Antonyms you find in
me, Kehinde Taiwo
Get it straight, not
twisted, that’s my name
An antonym you always
read
We first not to be
the last
But the last could be
the first
Many are called, few
are chosen
Early to rise, late
to bed
Fruit of thy labour, thy
sow to reap
Once a tenant, now a
landlord
Poverty we run from,
riches we work to’
Life is hard, cursed in
the former
Life is sweet,
blessed with the latter
Selflessness, the sky
nations fly to
In the spotlight, First
world
Selfishness, the ground
nations fall on
Into obscurity, Third
world
What you love you
don’t hate
But what you hate you
could love
English exams, a
failure to hate Jam’ by JAMB
But antonyms a love,
pass’ by English to you
Forward ever,
backward never
For better or worse,
our hearts locked as one
Joy, we live forever
together
Sorrow, separated
White or black,
equally created
From one source, God
Racism, a fight with
might
To be bright
Freedom of speech,
the world preach’
Pitched against
tyranny
But God’s wisdom the
Bible teaches
To the kingdom,
Reached with freedom
Written and composed by Taiwo, Kehinde Oluwaseyi
