What strikes our innocence as we grow The society or our dogmatic refusal to change? Curiosity has killed our cats Viciously leaving their carcasses to our foes  Seen a lot of maze stuck fellows Running the cycle of hates and hallows Buried in the dug of insecurities  Thinking everyone is their enemy  Selfishness to self incurred  Damaging the very core of their existence  Culture leaving them ravaged in poverty Abuse never leave their polity  Greed soliciting their deprived minds So many never bother to fight back Accepting the hospitality of an enemy  Sleeping with a stranger -Ayo Obi  #society #obismiles

You steal from your future by the negligence of today Priding yourself with your ill-gotten wealth Deluded by the composite companionship with fools Who bewitched you? Greed or pride? Why are you foolish? Who says hard work brings no gain? Or labor doesn’t produce fruits? The lazy look for quick fixes Thinking tomorrow is a decade away  And the day after a century  Make hay while the time is right -Ayo Obi #obismiles #Prejudice #poetry #lagos
