slowly unveiled her smiling eyes again.<br /><br />The priest quietly acknowledged her entry<br />And wittily followed her from the corner of his eye<br />Stampeded over a few verses, and recomposed himself again.<br /><br />The hapless believer that neighbored her fidgeted<br />Quickly dropped an eye at her exposed thighs<br />And hastily blinked away.<br /><br />And as I caught ten or more

wares<br />Making some stand up facing the road, some sideways<br />And others in shelves- dusted off and re-varnished.<br /><br />He stared vacantly far away, then pensively at the coffins.<br />A sample casket with artistic design on display<br />With a peeping glass strategically at eye-level<br />For the dead to take a roll call of the living.<br /><br />For over a week now he has waited and waited<br />But not a single client has shown up.<br />A pick-up truck parked in front of his stall<br />And he jumped up with expectation…<br />But the driver swung his keys and hummed a tune<br

cruising with passengers<br />He hated the fat pharmacist reclining in his verandah<br />He hated the white-coated doctors flitting from university to hospital<br />He hated the pairs of lovers romancing in the independence square<br />He hated the noisy children playing from school…<br /><br />And, as he remembered his own children at home<br />Chased away two weeks ago for lack of school fees<br />He bowed his head and pleaded to God for a few

another<br />This entails sharing and caring<br />However, love is sometimes misinterpreted<br />By the something for something notion<br /><br />Many youths have become victims of beauty<br />They are the easiest targets by the so-called tycoons<br />Who think young ladies are yearning for the latest trends<br />Some have been plotted against<br />After failing to fall prey of some men’s selfish advances<br /><br />Beauty is a gift from God<br />That He endowed us without any price tags<br />Unfortunately, we have diluted it<br />Through; bleaching, prostitution...<br />Shall we
