HAIRSTYLE AND IT'S INFLUENCE

Image
"Why should I spend so much on hairdo, wearing expensive and artificial hair,  when I can rock my Natural or traditional hair without giving people different views of my status? It happens that I felt I needed a new look and some fresh air, so I decided to look natural; I went to the salon and asked my stylist to make a simple hairdo just with my  natural hair. She was confused at first and asked if all was well and I assured her that all is well. The look on her face shows she wasn't satisfied with my answer. After she was done with the hair, I was so pleased that I felt I was two years younger. Few days later, I met a younger family friend of mine, we exchange pleasantries; she went through her phone asking me to help her pick an hairstyle, because she doesn't know what type of hair to wear to the party she will be attending soon; after checking she demanded she sees my hairstyle to decide if she can do the same. Actually I was putting on a face cap,  so I uncovere

Welcome to the SBM hostel, He was quick to make friends, They said to him, If you want to be part of us,you must do what we do He was timid because he was the mummy's boy. Felix says he should try it because there's no harm trying Ben says it's called highness Mike says it's sweet and good for the weak. It was strange at first, but he's now on top in the game.

In his third year, he became crazy and now lazy The school management couldn't cope with his lifestyle and condition. he was rusticated in the process His demand became much, bu

POETRY : A MYSTERY OR MISERY ?

Morality is relative, so does its consequences remain  too, in every deeds and misdeeds of  man, in survival,  in poetry, but we must do something - as equal as not doing anything. I am a poet  but sometimes, I just wished I am a bird - one that knows not what it is doing but is of certainty to something  significant - survival, in a life seeming like a vacuum for something is either missing to complete life itself. If life is not complete,  then poetry - in an abyss. There is nothing as good poetry, poetry is poetry - for there is nothing as the best. I lay by the rotten carrion of  vultures - wanting to know, what poetry is  from the underworld, wanting to know  if there are poets in Hades or poetry is the fine tuned melody for men on paradisal fountain. The look I got was bloody,  blank.  bloody,  but it tells a story of who a poet is. A poet lives in foesdom, an open mind  will call it fatality but no !  It is reality.. Poetry is real,  foesdom is r

FOR LOVE

What was my mistake? I wonder till date, What is the language of love? Do I have to speak in tongue? Yet you say you need a prove, You make me look like a fool, If it's a crime to love you, I'm ready to go to jail. I derive my joy in you every night and day.

A BLESSING OR CURSE

There are some mystical believe about tribal marks;in Nigeria, tribal marks are scarification which are specific identification and beautification mark designed on the face or body of Nigerians especially the Yoruba and Hausa  people. The tribal marks are mainly part of the Yoruba culture and are usually inscribed on the body by cutting of the skin during childhood. The primary reason for the tribal mark is for identification of a person's tribe, family or patrilineal heritage. Other reasons for the mark are symbols of beauty and creativity. There are also believes that tribal marks or marks is a way of keeping mischievous children alive (Ila Abiku) I guess that is where I belong.        My name is Deola Adesoji, a graduate of a prominent University.
