Being YOU!

...Sing like no one's listening Dance like nobody's watching Talk like not a soul is listening Imagine a world of just you, and there'll be no reason for pretence. Imagine a world where its just you and there'll be no one to impress. We've faked so much already, we now can't really tell what we like from what we don't. We've lived another man so perfectly, treated his illness so wonderfully, and left our true self and its weaknesses hidden so carefully. Forgetting so easily that the only true person we can be is us, even bodily. Imitation is the easiest way of Flattery, Being your true self is the fastest way of getting to perfection. LOSE YOURSELF(say no to pretence), LIVE IT LIKE ITS ONLY YOU AND NO ONE'S WATCHING. Its the only way we can get to know our own self. Be yourself, Show yourself(discover your flaws) and treat yourself(making right what's wrong about you). Note: If you've not made mistakes, then its clear you're playing

I May Not...

I may not be a fast walker, but I won't walk backwards. I may not win the match or score a goal, but I won't score myself. I may not win the war or kill an opponent, but I sure won't shoot myself. I may not be in the frontline of the battle, but I won't sit back at home. I may not have all the words to say to her, but I won't keep quiet or hold back the one syllable I've got in my head. I may not be the hero, but I sure won't get killed in battle. I may not have it all, but I won't lack at all I may not get it done, but not like folding my hands and not start at all. We cannot do everything at once, but we can do something at once. Some say; "Its Do or Do not, there's no try". But I say; "Every Do started with a try" If anything, one thing I'll never do in my life is GIVE IT UP BEFORE I EVEN START AT ALL. Be a fighter! Be a starter! You'll be surprised, IMPOSSIBILITY lives only at the point called START. ᶥᵗˢ the 'W

The Game Called "Circles"

...There's a game called 'Circles', you can never EXHAUST. You could keep-keep trying, but ofcourse it comes with a COST. Little wonder, scientists found out, the earth is a BALL. Kick 'It' here and 'It' rolls with a turn, and comes back to hit you with a FORCE. Simply beware of what you say or you do, 'cos on it hangs the CORD. When you 'Dig', dig with care, 'cos you just might be up next for a FALL. Live easy, Judge easy, 'cos life is a BALL. In the game called 'circles' there's no where to TURN. Its start to finish, its keep rolling untill it gets back to US. In that game called 'circles' there's no tired or weary, cos it all keeps turning round and it never STOPS. In a matter of time, what you sow you'll reap, infact in your nearest behind. Serve 'the ball' the way you want, 'cos it 'll return as SUCH. Its Boomerang! What a game, I'm so scared to play!!!

MONEY

It comes in like a slug, n goes out like an athlete. Hard to earn, but we spend it like air. Heavy at mention, so little on spending... #MONEY, BIG Title - small value Long Time to enter - In no time we scatter Lack it, u'll miss it - Have it, u'll still miss it Its paper, its polymer, but its POWER! It hits you with the force of a locomotive, and lifts you with the power of a Volcano, But leaves you with the speed of a laser and the quietness of a graveyard. Holding it down doesn't sound like the remedy, instead, making it more is what I'm preaching like already. "Make More Money!!!" A reminder that is ringing! It never gets enough, disbelief me? Check when our fathers are retiring. Easy, Not easy; 2 ways to find money really. Journeying all alone you'll go through the path; Not easy. Ofcourse only God holds the map to the land called; Easy! God help us! ᶥᵗˢ the 'WoƦdڪ♍ith'® █▀░█▀█░█░░█░░█▀█░█░█░█ █▀░█▄█░█▄░█▄░█▄█░█▄█▄█ @Olalekanakogun www.olal

NIGHT & DAY

NIGHT & DAY I sat down helpless, very unlike me, but this time I couldn’t but talk less. Dejected, it was clear, if you were there, you’ll surely smell mess. Though I moved, I looked, but I tell you, altogether, they didn’t make sense. After a while, I held my peace and looked at life, but I really couldn’t find its essence. I searched myself, wondering about me, but remembered some minutes ago, I was catching fun here. Situation Changes, Oh my God! Now I realise, Nothing stays for ages. Like the cloud moving up the sky, a major event occurs whenever it crosses the sun. When it does, for a while darkness(Night) comes upon the earth, and in a twinkle of an eye, just before you look to see what’s there, it moves and there’s day(Light) again. What a phenomenon! One which perfectly explains some happenings in the life of man. The DAY is good, but we cannot have it all Bright & Sunny. The NIGHT is good for sleep, but no matter how long we sleep, someday we’ll wake up and then we

MY KEY(Birthday Special)...Once upon a time I used to like the Cherokee, Hoping and praying to God, someday I'll hold my own Key.Used to keep it in mind but yet I layed it on a Low Key. But once I tried to get it done, borrowing a scheme from Gandoki.He used to steal,grill and kill from on the back of his Donkey.This couldn't find a place in me, kill for a key? Not me, I resent it!And then came to me the key that keys beyond keys, on which I keep my keen without fear, I mean Keenly.With this key, I key into keys, opening doors for me in life, exposing me to a life beyond me diocrity....See, we were not born with it, everyman has to find it.Its not a silver spoon, rather a key opening u through the doors of 'food' that makes your silver spoon useful.To God I owe my being, without Him I'll be a no being. But for Him, A DAY LIKE THIS will come, and like a traffic warden I'll wave it a pass like it never came since there was nothing to rejoice about.I'm yet to own a cherokee, but so glad I've placed my hands on my Cheerio-KEY.Glossary:Me, I = The Wordsmith Himself.The Key = God Almighty,Jesus, Jehovah, Allah...as you please.Gandoki = A powerful warrior and dictator of ancient times.A DAY LIKE THIS = My Birthday(4thJune).Cheerio = Joy, Happiness, Pleasure.

Don’t Sustain A Sheep Bite!(Title) ... If I hadn't known anything about the sheep prior to this event, then I would have had no reason to puzzle. If I hadn't seen a sheep physically prior to these words, then I would have no reason to marvel, wonder and ponder about the subject and what on earth would have made a sheep place its teeth upon a skin and bite.In life, we come to a point when we've cared so much, so much that we're exhausted and got no care left again in us. It is at that point that we choose to "Damn it all to hell" and the birth of the unexpected occurs.Man is just like any expansive material, he's got a breaking point, a stretch limit, and a further stretching beyond such point will birth the unexpected from such man.The birth of the unexpected sounds like a good substitute for the subject of discourse today, because when a sheep bites, the unexpected must be said to have occured.The sheep is about the meekest of all animals on the surface of the earth today. It goes about its daily affairs, simply, carefully, without a form of interference with anything or anyone. Now you see, its worth the puzzle to see or hear of a sheep bite.THE MAN WHO COMES BACK HOME TO COMPLAIN ABOUT A SHEEP BITE, MUST BE QUESTIONED, BECAUSE CERTAINLY, HE HAS OVERSTEPPED HIS BOUNDARIES.Not over stepping your boundary with anyone is the morale of today's discourse. Every man, no matter how meek, lowly, or even stupid, has got a day when his cup gets full and overflows. The mere fact that he hasn't exploded, doesn't mean that he's got no capacity to , but could only mean that his time to explode may just be one provocation away.A wise man will always have this at the back of his mind; "EVERY MAN, NO MATTER HOW OLD OR YOUNG, HAS GOT A BAD TEMPER. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MEN IS HOW LONG IT TAKES TO ACTIVATE SUCH TEMPER"."When a goat is pushed to the wall, it turns back and fights even its owner". Knowing this, it will be expedient for me to say, SUSTAINING A 'SHEEP BITE' IS THE BASIC REWARD, WHEN YOU'VE OVER DONE IT'.So, beware, think before you say the next word, do the next act, think the next thought, because it just might be the last word, act or thought required to trigger the sheep to biting you!I said earlier, and now I reiterate; "THE BOY WHO COMES BACK HOME CRYING ABOUT A SHEEP BITE MUST BE FURTHER BEATEN BECAUSE SURELY, HE MUST HAVE OVER DONE IT OUT THERE".Akogun 'Wordsmith' Olalekan (C) 2012
