ROADSIDE FLOWERS
And these roadside flowers

 Who planted them?

 How many people do you think they have seen?

 How many times have they been stepped on?

 Which types of shoes did you say they know?

 If they loved you dear roadside flowers

 The water in their bottles you could drink

 Not choke from their plastic sweet wraps or the toxic gas from their autos

 Please lend me your resilience

  OPINION In a world of free things nothing is free have you ever thought to yourself? And now since everything has a price tag how worthy is your opinion in the modern world then? Man is an animal, a social creature de facto, but what is it that makes him see his own independent value noble from the rest of his race? Could we assume that stratification is some normal order of the universe we live in? It’s not only among man that exists ranks but in the whole of the animal kingdom from bees, mites to even lions with each set of class or rank performing a specific role or task in most cases. In business terms we may term it as specialization. As far as history can take us through books we get to learn of the partisan nature of man and his organization ethnographically.   At no point have we ever seen man rely on his self solely. He hunted in groups and lived in caves as family. It is this group politics (affair) that has led to development of society and advancement of soci...

  A WALK INTO TIME, A JOURNEY THROUGH TIME.   It’s 2021 and I am going through a thought in time but I don’t know how long it has been or how old it is the moment I’m reviewing this. Were it wine it would have grown richer in taste, darker in tone and would now be able to raise the taste buds by sheer anticipation at the mention of the name. If it were Italian gorgonzola or swiss cheese the bucks would’ve gone up steadily. Sometime back a couple of months or years ago if I am not wrong didn’t know then that I know now. A thought flashed through my mind and I thought it could be brilliant idea that could make a TED talk (I rarely listen or watch them because of reasons best known to me). It was about time. The thought slipped into the blues but till today about now it still lingers in my subconscious mind as it has come to prove. I hold curious views about the subject matter for very complex reason that I cannot be able to substantiate physically. I don’t know how I may v...

POLITICS & SHIFTING ECONOMIES We’re in deep shit.. Who’s in control? Are we in uncharted waters? What’s next Alkebulan? Tragedy of Africa by Fitemba would sum up this in about six minutes. Seven decades after the white man left our soil it seems we are clueless about our priorities as people’s of the great continent. The psychological conditioning inflicted on our peoples might take another tens of decades to fully melt into thin airs but will it really melt into thin airs while it’s still large in print? It certainly is time for change and the pulse is getting stronger by every sunset. It’s not the time for civil wars, neither tribal or racial divisions nor religious stigmatization. It’s time for a cause, a  noble one for self and nation. The world is in a turmoil thanks to: “climate change”, Kim, Zelensky, Biden, Macron, Hezbollah, Hamas, Kiir, Netanyahu,  M-23, NATO, IMF, WEF, ISIS, AL SHABAAB etc. It’s a super mega meltdown of strife every where from Africa to Asia, E...
