I
If you know not the taker
Please give me your ears
Listen and listen through
And see its feet
II
Like sleep
It takes to control
Like wood
It climbs till it’s bored
III
Like God
It darkens in sleep
Like God
It lightens in sleep
IV
No shoes
No eye can see, no ears can hear
No being
No air can bluff
V
So work
As you’re awake
And love
As it rehearses on you daily
VI
For when it is time
It takes with no bell
Then, you’ll have
No mouth to complain nor curse

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. :)
