Tried By Fire
Whenever I listen to the song ‘Refiner’, by Maverick City Music, I pause and ask myself, am I really ready to be tried by fire? omo… But thinking about it, even Jesus had to go through fire in the garden of Gethsemane where he cried out asking if it was possible for the cup to […]
FALANTINE
“Bunmi, can you believe I have never received a Valentine’s gift in my entire years of living in this world?”
“Lol Simi, why are you now sounding like that.”
“Like how?”
“Like you have been robbed of something valuable.
Like you just found a deformity in your body.
Like this is some deep revelation.”
Is it True?
I got to share this amazing piece “Is it true?’ on the “Creative Kloud” channel. It was inspired by the story of Shedrach, Meshach and Abednego and how we are constantly faced with the same question of compromise even today. Be blessed. And oh, by the way, this spoken word poem was part of my […]
These Words
This is the beginning of a new week.
You would hear many voices again.
Negative, some familiar, one God’s.
Whose voice would you listen to?
Excerpt from ‘Conversations from last night’.
A boy said ‘I love you’

Pamela Why
He is cute.
He looks at me like a cup of icecream
His eyes says that his heart is tingly
I am love.
Maybe we don’t go searching through the dark for purpose
Ain’t you just tired of this “find your purpose” mantra. Maybe we don’t go searching through the dark for purpose dear.
These Simple Things
Ever heard the phrase “what will Jesus do?”- Now don’t stop reading Biko, I’m not about to say something cliche’ So guys, the first time I heard this phrase was when I was in teenage church. The woman from whose mouth the phrase spewed out made us write it in our notes. She stood afar […]
In Position
Of course I am angry! In fact I write this fuming and fanning the beads of sweat running a rat race on my face. It is not funny at all. Would you believe that I came all the way with my high heels, giving myself motivational speech about how I should endure the pain for […]
Awake
O boy, This is how it usually happens o. Sweet breeze kissing your skin from the open window. A longing stare at the moving people, buildings, bill boards and boom!Sleep knocks at your eye lids, just like that, or is it just me? Have I ever told you, that I enjoy sleeping in a moving […]
