UNTITLED POEMS BY DARAH

Phobia…

If he is scared, they say he's weak

Peril…

If he goes for it, they say he's stupid

There's a fine line between valor and idiocy

But who decides this; man?

Absolutely not

What if risking it is due to fear

A man fears mockery, hence he urged on

But he's confronted with insecurities

He decided; he'd rather be in insecurities than be mocked

He then succeeds in insecurities

So, he's called brave

Man has forgotten that once he's stripped off his acquisitions

He would stand no more

His crown will forever bow

He wouldn’t be able to fight his phobia

A man once secured, a man who thrived in the toughest times

He goes into rage, he breaks down; 

He falls into blankness

Society says 'the brave and mighty has fallen'

Or better still, they say he derailed

Though, he was never brave; he wasn’t mighty

He finally met his phobia

Because if there is no JOB, you can create jobs! Find your talent, hone it and start cashing in on it. And that is one thing I like about this artiste. Track after track, I see growth after growth. Don't wait till he explodes before you support him. We have to join him on his journey and help make him a better artiste. He is also from Taadi so you know right? Taadi y3 w) adze a oye! You can get to listen to the track  here . Make sure to follow him on twitter he re . And this  wil

The murder cabinet-1

THE MURDER CABINET Rony Brown Episode one-Who killed Freda? I always hate it when they put me on such cases. It reminds me of my empty apartment, the right side of my bed that is always cold in the morning and opportunities I let pass me by. Then again the Detective Chief Superintendent doesn’t like me much. And anything that could cause me the slightest misery is her greatest pleasure. But this case was the last straw! And I am definitely not going to be the camel whose back broke. I always take the tough criminal cases. But this… She can only be at most eighteen. She lies naked in a pool of blood; her own blood. She has one dried up tear staining her cheek. Despite the gory nature of the crime scene, her face is not carved into a look of horror. She looks like one who died peacefully in a dreamy sleep. I suddenly feel sick in my stomach. Strange; crime scenes do not usually rattle me. Argh, I hate campus murders! Although they are rare, they always take longest to
