These above letters rings a bell like a child that needs attention. As the word itself is that which can never be avoided regardless of one's view. For its fact remains the same countlessly. And I guess you know the fact I'm talking about right!? It's still the fact that makes you flare up at slightest occurrences. The same fact that makes you question your existence! That same six-letter makes you doubt some reasonable occurrences extraordinarily. Back to the 'Almighty Sanity!!!' I want you all time know that there's no and insane man without his days of being sane. Just as your over sentimental about sanity could drive you to the land if insanity!

POEM: Patriots Call By Oyewole Barakat

On the first of October, ninety sixty Nigeria got her independence. "Freedom", we said it was. Nay! We are in dependence Governed by freewill  And forceful nature of power intoxication Controlled by the greedy nature  Of making the public cake  A family legacy. Six and one years of animosity  Against internal races. Sixty-one years of being Cruel to one another. Alas! We still long, Yearn, hope, and pray for a better nation. Arise! Oh compatriot. Let's rise to disobey our free will,  selfishness, self-centeredness And be Independent from being egocentric. Let's stay strong, faithful, and be good For the better nation that awaits us.                               Oyewole Barakat.
