Blur

By Kelvin Eloho

Blur, most times I like when it's blur. It has no much ambience, not sharp. The observer have to look ogle.
It could be labelled a beauty spot, a manila (if celestial) or just blot.
Then, it takes time to unravel the truth. You have to be interested to see through the grime. Cos in front's just an illusion, a mirage. The truth lies ahead waiting for a buckle down to awaken from its rest. It hides behind earnestly waiting for a philosopher to come discover and the king to give the word. Cos when God hides a thing, its the honour of kings to search it out.

Review of Children of Blood and Bone

By Kelvin Eloho
Reading Children of Blood & bone . The narrative & descriptions felt so real. Whenever I got lost in a fantasy world of panthenaires, lionaires, maji, kosidans and magic I never wanted leave. Those moments felt like I lived the fiction & I wanted no escape. "Kwame brushes past me, running for the heart of the battle. He grips a dagger tight in his hands. Then he slashes open his palm. Blood magic. Horror settles into my bones. It’s like the world slows to a stop, stretching the seconds between this moment and the last Kwame will ever have. His blood glows with a white light, splashing as it hits the ground. In an instant the ivory light surrounds him, illuminating his dark skin like a god from above. When it reaches the top of his head, it seals his fate. A fire explodes from his skin. Smoldering embers rain from his body. Flames blaze around his form. The fire erupts from every limb, shooting out of his mouth, his arms, his legs. The blast towers meter...

2020: One way to die in the West

By Kelvin Eloho
  Suspense filled, I’ll say that was 2020 for me. I had (what people would call) “a mortal peril” at some point, and quite a lot of interesting/daring situations. 2020 was the most fun year so far.  I appreciate the new connections made this year and the oldies who kept contact. My virtual social interactions ebbed lowest this year. I grew unconsciously distant from others and engrossed in tasks and activities through which I made new connections, making most of my interactions offline. My ‘thinkings’ were most divergent and atypical this year. I encountered situations which I hadn't imagined or only visualized in movies. I engaged in projects of good stats and read quite a lot of books, both academic and non-academic. A ton of academic books and papers I’ll say. I thank God for the years before this which got me prepared; and my parents and ‘dads’ for working me on to handle things alone and build strength in & on challenges, never to fret, go gloom or beg; and God’s spir...

NYSC Post Camp Experience

By Kelvin Eloho
A little prattle to all those white fouls that have just been displaced from camp.  The 1st few weeks after camp could be the most difficult and also a defining period. Some will just walk into their PPA, receive their acceptance letter and even enjoy 2 weeks hols. While some will just go there and get rejected straight away. Some others will be told to go and come back the next day and the next and the next to nauseating extremes until they luckily accept or to your agony reject you. While some will even go and discover their PPA doesn't exist. There'll sure be some that'll will be posted to 1 useless PPA that they're not paying or doing anything and will have to beg for rejection. Amongst these ones, some will be rejected, others wouldn't. Then amongst these corpers, some will just go home and not know what to do with their lives apart from eating and sleeping. While some might even go to lengths such as paying for rejection. NYSC Kit Corp members coul...
