A sunny harvest( OlagunjuvOlayemi Josh)


Harvest in the sun
Basket are dancing on the head of big children,
The vegetation and the deadlock
The fear of the season and the razing in sun,
Big children with bigger laughing mouth,
With hoes and cutlass
Ready to damage the fucking crops.

Their heart are strong,
And their face are bitter.

This is a tournament between good and evil,
All individual within this state,
Putting on the helmet of war,
Ready to damage the fucking crops.

Their hands are wild,
And their face smoke weeds.

They set their feet upon the bottomless pit of the world.
New born babies on the horizon,
Shattered heart and grievance,
No telephone call, no techno-or-logic.
Men with grown hair
And wild bones,
Ready to damage the fucking crops.

The booted men high their moral,
While the aged drum the native drum,
And woman with naked heart dancing.
Innocent souls weeping a salty water,
Their heart are broken like glass into pieces,
And their tongue taste the world.

Enough harvested crop that the mouth could manage,
Dancing children and the weeping basket,
Coughing hoes and the sneezing cutlass,
Big children with empty palm heaping along the road,
The beggars blindness sees,
The crippled leg walked.

Even the dead descended,
The glory of the stars and beauty of the nights.
Joy in the faces of newly born knight.

Happiness filled up the atmosphere,
As grain flows like river,
Sands like stones,
Water like blood.

Peace is what sweetened sugar,
War is what bittered bitterleaf

I promised to raise my hand amidst the cloud, I promised to blink my eyes out of every shadow of fears, Once I noticed it was you, I have seen the light,  Don't be surprised if I mentioned your name and I know the line on your face So, I may call you by your tribe. I surely know the color of your eyes. But till then, Stay wherever you are and be with me, keep yourself just the same way am keeping myself for you. For I'm still waiting, Waiting for the queen that will sit beside me forever, till death do us...  Waiting for the bone..... and flesh of my flesh Waiting to see we two as one My dear I have kept myself safe in His arm, Cus I know the Earth is not safe for the heart, Though, some years back I was a captive of a large audience, but n

Just to say thank you
