A Piece of Hell

With a combination of howl and groan, he roared like a wounded lion. His cry was loud but all ears were deaf to it. Butt-naked, his penis half-dangled with blood dripping all over it. His balls weren’t spared either, and the sight reminds me of spoilt tomatoes. Even before he was lit, the air had […]

A Day At The Salon

I have heard it all. Tales of going to Dubai, the one that’s in the corner of their rooms. Gists of the party they last went. Stories of their neighbors who are never of good character. The talk of the drunk husband and battered wife.They always share sad stories, stifling their necks and still finding […]

Letter To My Ex’s Girlfriend.

Dear Adú- máa- dán, The chosen one I want to call you, Ẹlẹ́sẹ̀ oṣùn But the aisle you haven’t walked I don’t know you my name you must have heard I am Egbin Beauty and brain built a mansion in me Calm as the sea The Àdàbà is envious of me I beget purity Lékélèké […]

The Makeshift Tent.

It is a sunny afternoon in Ilowa. Everyone in town is happy. Everywhere is bustling with people dancing around. Chants and songs of praise fill the air. The sight of horses on the street is a symbol of a good thing. Bukuowo, the son of the soil is in town. Bukuowo! The son of Olu. […]

Mango and Coke

‘She was sleeping in pink, transparent lingerie. I wanted to wake her to run errands for me. She looked like her mother at that moment. So I could not resist touching her. I didn’t do much. You can check. Please, I didn’t cum inside her. She is my daughter. I’m sure she knows it’s the […]

In My Mind’s Mansion

At last, the jinx was broken. Everyone always asked how I managed never to break a sweat no matter how hot the weather was. Not that they cared, not that they were worried, just that they wanted my skin routine ; that was all that mattered. I have a skin specially made for the sun. […]

The Broken Tale

The Broken Tale Today, let’s gather under the àràbà Not for the tricker tales Nor for the secret tales of the ghost land It isn’t time for the tall tattle of tortoise Send message to Oníbàtá Today,there would be no dance Only words from the hurt Message for the wise I bind the color Let […]

Smile That Drains

Smile That Drains Darkness latched on my soul Emptiness slithered through my mind Raging fire in my innards My breasts treambled The tempest so keen Body daunted with unliveliness A purge of emotions The surge of sadness Open the floodgate Allow the tide of tears Mud the eyes with cries Until the sky of heart […]

How Hard is it to say I’m Sorry

‘Blinded by my perfection Choked on my rightfulness My plead will please her But I wouldn’t say it In a flicker She slipped away Never to return again Because I couldn’t say it Eight characters I hate Two words too burdensome Difficult as the Greek puzzle— I’m sorry The rehabilitative power of the clause ‘I’m […]
