Tomorrow I would buy a balloon

Fill it with all my heartaches, nerve-aches and headaches

Then go to an open field to release it

Then watch my pains float away in the wind.

Maybe I should wait for the rain.

Heavy downpours that become floods

Then dump my pains into the rushing floods

Oh, how satisfying it would be to watch them float away.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

No, I will become an eagle

I would fly high into the summer sun

And as I get closer to the sun

Its heat would melt away all my troubles and I would be free.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hmm, how about making a great fire

Then sneaking upon it from behind

Quickly dumping my inconveniences into it

As it burns, I will sit back to eat boli and dried fish washed down with chilled Zobo.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Suddenly, I hia gboa, my bed fall me for ground yakata for middle of night

D fall shock me, wound me for my back join

Me wey I been dey dream of how I go clear my life wahala

Dem no dey rest?- Which kain winch be dis one again nau?

Senior man, na Naija you dey. Na to hold God with ya ten fingers and ten toes o. Na so we being dey take survive for here o.

SELAH.

To read another tori, waka follow this way Mumu man wey dey beat woman

Oya, reason am with me for comments section. How man go fit solve im problem for dis our kontiri? Me, na God I put eye o. Na dia my hellep dey land from.

Na your Ogbonge boy, Travelling Poet Dey hail una from dis side.

UNA do o.
