IYA WÈRÉ by #gbeduPoet

I love Yoruba people,
The way they carry themselves
In their Buba and Babanriga;
The way they shake their bumbum
East to West calling your Peter to come-on
When they dance to their signature tunes
That sounds to others as noisy ringing tones.
They're culturally colourful and spirikoko.

My mum told me, "Evi ka eja, edier ka eja"
Meaning, let the good and the bad coexist together
Because even God is a blend of the two.
You'll agree with me that the excellency of the Yorubas
Compliments their ugly part:
They're kings and queens of excitement emoji, "Ah!"
Opening their mouth like Abaji with twisted emotions,
They pick quarrell from everything the same way
They pick beans "ewa" from the chaff,
They're blessed with an ultra sharp tongue
That can curse you to leave you skin bloodbath,
While growing up l think their parents spat saliva into their mouth
To anoint them with a cruel cursing tongue:
If Yoruba pesin curse you, you go commit suicide...
They're simply professional at this.
