The Anniversary Of Nothing (Poem) (Repost)

[Chidi Anthony Opara, FIIM]

By Chidi Anthony Opara

Feminine fingers.

Fondling.

Flabby phallus.

Luscious love pod.

Her fondling failed

To fire his libido,

To flare his flabby phallus.

Her luscious love pod

Agape,

Failed

To tug him to turgidity.

Her fluid flowed,

His libido failed.

He spewed no semen

And sired no scions,

Their nuptial not consummated.

Years of connubial pretence

And conjugal duties not performed,

The celebrations of impotency,

The anniversaries of nothing.

GOD BLESS NIGERIA @ 60

Stop cursing our country

Stop hating our fatherland

Stop disliking this great nation

Nigeria is our country

Nigeria gives you citizenship

It gives you eternal identity

It defines who you are anytime

 

Nigeria is the country of Nigerians

Whatever becomes of Nigeria

Is the handiwork of Nigerians

We hate our countrymen

We live as a divided country

We misuse the opportunities Nigeria provides 

Nigeria can never be unNigerian

 

God has blessed this country

Huge land mass and fertile soil

Natural resources abound everywhere

Good climate and beautiful landscapes

Diverse cultures and rich languages

Youthful population in all regions 

People of goodwill and pure kindness

 

What else do we need as a people

That the country we curse has not provided?

Nigeria has giving us everything it has

Nigerians should fight for its soul

Save it from the venom of tribalism and bigotry

Save it from corrupt Nigerians we chose to protect

Believe in the country that God made you

God Bless Nigeria at sixty.
