Useful Sleepless Night – A Poem Worth Reading
USEFUL SLEEPLESS NIGHT
When I miss the train of sleep
I write to while the time away
Its senselessness
Is hidden in its sensible correction
When I miss the train of sleep
I read to while the time away
Feeding knowledge to my brain
Learning to learn and unlearn
When I miss the train of sleep
I think to while the time away
Cooking new ideas in my brain
Building new foundations for my day
Washing the past in the present
And drying them into the future of hope

When sleep eludes me
I remember the pen soldier in me
I remember I am a literate
It doesn’t matter how
I just want to liberate myself
And feed my soul
With rhythmic words
On instruments
Locally brewed
From the belly of woods and skins of animals
Agbadzaa Agbadza
Bɔbɔbɔa Bɔbɔbɔ
Kpanlogoa Kpanlogo
Kinkaa Kinka
Atrikpia Atrikpi
nyayitoa Nyayito
Beautiful lyrics
Soothing to the soul
When I miss the train of sleep at night
I do well to feed myself
And prepare food
To feed other souls
For it is my calling
