King Cooper is dethroned after facing battles, he barely escapes. After many years in the wilderness he discovers Utopia.
During the writing of Utopia the #Endsars protest began. Topics relating to youth struggles are highlighted in this book of poems, which contains photographs by Ikem Achebe.
From the book:
NOT TO BE SOLD
I was born, brought to earth not to be sold
To feed and grow my value just like gold
Vibrate my mind, thinking what's to be done
My positive mind, priceless and free to soar
Reaching a value shaking market price
You can't buy, it always work on its own
Finding a way to bring forth development
Releasing cure when bitten by scorpion
There is no price attached to one's mind
The greatest of assets that makes us god
Greatest of tool taking us to further times
Priceless piece of work giving life sense
Working until it gets buried in the ground
A NEW HOME
Walking through years searching for a home
Was once a king, now I don't have a throne
Many years of fighting to win a lost battle
I keep going all alone, I've lost my soldiers
Getting to the city gate, what a wall to cross
I look high up but still can't see a soul
All I see is flames, arrows and stones
And a lady at the gate keeping watch
I'm Looking for a place to make a new home
A place to plant seeds and nurture growth
To find a life that cleans bitter memories
And begin brand new with joys of tomorrow
The gate keeper holds the key to new life
Let me in so I can create a new paradise
