This year go pap
Everyone must be a proud groom to
this New Year the bride
Leave no stone unturned; spill no
semen for her belly must protrude with our individual ideas and give birth to
our desires
I am bent on impregnating…This
year’s womb is very receptive… I am coming hard, no contraceptives…
I will continue to speak straight
just like my sexuality
I won’t relent on speaking street the
language of the subjugated also I speak elite; the language of the privileged
majority
There is unity in this plurality
Just like my Lord and King knowing
the language of babies and oldies
I speak faith, Faith is my lingua
Check my early tweet this year
I said this year go pap, I go fit
swear
God is my helper
I am no puppy or a grown dog
A crab will never give birth to a
bird; Ghanaian adage
Check my bloodline and know why I roar and
don’t hiss; I’m a lion…
Did I hear you
say there is a Goliath hiding somewhere in every fresh year...?
Araba stamp;
"I don’t fear huu";
I have my slingshot and my five polished stones... call me David a.k.a "Stonebwoy"
Nickname each
of my stones raven,
it flies straight to the foreheads of unwanted giants...
This year we reigning
Those of you who know me know
that Laud de poet is realer
This year I am going to get drunk,
yes get drunk on success not amarulla
Life’s tough experiences shouldn’t kill
anyone, for me tough skin is what I have developed multiples plies of that of
an alligator
Gutter to gutter, I remember those
days when friends used chase baela,
For me it was gold fish, the
adjective of the noun has always been the ish;
I have always desired the street
of heaven
God is good now I am grown, never relenting on
having the legal tender
Philanthropist in the making,
when
people like Mannie negotiate better and Quallo makes my wallet fatter,
why won’t
this New Year be one pregnant with great aspirations
THIS YEAR
GO PAP, THIS YEAR GO PAP, THIS YEAR GO PAP
Reminder, we are all connected in one
way or the other
I said it before everyone’s existence
is based on the existence of another
I am a man I’m black and proud and
from above I’ve been gifted,
and my gift will make way for me; Holy
Scriptures
My every move is towards the
fulfillment of prophecy,
Quod scriptum est; what is written is
written
Que sera sera; what will be will be
Blisters to scars, well I call them
monumental landmarks to help us remember the past
Making things that are rare, common;
like spoken word; now it’s all over your face
With the mind of Christ, I can only speak
more of the wisdom of the old man upstairs
Down beneath he stares I pray that in
his direction your heart will be stirred… in fact our hearts will be stirred.
This world is like a stage drama, no
one is an audience everyone is part of the cast
And until we see the relevance of
everyone we will think that some people are outcasts
I am out there not based on my swag;
One: but the wisdom that flows from
my mouth and drips from the tip of my tongue; done.
I have my role that I am playing;
Spoken word poet blessed with oratorical brilliance mine is to speak
Politicians who have been voted into
power yours is to work
Make our queuing and our fingers
indelibly inked for hours worthwhile
They say no one is indispensable but
trust me every existence is significant
Discover yours and see your relevance ….
Not just in this year but in many
more years to come
Know the language of the street and
the elite; be bilingual
Speak faith for that is the language
of the divine
This year is a bride and everyone
must be a proud groom
Leave no stone unturned; spill no
semen then will her belly protrude with our individual ideas and give birth to
our desires
From the beginning of the poem I was
foretelling
I have ended call the above
prophetic.
Now role credits.
THIS YEAR
GO PAP, THIS YEAR GO PAP, THIS YEAR GO PAP
