They fight seriously

Why? Look here, ground-nuts and beans!

Fighting for nothing

Is like falling into grounds

Full of herbivoric pests

As a leaf, I probed

Beans claim superiority

For being flower-borns

As ground-nuts claim bosshood for

Being root borns, how trivial!

III

You silly fighting beans,

Don’t you know you depend on roots

To flourish? And you

Silly ground-nuts, who sees you

Until your murder moments?

In a situation

Where you both hide in clothes,

Does it make sense that you fight?

Know you also share some complexions

Aren’t some of you white and others red?

Until your brains tire,

By all means pump your fire

And fight to the finish,

Forgetting the nutrients you both possess

Which many yearn to live well

You also mostly end up together; in pots

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. :)
