IBADAN

Dusty rooftops shimmering
in the midday sun
like a face wrinkled with age
with deep gauges and networks

within these networks
Nature calls
beckoning a people filled
With zest and life

People that celebrate knowledge
kept on a high pedestal
Oh dusty rooftops
Shimmering in the midday sun

My appointment with thee
Shant be the last
Shant be the last
