    Caught in the app
    The lying art
    He had mastered
    With a sense of craft
    And practice
    He loomed viral now
    Like a scandal on insta
    Grammed in the pun
    Of words he failed to fun
    And fund his way from
    The gaffe that should
    Consume the timber
    Of his caliber
    Even as he prattles
    Praying for bigger goofs
    From the goof men in power
    To consume his own
    So he can return to his winning days
    Of ease and pleasure
    Obot son of Akpabio
    The one who sent prayers
    Oiled in the anointed tone
    Of a money alert
    In the inbox of his colleagues
    In the sin ate house
    Of the horribles
    Is the man with the gavel
    The hammer to nail in
    The unreason that governs us
