BANKHALL

 BankHall

(By Adigun Olusola Clinton a.k.a SolarSpeaks)

 




You've slammed doors against me

When we had to war with words.

I ran up

Yet you followed!

 

I've heard you a couple times

Singing sweet solos

And I can't wait to see your debut single...

 

I've banked in your hall-

Watched you credit our goodluck

 debit our wealthy 'cursed-tomers'

And corporate hoodlums.

 

I've watched you curse their stomachs-

deep as the bottomless pit.

No wonder they can't stop to eat

Arc Angel said, " They seem constipated

Cos they still don't give a shit..."

 

I love Apple

But I can't eat Steve's left over.

So you've taken Steve's job to provide me with full yummy and punny shaped apples from your poe-tree

That leaves me chewing my cord.

All for free!

 

Really I'd like to pay you in US dollars

But I'm still paying so much attention to

The Forex news so you'd have to wait

Till I get some 'change'

 

 

Then I'd afford you at least a sleek Honda Accord

Let's hope all things go under accord.

 

But like in Paul's word

It seems death loves to rain (reign)

Cos he's always an August visitor.

 

So my fellow Bard

Learn to number your days

write your ways in Alphabets

And ensure to put them in upperCASE^
