"THE THING BETWEEN YOUR LEGS"



The pestle between your legs,

The mortar between your legs,

What is your excuse?

That it is always charged by nature?

And it does not have a turn-off switch?

It is a pestle not a pistol,

 Yet,  just this yesterday, just this tomorrow you pulled your zip and shot a woman's dream,

You are a killer,

A killer of dreams,

A killer of virginity,

A killer of pride,

A killer of bliss,

It is mortar not murder,

Yet, How many pestles have you crushed? How many destinies?

For being the sister of Jezebel,

Did it earn you a crown?

just to prove you are a descendant of eve?

The key between your legs,

The door between your legs,

You plug the key into the door,

You treat your temples like a shrine,

Does it come with a trophy?

No?

But It comes with a seed,later blamed or named after a mistake,

A mistake?

Can a pestle pound a mortar while asleep?

Can a key open a door unconscious?

Oh!  Was it sleep walking?

Shall we then blame it on creation?

That we now learn from animals we breed,

Acting rape scenes like a hen and the cock,

And still wonder why our prayers hang in the roof?

The spoon between your legs,

The pot between your legs....

You tasted the soup too soon And  too often,

You became obsessed with variety,

Do you blame it on Adam?

Or Eve? Because her pot of soup is no longer worth a proper cover? Temptation?

Your appetite is now a road map to abortion homes and healing pills......

....EXCERPT....

The origin of African Drama and Theatre with Salient Elements from Selected Plays by Olaniyi Abdulwaheed

African drama and theatre started to emerge in Africa continent when British came to make their affairs of life imposed on Africans. They came with ideas; religion, education, business transaction, making Africa a raw material place where their solid land was built up by it. Through this, African lifestyle changed and wore another garment because of the predicament at the advent of British. Though Africans had their normal dramatization (in form of folklore), their experiences for the coming of British always feature in the African drama and theatre that was inherited from Europeans. The origin of African drama and theatre based on traditional, history, and contemporary dramatic forms in Africa which range from sacred or ritual performances to dramatized storytelling, literary drama, or modern fusion of scripted theatre with traditional performance techniques. The diversity in performances is as a result of massive spread of cultures and traditions in each country. A lot of t

A REVIEW OF DENJA ABDULLAH’S PLAY DEATH AND THE KING’S GREY HAIR - By Olaniyi Abdulwaheed

Image
In every society, there must be a leader. A leader who is ready to refurbish the land, lead by example and abides by the laws of the society. A leader who is respected by his subjects is the one that serves the nation relentlessly and bends for the rule of law. The law of every society defines its power, culture and tradition. The uniqueness of a tradition in a particular nation is reserved in the constitution and how the people of the state respect the rule of law. When the power of a nation is given to a particular person to maintain orderliness, peace and harmony reigns if the ruler or king obeys political culture. Leaders must lead by example lest things fall apart. The play Death and the King’s Grey Hair centres around the ancestral culture of the people of Shakaga village. According to their unwritten constitution , a king rules for a short period of time, it is a taboo for him to live with signs of ageing,.The village only witnesses young kings and short reigns. The law

Is the English Language a Curse or Blessing to Nigeria? by Olaniyi Abdulwaheed

Image
English the language of the colonial masters in Nigeria. Colonial masters bequeathed English to Nigeria as part of the ways of making Nigerians adopt their culture. Since language is part of the culture and culture is part of the language, Nigerians overwhelmingly adopted British culture and viewed it as the best gaze in the mirror. The prestige attached to British culture cannot be confiscated in English, the British language. However, many scholars with different opinions have argued on the existence of the English Language, whether it is a curse or blessing for the country. Some argued that, embracing English language is a curse to Nigeria, whereas some believe that it a force of blessing for the nation.  The growth of the English language in Nigeria can be traced to the heterogeneous nature of Nigerian society. Nigeria is a country with many languages with at least of about 400 languages. Most of these languages are not mutually intelligible, that is, speakers of one langua
