BLACKMAILED

Fingers in between his teeth

He stirs like a python

Making me dizzy

Taunting me to stir

So I can have the sole blame

For losing them

But I am still

Fingers in between his teeth

Hitting his pate is an abomination

Not for him, for me

Because his stomach will receive

What I need for a life time use

So he careless sports for fights

Fights begging for a justification for eating my treasure

Now I am in a dilemma

Do I live like a fingerless free man

Or live forever blackmailed

By this python?

I know his taunts can wheel me

Into the grave before my real time

Poor old cowardly me!

Just a simple Ghanaian trying to find the best in our society. I may be fun, I may be interesting, I may be funny, I may even be foolish or intelligent, but it is all based on the mood in which you find yourself. I believe our minds make us who we are. Know that, pain, no matter its 'unbearability', is transient. Unburden or delight yourself for a while in my writings please. And all corrections, advice and opinions are welcome. Know that you are the king, queen or royal on this blog. :)
