Wondering about my footsteps Yeah! About my footsteps Wondering how my footsteps would go to the unknown place Even on great speed, I wondered; However, I kept moving. Greaterness diffused in my thoughts. I thought of how the environment now seemed,It seemed greater than my human greatness;The environment moved. The grasses, trees, all moved at great speed than my footsteps did I increased my speed but it was of little help to me; Around me was faster. I knew I had greater authority;My environment had greater power. I was beginning to get feebleLittle did I know when I gave in with my authority to greater power. And so steadily on did I continue until to the cave I got. Many stairs led to the cave,Bewilderment and null expectation accompanied me down the rocky stairs,To a large open cave it led;Water gushed out through a conduit and onto a conveying stream. I stopped midway the large curved step to stare;I have never beheld such sight. This place is called Ogba:Where people that lived in the community fetched water. Aside from water, the place exhumed ancient mysticism,So much that a photographic camera is useless here,Pictures taken here do not print. Whatever made Ogba a place of water now,It sure was more than a place of water more years ago:The gods must have been served here..... ..........
