By Ben Ezeohagwu
In motion,
you set
unseen notion,
through writing.
Either towards
Height or depth,
in the choice,
it lies.
In potion,
as volition,
flows thoughts,
onto paper,
through writing.
Such drums,
blessings or hardships,
from such writer,
to himself,
and audiences.
Mind the writing,
by such echoes,
from pen,
uplift or debase.
Write so as,
inform, entertain or record,
such archives,
be rich in humanity.
Ezeohagwu, who won the Onigraffiks Prize for Literature (2017), is Professor of Graphonomy and Chancellor, African American University, Porto-Novo, Republic of Benin.
