MARATHON
They were ahead,
Always been ahead!
From behind we trail,
Like trains on a rail.
They thought us weak
And jest the whole week:
A psychological game,
Another way to attain fame -
This we know,
Better than a mow.
The swift, now exhausted;
No longer excited.
We keep our cool
And await a miracle.
With energy in reserve,
And the medals we don't deserve,
Watch as we stroll to the finish line;
A victory,lips cannot define.
QUEEN
My delectable love is stew,
Exclusively prepared for you.
Life is rustic, black and white;
Like a painter, I make it colourful and bright.
My minty money is meat,
Spend and eat,add weight a bit.
As a queen, rule your world,
Enjoy the things money can afford.
Edem Okon,2020.
