THE LEGEND I MET
You probably wouldn’t know him,you probably wouldn’t meet him
But he wouldn’t be forgotten
Babaiya was what he went by, famous for his old age
Having lived for three quarters a century ,but no quits
Mostly spoke in low tones , but named amongst tongues
Also had love for them , who sucked all his coin
People claimed he was young,dumb and ended broke
But i saw different.
Being Young comes with weakness,one which is difficult to discern
And women was his weakness
This was a warrior , one who slaughtered beasts
Now just a frame of his youthful age, leading his way to rest
He had the smile of an African man
Proud to be shone down
Although not great and vast as “legends”
He was proud to walk the face of earth
The LEGEND I met.
