The Man Who Dared

The Man Who Dared

Onakpoberuo Onoriode Victor.

1. I dare to stand up for me; what I think, believe and do
2. I dare to stand out
3. A man at some point would have to stand or fall for something
4. So, I dare to stand for me in spite of the alluring appeal to align and be accepted
5. I am a believer
6. I fully accept and embrace all that God has freely given me
7. I suck it all up, I inhale it all to the very heart of it
8. I am so sorry shame was buried a billion years ago; It must have been my hammer that drove the last nail into his God condemned bury-box
9. I dare, I dare and I dare
10. People are too afraid of things they shouldn't be afraid of; institutions, authorities, traditions...what, what, what?
11. Who are they and what are they?
12. You should rather be more afraid of time, that it is speeding away and that you are tickingly losing the right to the free space you currently have
13. I see no fear, cares or competition
14. There are no doubts but if any, they only exist in the minds of talkers, hyenas, "quaquaqua" people, whose preoccupation is to analyze, consider and wonder at the dust raised by my mission ladened feet
15. I dare, I dare, I dare!
16. I don't see what you see, I can't hear what you hear and I can't stay a second where you live!
17. I dare to evolve, to be me and not you, neither them nor those ones there
18. I passionately refuse to be apologetic about being me and I am not about to make you understand me
19. It is not important, because what is important, I have already said
20. I dare!
21. Time is a judge
22. It is questioning, observing and taking notes
23. I refuse to be judged by time, to be questioned, interrogated and condemned for those things I could have done
24. No way!
25. I therefore strive each day, making the most use of the Rhythm of time
26. It is moving, I am moving, it is ticking and I am speaking, freely dispersing ideas and making proselytes
27. I dare, I confront, I assert, I oppose, I question, because I know time will be the least merciful in judging all my rationalized indolence
28. I dare my brother, I really do
29. The world is a large place, so I dare to take possession, break new grounds and open new paths
30. Yes, yes, yes, I dare and I dare and I dare because I hate to be confronted by time and I can't look in his eyes!
31. So for my children and for their children, children, I dare
32. To be me, the Man, Daddy and Grand Pa they'll love to seat around and talk about;
33. Who ....was..... he...?
34. The man ...who ...dared
