    This one takes poets. Nice.

    May God damned these bombers a thousand times to the hottest part of hell. They take too much from us…

    I enjoyed this piece. Suprisingly devoid of anger. Well done.

    Stupid men. Sleeping with prostitute. Is getting laid that hard for some people? Or is it just some addiction?

    I really enjoyed reading this story. One of the best in awhile.

    I find this funny. Although, I am getting tired of this mono theme revolution taking place in NS. Even the new members are joining. Its all love and romance. But despite that, I enjoyed this one.

    A very sad story. Brilliant by all account. You did well, @abky. Welcome to NS.

    This is a very good idea, @xikay. I will put up my thought soon.

    @Aturmercy. This is a great piece. Simple, deep and clear.

    @nicolebassey. Frowning, I was assured by doctors, is detrimental to health. Lol. Thanks for reading and for your affirmation. I appreciate it.

    Ha ha. Let everyone make her choice, huh?

    Really appreciate your coming and comment.

    layrite commented on the post, Random Run II 2 days, 8 hours ago

    @drzhivago. I appreciate that. A nice compliment.

    @admin. That ‘no related post’ at the bottom of this poem is inaccurate. There is a Random Run I, published here couple of weeks ago. It is a prequel to this one.

    @sontel. That makes sense. I just hope we can do that.

    @sontel. Prof, sir, I do not think @sibbylwhyte was encouraging joining the corrupt. She was only pointing out the obvious. God help us. What do you think of the poem, sir?

    @sibbylwhyte. Thank you! It is indeed difficult not to join ‘em. We should try, though.

    Spoke to Rasheed? I wish! No, I meant you (or someone ) mentioned the name problem to me after my poem was posted here.

    By the act of this honourable house, we hereby condemn layrite’s What Name Do You Give this? to repair house. Special thanks to @kaycee, @sibbylwhyte & @louis.

    layrite commented on the post, I am Rasheed Yekini 5 days, 19 hours ago

    Well, I think he mentioned it to me. Althoug I was aware, I was not ready to cloud my poem with a name Yekini was not known as. Yes, Rasheed is the more correct pronounciation and spelling. But the man himself did […]

    layrite commented on the post, Three Poems 5 days, 19 hours ago

    @kaycee. Thank you. So they are not total crap.(That is reassuring)

    The problem is that that 4th of May started a very inspirational day. I scribbled those lines with thirty minute. Then I put them prematurely […]

    layrite commented on the post, Random Run I 6 days, 1 hour ago

    Ha ha ha. @lulu. 1- Nod your neck is grammatically correct, just like ‘sit on my head’. Verb, object, subject, all in correct order. You may argue that it is not semantically correct. And semantics, you know, is […]

    You did well, @xikay. I love all the Yoruba concepts (as @sambrightomo put it) in the poem. Good one really.

    @lulu. Any relation to that Sani Lulu guy? If yes…

    This is actually my first poem that some readers find difficult to understand. Concerning that fleshing out, I m only afraid the fleshing may make the peom […]
