If men were God


If men were God: do you think you'll have that smile that blossomed and overthrown my emotions?
Do you think you would have that brain that shine?
Do you think you can walk with those legs that sweep men off their feet without looking back and live?
Many would look for a way to make you cripple.
If men were God, would you still have the right to
Speak in this democratic world without been arrested






If men were God: this air we breath in shall be sold,
The water shall remain a resource for one politician;
Then me and you shall queue to buy before we drink.
If men were God: we shall all be bottled in one place,
Our spirits shall be caged in the zoo of their hearts.
Millions shall fall at the sound of their drums in the street; most especially you and me.




If men were God: we shall all pay as we walk like
IThe buses at island pay to pass lekki toll gate.
Before you eat in your house, you would take permission.
The politicians shall fly more and urinate on our heads as they journey to their doom in joy.
More souls shall be destroy than we see now.



If men were God and God was a man of humility,
He shall be kicked here and there because men' hearts
Are dirty, evil and filled with a foul aroma of Ego.
God shall be a slave of his own creature and men,
Ride endless with a cart that return no glory and love.



If men were God: you won't be alive to read this,
And my pen can't release its ink in the course of this.
My thoughts and your thoughts would be moudered
Throung the string of their eyes to your joyful soul.
If men were God; a mighty God like God above,
The flowers of your daily activities shall weep always.











Lend me your eyes, men are men with troubles,
They are at war against themselves without their knowledge.
The world is free but men's hearts are not free,
They lay eggs and went astray without hope.
Let your heart keep faith on the man above because
Only him can sustain you and no man can help.
