READ: Poetry: The Gay, The Gayly, And The Gray – Who Made You God?
by Clement Molu
Once upon a time, some claim to love LGBT more than God
They quote Words from the greatest man that ever lived
Unfortunately making silent the true essence of the account in order to justify themselves
Maybe trying to suggest that the Great man supported wrong doing
Then said ‘he who hath no sin should cast the first stone’
#The crowd sublimed like smoke
From the tip of a quenched matchstick previously aflame
They disappeared one after the other
Into dark crevices to go kiss their sins a little more
Trembling, the woman found redemption
In eyes that chose not to condemn
Eyes that made her realize that she is forgiven
With stern words: “Go and sin no more”
#Nigeria our Nigeria
We should condemn this act to its roots
But we should rather look for a way out of it
Churches discuss this openly in your synagogues
Mosques discuss it openly in your arenas
Accept secret counselling for those involved
Open your welcoming arms with a view to Re-shape their thinking
The world is perverse and we all need re-orientation of the mind
I will suggest we trace our steps back to the Greatest man we’ve been quoting wrongly
And seek forgiveness and purification
Only in Him can we all be saved
If you care to know who this great man is
at His name every knee will bow
LGBT will bow at the name of Jesus.
