Alone by A.Jeremiah Natur's Quill









Alone


 As I drew near the forest, 
To see the flyer seed
And the old woman's creed
With the spying of her crest.



There came a voice
Through the whispering waves
I heard the words like coins
In the singular cave

The desert wide and winter low
All came to where flies do sow
The boon boomed my head below
Forced me down to think of my bow!

There came a man in black
As slithering as a snake
His eyes tamed what he lacks
With poise of his fake.

Oh well...I thought
People of same with mysteries they fought
They came as wide around the flame
Without knowing they are all the slave,
hmm...
Like all self of the man in black!

Lol. People say things like. 'He has not even proposed talk more of walking down the aisle with me' 'He does not have a car,  talk less a house" Well these two expressions or collocations are not common in British and American English. Here are the universal conventional English collocations for Nigerian English's  'Talk more of' and 'Talk less of',  #LetAlone 'Let alone' is  used to indicate that something is far less likely or suitable than something else already mentioned.
