SISYPHEAN OF SLAKES


                                                                    
Cocoon of  skullduggery  skirted in a skulk ;
Thatched with skid row romp and Sisyphean of  a gully ;
Slams of slanging match slather the siblings of a whore ;
Sloppy and sloggy gulls its slobbery ;
And slushed with Machiavellian scrimmages  the scud –diver amidst
the Sisyphean of slakes scribbled with schmaltz  and schism of the trolls ;
Tsunami of hurly-burly ,howling as tug of war thronged nature ,singing
And striking its  strings of thub-thumping bells-its tubular bells;
Shindig and shibboleth not yet sewered  to shilly-shally witly-sentinel;
As skimpy froth unslakens  sleight of hand

Image result for pictures of soyinka

, slunk in broad daylight;
Sob-narratives and soap boxes hurled   in public square , vacuity-detached ;

That they as sniffer dogs dare no sneaker-detest;


Thraldom of  sodden –fountain spangled human and Moorish sod ;
Sobriety   sombred at the solitude of ill-bliss fountain’s variegated soi-disant ;
Turpitude-turn turtle, twigs the twilight of twenty-twenty vision ;
Schmucks  and pillocks , benighted as they come ,benighted as they go;
Twilight zone not yet prowled that sclerosis may bleed and heal ;
Behold cramp here hilt to thresh ;From a flotilla  of a filigree and  a filigree of
 farrago  ;
Hence the farce and the fable of the hodge-podge  enveloped the public square;
Sulks of sulky submergence circumvent stymied squeaky clean apogee;

O Sisyphean of slakes ,why did you err?
O Sisyphean of slakes ,insouciant and iridescent , thou babylon of slatterns
and supercilious subterfuges;
Haunted with ironworks of the irreverend smokescreen ,censure and subjudice
waylaid thee at the bickering of strands ;
Deadbeat and dead duck unctions its cubicle of the strands ;
Uncouth broth of candour , refutes remorse feeding upon the glee of banality.



Refrain time refrain pawned season as benevolent sulker stalks as the dickens
 for new moon  ;
Corpus whacked dunghill, pale yellowish, hungry wolves ,cognoscenti of
the nethers;
Coldblooded and cold hearted cringed not , nor  pine away to croak;
Sisyphean deafens deathknell  and the earth groans  ;
Treacly of treachery hurled into trenches of treachery avalanche ;
A zone not yet thawed  remorseless twiddles the slakes;
Still they bulge off the trolley with the twain of the trolls ,higgle-piggledied;
And the revels  of the clowns smote on ………..contd



Trojan horses –the zone’s gladiators  serenaded on exile ;
Behold rampart is fallen ,where are the gladiators ?
A flotila is gone  and the forester is long dead  .
