JOSEPH

JOSEPH




I am the sun, 
brightest I shone 
amidst the constellation,
the confluence of opinions,
the messenger with the crown of thorns.
The storm 
headed for myopic norms,
the sunny rays from
shadowed blinds
and shackled minds.
I am Damilola Durojaiye
the statue of those afraid to stay.
I am not seeking veneration,
but to be heard by future generations.
I am not a believer,
I am Joseph the dreamer, 
the voice of the mumbling crowd
scared to shout their thoughts loud.
