He’s a lovely handsome man,
Gentle of soul and good in spirit,
His memories in me cannot leave,
Your deeds of kindness; to me, cleave,
Sir Sam Adewole Olofinnika was there every minute,
This pa Sam; to me, is a rare human!
Pa Sam, he helped me as I grow,
Gave me as much as he got from his labour,
And even [...]

I feel so lonely
and lost some of my heart
my dads abandoned me
my worlds falling apart
I have no oxygen
can’t live another day
I’ve tried so hard to fight it
but it just won’t go away
He hurt me terribly
he’s always in my head
I try and think of other things while lying in my bed
The clock keeps tickin by
but I’m [...]

I saw Dad’s Face
In your face
Last weekend
In your yard
I at the ready
To lend a hand
To be his helper again
Through you, my brother
To be close to
Him and you

For thirty years, poor and white,
Barely daring to breathe or Achoo.
Daddy, I have had to kill you.
You died before I had time —-
Marble-heavy, a bag full of God,
Ghastly statue with one gray toe
Big as a Frisco seal
And a [...]

Why art thou silent & invisible
Father of jealousy
Why dost thou hide thyself in clouds
From every searching Eye
Why darkness & obscurity
In all thy words & laws
That none dare eat the fruit but from
The wily serpents jaws
Or is it because Secresy
gains females loud applause
