BALANCISM From morning till evening, Always, exists a sign of being blind. From yesterday to tomorrow, There will always be a sign to arrow. Yeah, to put our antagonists to sorrow As the air blows without hate, It disburses timely breathe with good fate No one complains for the air given; Even, when they dilute it with the forbidden. Just as the sun in daylight It shines to bring all things bright Foods grow without complaints Even, when the sun is not eulogized with paints Like the moon and stars At night, everyone shines beyond the bars With the cool breeze, Everyone rests not to freeze Like the water rushing from the valley None is seen to come in Demi They rush without pay to fetch its infants Who cares for the sources if not biting as ants? Like God, the Almighty ! Everyone believes to be mighty. He that creates Male and Female Many still see Him as weight, Whenever He brings a plus or minus. Well, the balancist, I am! My theory is balancism! No...

Days and nights, sleepless over how one succeeds For success, I always plant seeds. At times, My dreams are not pleasing Who cares? Am I meant to satisfying. If one always think of satisfying human being One will surely blame his being. I salute the God of knowledge; for letting it shower in our world Hmm... How will it be with the existence of only witlessness in this world. Things would have gotten bad to worst, Without knowledge, all seems in Horst.

Some are amazed for the respects I exercise While some feel themselves;don't forget my seeds are in enterprise! The door of my heart is clearly open It needs an angel to get  it sharpen. I need a lass who never fears of losing The one designed for my purposing. ...

This is an exclusive thoughts of someone, Mr Jubril Ayoola who is a learning scholar in  Nigeria, concerning the then colonial master's and the ruled. Thus it emphasizes: One of first few questions I asked myself when I started to rationalize is "Why Was I Born in this Nation", "Why am I not white". I started to relate with my childhood friends and schoolmates at a very tender age only to realize I am not the only one with that mentality. Later when I was around age 10, when I started attending Luth CMUL staff school I accepted the fact that I am black not because I willing wanted to but because I realized again that I have no choice but to accept that reality. Relating with my friends made me discover how much so many of them kept denying themselves attribution to our nationality or continent as whole. We're still young but we have this mentality, acceptance or denying, our inert feelings wish we were not of this nation. We feel this way not because w...
