THE FORTUNE
Where the creeks enter the sea
Olokun filled me a boat to keep.
It was left for me to take home
without crying for more help
through pirates betting their lives
on unescorted cargoes passing-
robbers keep mirrors in closets
to foresee the fortune of others.
I steered upstream as I must;
the boat mine to take home
but it was too large and loaded
for the creeks that took me home-
the fingers of the Niger did not
always reach everywhere nearby .
At the last deep water station,
destitute hands waited to off-load
the cargo and be head carries
for the rest of the shallow way.
No road for boats to my home,
Only logs floated there n floods-
the sky turned off its sprinklers
and rafters sat at home , waiting .
Among my helpers pilfering ones
that I can't convert into clean souls.
My home is large but loaded
though Olokun filled me a boat.
Thank you for reading my " THE FORTUNE"
