If And If And If Poem by Tunji Ibrahim

If And If And If

Rating: 5.0


If the law is on the tongue of a liar... If power is the weakness of the strong... If reasoning is the thinking of a lunatic... If the wise depend on the wisdom of a fool... If the wound of life is the healing of death... If failure is the success of the courageous... If depression is the whispering of still waters... If trees dance nae to the coolness of endless breeze... If the tears streaming from the eyes of the heavens are rains upon the earth... If the sky is bleeding from the scorching of the sun... If conscience is the feebleness of man... If crying is the rigidness of laughter... If popular friends are hidden enemies... If love is the throes of the heart... If mind is the blindness of eyes... If night is the dawn of the devil... If light is the darkness of the world... If eating is the diabolical source of hunger... If pain is the gain of living... If the brain of man is at the palm of his hand... If his head is the walking of his legs... If mouth is for hearing, ear for smelling, and nose for speaking... If fear is the voice of the voiceless... If sadness is the joy of the soul... If sleep ceases to dictate the soundness of dream... If the teeth of man biting the flesh that covers his bones... If God is the servant of man... If and if and if...
