The S*x Starved Teenager [A Short Story by ThaNaijaPOET]

The tale I am about to share

Took place well over a decade ago

But I still cannot resist the urge

To share it

Especially with those

Who constantly spur me to write diaries/memoirs like this

Today…

I am going to use real names and factual places.

I can’t recall the precise year

But there are three characters in this story

And the location was Ikeja

A district in Lagos State – in Nigeria

Longest Poem Ever Written

Mahabharat, (or Mahabharata as it is known in English), is the longest poem in the world, made up of 220,000 lines divided into 18 sections. It was written in Sanskrit, the ancient sacred language of India and it tells the story of a great battle that occurred about 3000 years back. It was on the banks of river Saraswati that saint Ved Vyas wrote Mahabharat, approximately in 900 BC.

Did You Know This About Making Love?

In ancient England, people could not have sex without consent from the King.
when people wanted to have a child, they had to solicit a permission to the monarchy.
In turn they would supply a plaque to hang on their door when they had sexual relations.
The plaque read "Fornication Under Consent of the King" (F.U.C.K)
This is the origin of the word.

Do you agree with this?

Food of No Salt [A Poem by Arthur Apeh ALexandra Ojima]

FOOD OF NO SALT

To hell with thee,
Season of No meaning,
Questions of No session,
Land of No boundaries.
Food of No salt.

Look At all my part, full of ebullient.
Look at my mission, full of adventure.
What? What??
Why what, what, like the road not taking??
Food of No salt!

Tell the poor all they need to know.
Tell them the way to live rather than calling them names.
Why would thou call them fools while they are full of ebullient?
Tell them what give them the misery seat.
Food of No salt.

Oh! Remind Africans of her daily voice,
Tell her all she need to know.
Tell her even as she shout like a bat.
Tell her of many trillion years rule by her dubious sons without fruit.
Food of No Salt.

Oh food of No Salt! How sweet art thou?
Salute to thy sweet bitter pungent.
Salute to thy demolition of hope and joy.
Tell me! How can I bear fruit in this desert?
Food of No salt.

Written by Arthur Apeh ALexandra Ojima
