What Momma Said About Lifestyle Design

The Village That Vanished (Abikinile’s Prayer)

Osshhh— Get-taway, Our sky singes Our ground trembles O—sha—Osshhhooun Wa—wee Can’t go away, But their breath booms Their eyes salivate Their ears fear not the shrills of O—sha—Osshhhooun O—oui, O—ouiii When dancing ceases, Only your river remains Stones guide the faithful wish While upstream your blood soaked banks decree O—sha—Osshhhooun ~Dwight ดนัย Inspired by The [...]

A High Price for SPF
