Analytic mind       Written April 8^th 2011 by Jokpeme Joseph Omode

I feel like drowning in the ocean of facts

Until I find a new foothold

Or learn to swim.

I was engulfed with a crowd of difficult emotional conflicts

When I was troubled with a sea of trouble

As the full moon smiles on the world below.

I was plunged into the sea of ideas

Where I must begin to think for myself

To stretch the mind

And explore the realm of the conceivable.

I took rational decisions

About significant issues

Which now develop my mental muscles

To open new vistas.
