DEEPER LIFE

Fawass Olalekan Adelabu 2001 (Osun)

Free verse
DEEPER LIFER

Deeper life she attends
Yet her life is not deep
Since the holes is subtler than her existence.
And her counts- upholds her age

Hoe-low-show!
They say he is
Since his organism springs beyond pig
And he taps currents wherever he goes

When an hoe encounters an hole
It becomes merciful to make a mole
Omo-Alaso wears akisa
To showcase her nudity to Baba Sodiki

Omo oniru smells  a good scent,
Yet  her home is a blot

About this poem

The poem navigates from a religious point of view of the one who we think are deep in religion are the one who are worst, yet they should not be blamed since our society filled with insensitive male gender who do not think before doing something. The poem makes use of metaphor and satire to justify his point of the poem being a contemporary one cuz it shows what is really happening in the society at the moment.
