FREEBORN Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION
by `Dayo Greats, Nigeria Feb 19, 2011
Human Rights   Poetry

  

Phew!
I'm not a poet
Only I seem like a pen
When everything goes pale
The skies I paint...
With my finest words in pages

Halt it! I'm not a writer
For liberty, I write my writs;
Scream in scripts
Since I'm a silent sailor in this sphere
In a time like this,
I book my heart in my hands

You know me master!
I'm not a rebel or militant
I’ve not hidden myself
I’m a peaceful protester
Yearning for equal portions
From the land we both ploughed

I’m not a fighter!
Though I’m faired
My name is FREEBORN
I’m inspired by my freedom
Indeed, I’m not afraid
I just want to be myself:
The man and the myth

Writer Profile
`Dayo Greats


`Dayo Greats is not a writer but a simple person who draws words from his emotions and establishes his views on matters arising.

You can call it anger or expression, my intention is to spit it out once-and-for-all and halt the threats.

I wish I could be a crafty writer till the era of tyranny is ended.

Nonetheless, I won't stop writing for myself till you are found too
