Elevated thoughts

Masidat 2008 (Lagos)



Imagine if there was nothing to be
Imagine if it was only you and me
What shall history be
Where shall mystery began

What art and craft will rein
When exactly will it rain
Imagine of what sort you shall be named
Of what thought will be game

Of what sister shall mister
Of what tears shall we fear
Oh Imagine what stories shall be maimed
Oh nothing will ever be the same

About this poem

Elevated thoughts is my expression of my quest to understand this world. It's histories mystery, and my personal world
