Posi-Negative Poem by Adebayo Caleb

Posi-Negative

Rating: 5.0


I am not an advocate of hedonism nor do I denounce austerity.I do not dislike good nor do I hate evil; cause they bring out who you are, either strong or weak.I do not praise youth, for it makes mistakes neither do I decry good age, for it gives hope.I love wisdom, for it is the basis neither do I crucify understanding, for it shows experience. Never will I criticize boldness, cause it brings respect, not again will I despise cowardice, for we are all human. Never will I praise devil, but he teaches lesson, God, I will always exalt, for I am alive. I do not detest the day, cause it gives opportunity of working yourself to greatness, nor do I hate the night, for then, we gather our strength.

I am not a feminist, for there must be a King yet I do not depise the women, cause we must have babies. Do not starve yourself to death neither should you over-feast. Poverty is not a good friend but you should learn a lot from him; wealth is not an enemy, however.let charity teach you. Crown is good, let mercy prevail. Subjects! Let patriotism rule your hearts.Looking up is fair, so also looking down, for no one knows tomorrow.Looking back is good, the recent is pleasant but experience is the greatest.I like light cause it makes bright; I do not denounce darkness, for it precedes new era.Praise without hyprocracy, never detest with devotion. Talk do not pry; be mute, nevertheless make friends.Challenges are good; through all you are made strond.
