Poetic Thoughts

[Chidi Anthony Opara]

Colloquium cants,

Second term secured.

Evidences of corruption

Surface,

The peacock goes to prison.

The plumage

Of the peacock

Plucked.

"April fools day"?

Rename it

"Naija fools day"!

They live here,

They listen to emptiness.

The fools, 

They vote here!

[Chidi Anthony Opara]

We are

The new creators.

The creator stopped creating

Long time ago.

The work of creation

Is delegated to us

The new creators.

[Chidi Anthony Opara]

The war raged,

Winnie warred,

We hailed.

The war was won,

Winnie lost

But became a heroine.

Death came,

Winnie

Left with grace.

Grateful world

Greets!

[Emeagwali, Gloria (History)]

Our poet laureate has spoken.

Thank you.

Professor Gloria Emeagwali

Can the Creator ever stop

creating? Can the dog ever stop

barking? Or the cock crowing?

The Universe is new

everyday...

and we are only trying

to keep up with that

Divine Creativity

that alone stimulates our

own creative wondering. 

The Creator creates

through us.
