On Amazon – My First Poetry Collection

Image
  Have You Read My Poetry Collection Birds See Things? If you’ve been following my work for a while, chances are you’ve come across my poetry collection, Birds See Things , which is available on Amazon. This collection has quietly made its way into the hearts of readers who love thoughtful, layered, and emotionally rich poetry. And if you haven’t read it yet, consider this your invitation to explore the journey within its pages. What’s Inside? Part One contains 36 poems that touch on life, lifestyle, loss, survival, nature, and satire. These poems are not just words strung together, but expressions of everyday struggles, philosophical musings, and social observations. In “Guile,” I explore the deceptive charm some wear like perfume, while “A Penny for the Gallows” questions society’s tendency to punish the poor and excuse the powerful. “Birds See Things” , the title poem, takes the perspective of an observant bird and reveals the ugliness and irony in human behaviour.

An Awful Past _ _ ♯shortstory

Image
Alade took his eyes off the journal just as two fierce-looking men barged into his room. He squirmed in his seat under their piercing gazes. He didn’t need a soothsayer to tell him something was wrong. He opened his mouth to speak, but his lips only quivered. One of the men yanked him to his feet. The journal slipped from his grasp and hit the floor. Alade winced as the man’s fingernail dug into his flesh. The grip was too tight. He struggled to break free. “Let me go! Who are you?!” he screamed in fright. The other man silenced him with a hard slap. “If that won’t shut you up, maybe this will,” he said, revealing a pistol. Alade froze in fear. In that instant, he resolved to stop resisting. He let them drag him out and bundle him into the taxi they came with. The driver started the car, and they drove off. The reckless driver pulled up in front of an uncompleted building on the outskirts of a light forest. The two men in the backseat got down, yanked Alade out, and led him inside...

Olaide _ _ ♯shortstory

Image
  (Part 1) Laide was baffled. She had trudged all the way to the spot where she and Irede had agreed to meet—Oke Ajuwon, the place they visited just two weeks ago—but there was no sign of him. No footprints. No familiar scent. Nothing. She dropped her heavy bags and heaved a deep sigh. Her limbs ached, her spirit more so. She looked around desperately, but there was no trace of his arrival. Slowly, she sank onto her bags and began to fondle her twisted pigtails, her heart thudding painfully beneath her chest. Laide wasn’t just beautiful—she was radiant, a young woman filled with grace and quiet strength. But now, tears streamed down her striking face as the events of the past three days flooded her memory. Her father, Biyi, was a revered hunter and warlord—known for his courage and unwavering loyalty to his land. But three days ago, a gut-wrenching message reached Yayegbe: their warriors had been defeated in battle. And Laide knew what that meant. There were only two possibili...
