Just a Passerby



Aminat's brother was clobbered to death
On the windy night of Friday,
Stabbed a thousand time 
Before leaving earth.

News came ,that her brother is dead 
The water rolling down from her eyes
Is enough to erode olumo rock.
But she was consoled to laugh instead.

Tell me ,how does laughter suppress grief ?
When you ought tell her to act and cry
Because her brother is no longer with her 
Gone and gone forever and that's brief.

The cockcrow of yesterday
Brought calamity for Mr Shodiya
Because his baby girl was kidnapped
And no where to be found today.

Ask me ,where I was when all this was happening?
I have been to Church 
To pray for my own safety
Because no one knows what's coming.

My neighbour said, she saw the police 
Collecting geld from one taxi driver 
But she couldn't talk for the awe 
Of what happened to her niece.

The man at the corridor of the pub
Was confirmed dead by our slim doctor
Due to the fact the he hasn't eaten any thing 
Before Taking shots at the pub.

Ask Emma,
To talk about what he has witnessed,
Am sure he's going to say 
Am not at home you can ask Grandma.

Why Worship Leaders Aren’t Cheerleaders

If you’re familiar with cheerleading, then you understand its purpose is to generate spirit. It is scripted, coached, practiced and performed in order to rally enthusiasm, create energy and spawn excitement. Cheerleading includes a variety of synchronized routines such as songs, dances, chants and stunts. The cheerleaders implement these various actions with three- to four-minute routines to work up or generate the spirit of the spectators. Some cheerleaders even admit their exuberance isn’t necessarily something they actually feel but instead something they put on, much like their facial makeup.
