particular room to discuss African music: The Past, The Present and the Future. I was stunned by the VIPs I met and the in-depth knowledge I harvested. As someone whose mantra is, "If your hand never clap, at least, make your face show!" Indeed, my face showed in that event, I was able to sell myself as 2'WYTH, the #WorldFamous #gbeduPoet and on a continental level, they were introduced to my unique niche, #gbeduPoetry (that Poetry that can make you dance to) and as a #gbeduPoet (that Poet that can make you dance to Poetry).  The next day, after the successful Afrima Awards 2019 Music Business Summit, I left my house without a ticket and no money to buy the Regu

BLACK AFARA

BLACK AFARA Growing up as a child, I was that fragile, pampered son, Because I was the Otatane-oso of my parents, The first to my dad, the second to my mum. I was the German floor that planted the feet of my mum Deep down the foundation of her husband's house, After two successful, beautiful Bride Prices on the Showcase. So I came, not just an answer to their prayers But a pillar to make the house stand In case of more storeys to fulfill their skyscraper dream. Luckily for me, I was born in the village called Usokun, The Nazareth, kids kick against in the womb When they are given their Letter of Posting: PPA (Place of Primary Assignment) Like Youth Corpers in the Orientation Camp. Childhood was fun because we got all we wanted, Either by a frown or by a cry. But when adulthood came into the picture, We knew that Adulthood is a Scam. Because now, even when we fast and pray, If we don't work for it, even heaven will deny us her Visa. Anytime my feet touch

HISTORY OF UNGBEMGBE

Image
HISTORY AND ETYMOLOGY OF UNGBEMGBE Ungbemgbe is one of the tropical plants, which bears "flavour-tripping" fruits, which taste several  hundred times sweeter than sugar. Ungbemgbe bears areal fruits just like guava, mango, orange, etc. trees. Through the years, Ungbemgbe has been used for drinking garri (a powdery substance obtained from cassava tubers) instead of fish. It is also used for drinking overnight palmwine to improve the taste of the palmwine. The moment you eat Ungbemgbe, every other thing you eat or drink, including water, becomes sweet. Its after-taste is very strong and long-lasting in the mouth. It has been proven scientifically that Ungbemgbe is sweeter than sugar and honey. There is also another fruit called Ukalabem, scientifically called Aframomum, which is used to complement Ungbemgbe.  Ukalabem is a red fruit (when ripe), of a ginger-like underground stem. These two wild fruits, i.e. Ungbemgbe and Ukalabem, are used to show affection

FOR SALE, NOT FOR FREE Dear Rising Artistes, On a dailies, you've been a farmer,  Clearing the bush, tilling the soil, Planting the seeds, watering the seeds, But whenever, it's harvest time; You automatically, become a philanthropist, Giving out your sweat for free of charge; Your aka for the street now na, "Oga OshoFree", That's why they never value your art, Because they can access it for free.

ASUWEY ORERE

Asuwey Orere means Life is a Journey. Life is a journey of Self, into Self, A journey of Self, to discover Self. Ask the snail, ask the tortoise, They move so slow, Yet, they move so fast to discover Self When the outside world kicks them A round leather on the pitch; They recoil into Self with gravity To discover their true-Self Melted in their moist material: What they are made up of... Ingredients. You can't be sweeter than your ingredients, But can be sweeter when you discover a new recipe. Discovering Self is not an Expedition Like the likes of Napoleon Bonaparte, But it's an Inpedition,  A journey into your-Self, Around your-Self, To open every page of your life With a million questions, Questioning heaven with the gods-guts of a journalist, From page to page, reading meaning in-between lines, Connecting lines into symbols, symbols into figures, Figures into speeches that bake figurative meaning to you Of what S

BEFORE YOU COMPETE, WRITE YOUR SCRIPT: 2'WYTH's (#gbeduPoet) GAME PLAN FOR WAR OF WORDS 8 I met Cephas at Lagos Poetrython, I was endeared to him because he was unique in his poetry style like me. He does poetry with a blend of poetry and comedy with infusion of Pidgin English whereas 2'WYTH (#gbeduPoet) does poetry with a blend of poetry and music of different genres with infusion of Pidgin English too. At the end of his performance, we exchanged pleasantries and contacts and I followed him on Instagram and he followed back. After that day, my usual me, once I have you on my Contact List on WhatsApp, most times, when I post New Content, I share or broadcast to my WhatsApp Contacts. But Cephas has never replied my WhatsApp Broadcast for once. One day, I was online, all of a sudden, he chatted me and the conversation moved from normal exchange of pleasantries to the main reason why he chatted me. He said, "I get 5 free slot for Poets who will Enter for Wa
