Poetry

August 31, 2016 Booky Glover Oyindamola

My brain comes alive

Emblazoned with fire

My soul is enlarged

Bursting with greatness

—

My breast is full

Aching with pain

My heart breaks

Mother Earth painted in red.

The post I read from Inkbiotic inspires this poetry.

Wow! If someone told me this, there is no way my heart wouldn´t break for them! So emotional.

  I’m glad you think so. When you are in a country whose environment is crippling, a country that has the war threat over its head, then you can’t help it. Great minds are dying here, getting wasted… I don’t blame the Nigerians starting away from their father land.
