5 random thoughts about Wanlov, the Kubolor…
I was at a bazaar on Saturday with a friend. I saw this ‘obroni-ish’ dreadlocked man standing there barefooted. I surreptitiously scanned the whole area to see if I could see a pair of sandals (flip flops or afro moses, anyone) lying around. Nothing. Then my friend remarked, “Oh, that’s Wanlov.” I found out 5 interesting things about him that have occupied all my “floating thoughts” all weekend long…
Would he walk to town everyday if he lived at Prampram, Kasoa or Oyibi and not Arirport (or is it Dzorwulu)?
Does he walk on the (mirage inducing) scalding sidewalks at midday barefooted too?
What if his loincloth hooks on a nail and snags? Would we see a (maybe toned) pale behind?
Does he not feel too much air passing around his… um…private regions when he walks around without briefs?
Are his T shirts made in Ghana too?
I wonder…

Tailgater Terror
Why do you follow me so closely?
Do you want to smell my nether regions?
Or maybe even kiss it?
Why do you shine your big glaring lights so brightly?
Do you want me to blind you with my mirrors?
Or maybe even cause you a seizure?
Get the hell away from my bumper, you idiot!

The curious case of Mental Health in Ghana
She cooks them their dinner
They munch with delight
They don’t know it’s their last
For it is laced with poison
After they cross to the other side
She lines up the 5 limp bodies
According to age
Then calls Daddy to come for his clan
She’s clearly cuckoo
Yet in analyzing the situation
The ‘News Team’ calls a cleric!
So, where are the Ghanaian psychiatrists?
