Book 2 : The Beauytful Ones Are Not Yet Born by Ayi Kwei Armah

Book 2 : Ayi Kwei Armah

Good Ones

Right there

Much like that

So enticing

Change is not needed

Just flow like always

Slow, slow

Right there

Keep calling

Till you reach me

A place where we can forget

Only till forever shall we remain

So, for now

Just keep it slow

No Agreement

Finally, they all wanted to taste that bad magic
Sprinkled with some western dew
A formula for the envy
Hunger gave birth to a beast
A smoke screen of empty lies
You willingly throw pain at us
Yet, you refuse to answer to your own name

Gone Naija Gone

I once saw the eagle

High above

Swimming in a stream of pride

A clear path to home

“Tell me why you missed the door?” the eagle asked..

“The green forest rests just ahead.”
