THE BEAUTIFUL TROUBLE

THE BEAUTIFUL TROUBLE

BEAUTIFUL TROUBLE

Baba Risi has gone
to the market
to bargain for goods
not foods
nor clothings
Baba Risi has gone
to the market
to buy feud
war,
envy,
and apathy,

 

Baba Risi pocket is filled
and leaking
with gold
So,
he has gone to the market
to acquire trouble

 

The elders says
when you seek trouble
and it refuse you
seek another wife
Baba Risi has gone
to the house of Ogunmoyero
to seek for Aduke’s hand
in conjugal
He has given unto them
wine and kolanut

 

Beautiful trouble

Beautiful trouble

Baba Risi has built
another hut in his courtyard
in preparation of Aduke’s arrival
The huts in Baba Risi’s courtyard
Is now four
Baba Risi has acquire
with his money,
beautiful trouble.
