A success is the source to others, blessed, becomes.
But, blessing is the rain, which waters works, wrought
by our hands to sprout trees, seeding to redeem wealth!
Therefore, your humble beginnings, must be watered with
strives, till they thrive to drop ripe fruits of your labours.
Young souljahs, your passive candles, kindle: Light up
your fire, from my contagious raging passion.
Ignite your willpower … and let out the
combustible abulia from your exhaust pipes:
Drive; pushing the frontiers of inactivity—passivism,
weighing down the idle mind, beyond the verge of
productivity with problem solving proactions.
What tools do your hands find to wield?
Moses’ rod: The red sea parted in two;
David’s sling and stone: Goliath, dropped dead;
even Malik’s pen and sables: breathes life into
his remoulded souls with written words and
painted pigments revealing pedagogic missives!
Your visors, adjust, and mind’s eye, put to use:
For one who must a thing hold, must it, first see.
Prophet Ezekiel saw dry bones growing bods, to ‘gain live;
pa Abraham walked East, West, North, and South of
Earth’s whole span … willed to him, in his mind.
Even Rev. King—MLK, once had a dream
that, blacks will no longer live in lack…!
What then do you see, my souljah?
I saw Wisdom wash cars, to pay his way through school.
Peter pushed handcarts … to relish the taste of pudding;
to throw clothes on his bare back, Christian cleaned homes.
Prune all excuses for failure, and shed every reason to flop!
For no light shines under the bushel; hence, upon your
candle stands, mount: Stand proud on that built
pedestal, to your seen purposes, serve.
Shine your warm reflective light on our world’s darkened
paths; till apprenticing moon graduates, to have
mastered sun’s brightening tutelage!
– Bard Malik Obynna
