Come hear the story
Of the man who lived at the top most storey
Of the tallest building
In his surroundings.

So he saw himself above all
And needed no help at all
From those who lived below,
Because their sight was low
And they can’t see
Beyond their stand.

But he had forgotten
That the route to his flat
Was cleaned
And watched
By that pauper
Who had nothing to offer!

He had forgotten that no one is useless,
Except he who chooses to be fruitless.

meet the poet: Oku-ola Paul
