Painted lips of art
Washing the feet of creativity,
Creates fruitful words
From the fountain of life
Giving you the strong bone of life,
To strengthen the bones you already have.
Bestowed on you the milk of divinity, to give you the much calcium you need.
Words are fresh like a fresh egg
And bitter like bitter leaf.
Words burn the tongue of sadist like Cameroon pepper dealt with humans' private parts.
Words are edible;
Like palm oil,
They paint oil on people's face.
Like groundnut,
They are hard nut
Hard to crack for people with weak teeth.
Like an onion they make you cry uncontrollably
Even when you wish to stop.
Like honey,
They taste sweet on your tongue.
Accept words the way they come!
Words are edible and feeble.
Words are truthful and yet deceitful
Words hurts and cuts.
Words burns and on you put thorns
Words are like the pap you drink
They get spoilt when cold.
They are like the meat you chew
They get rotten when not preserved
Accept words from a better hand
And speak the true word
Always.
