Sharpening My Spear
I am set to follow the storm.
The kingmakers have gone fetish.
I have a charm maker too
but he says an incision of two hundred will do.
He said ;
Two hundred fowls to appease Ogun
Two hundred kegs of fresh palmwine for Obatala.
Two hundred tubers of yam for Esu.
and A token of two hundred naira for him.
.
I ask within my mind,
has the deities suddenly grow fiery tooth?
I begin to wonder if the great Diviner is planning a big feast for
spirits unseen.
.
Well,
I have paid my dues
and all that remains to be done is to donne my armor and
enchant war songs.
My enemies have gone unlucky.
Yes!
After this sojourn ,
am all but done.
