tobi amusan’s win brings good to many
your win brings more good in loads
again in this very run,
that is,
the 2022 world athletics championships
we hear,
you’ve gone past keni harrison,
whose record was set in 2016 women’s100 metres hurdles
when the news of your victory
reached her,
she greeted it with
calm and friendly response
if she’d been someone else,
she could’ve met the news with
vitriolic sparks
in this case, she didn’t
but in her own words
she admits, “… records are made to be broken …”
b’cos she understands
nature improves her offspring day in, day out
this reminds us of grandma dadanyo’s words, that,
“when nature improves her children, it isn’t meant for the individual to become cocky
but that, whatever good nature deposits in her offspring,
can be utilized to put hope in all
and uplift everyone
and inspire the human heart to something new
and to something more embracing”
hence many are pleased at the good
sports-womanship
keni harrison openly displays at the arrival of tobi amusan’s win
so, tobi amusan,
your win
brings more good to many
and more joy to loads
