THE IRONY OF LIFE

Life comes with switches; God can't grant all your wishes. Some wrap it up with stitches, but it's later torn down by snitches. What you want to pursue, some don't see as an issue. Irony sounds like a Yoruba word: "Irọ́ ni." How can an earthworm look like Àrọ̀nì? You're created as an ebony—don't risk it by bleaching. It's severe agony to negate what you're preaching. Though life comes with its flaws, don't ridicule your esteem, Like a pig rolling on the floor with no self-esteem. It's their turn today, but when it returns, it may pass their way. Life is like a cane from a palm, swinging right and left. Don't go to extremes by causing harm; It will be valueless, like property gained by theft. Wait patiently—your time will arrive. It will be sufficient if you don't give up on your strive.
