Love Like Poetry


Heart, Love and Peace




















Eyes dark piercing into brown
Chocolate skin melting against caramel's
Magnetic opposite. Two worlds. One soul.

They say he's a soup brimming with oil, bland and lifeless
With words blasting like drums, I'm asked -
"what did you see in him"?
And oh, I'm the girl who eats a rock and swallows zero water
I'm the girl with beaded waist and ringed ears
Moving with rhythm like the bata drum
My bum cheeks kissing each each other enticingly
Soft like hot butter

But you're more than shawarma, free WI-FI and credit alert


Love Like Poetry

With cares as little as a child, he tops the chart
I've always known he was from another planet
An alien being.
How can one embody so much perfection?
My blue boy... Seven men in one
Rare as scoring 10/10 in a lecturer's English essay
Rare as the sight of the crispy new 100 naira note
And as the sight of gold on the earth surface
I remember when he came at sunrise
With bent head
Kissing my feet... worshiping
I get a taste of heaven gentle burning at the tip of my tongue
His love is as certain as the rising sun
And with it warms my heart like the smell of party jollof rice


I'm always dizzy with sweet satisfaction
Sweet like ripe sheri mangoes
For once, I feel the fear that lurks hesitantly
That you might get your heart stolen
By fairer beauties
Long of legs
With hips the curve of a potter's clay pot

Love











Every lady deserve a love like these
Least once in seventy years
You are more than poetry
And I hope you don't sail with your heart
"when you go on the morrow"
Even though you're a fat ass
Everything about you is sweet
Big Daddy, see your son!!!..... A bonafide heir
A true semblance of your nature
Carrying your spirit and invoking your power
I. AM. TRULY. BLESSED

Faux-Intellectuals and How to Pepper Dem. A Smart Woman View of Big Brother Nigeria 2019

Image
BBNaija 2019 Have you ever been judged for indulging in guilty pleasures? I certainly have. My friends have been questioning me lately about my love for Big Brother Nigeria (BBN). Most times, I am at a loss of what and how to reply to them without going into my usual pentecostal and energetic reply, so instead, I ignore them. But here's the thing: I'm tired of being put on the spot and made to feel like I have to defend myself. These questions range from “what do you see in BBN” to “how can you waste your time watching this. In reality, what they seem to mean with their words is - “How can someone as intelligent as you waste time on something as trivial as BBN?" It's like they have this delusion of grandeur as if their own intellectual pursuits make them better than those who enjoy mainstream entertainment" Who decided that being intelligent means you can't also enjoy popular culture? Why can't we be both smart and socially engaged?

Context: The Missing Plug in Target Audience Conversion,

Image
Target Audience Conversion in Marketing   The words ‘target audience’ has been so loosely used in marketing parlance today, that its true meaning has been overshadowed by the fanciful use of this term. It has become more than just a buzzword; it is almost like an entry pass to some marketing big boys club. This is, however, not intended to underestimate the importance of target audience in marketing, it is to say that just like rice and stew, there are other indices and factors equally important, if not more- in the success of a marketing campaign. Indeed, if it is solely omnipotent, why then does it seem like the people we term our target audience – who have been unjustly compelled to be the elixir of our business success, whether a service or a physical product– do not often convert. Please note that every business should have a buyer persona(s), if you don’t, then get down to it.  This is very dicey, because conversion strategies can take many forms – going for a scheduled meeti

With hybrid and remote work becoming the new norm, employee engagement has become a challenge for many organizations. As a company with a diverse workforce of millennials, Gen Z, and baby boomers, Duch Digital Media (DDM) faced similar struggles.
