Niger-delta River by jide5: 5:43pm On Jun 30, 2008 |
Niger-Delta River Cherubim and Seraphim are singing for us They are cooking for us the meal of salvation Their aprons are saintly robes Their condiments are harvests of virgin earth The celestial virgins are serving our dinner Your moment of glory is timed with sands of gold To the merry you shall come burdens threshed To you your inheritance shall be delivered As paradise The murky Niger-Delta River shall be flushed With the spurt of their plasma The horizons of penury shall be freshened By the waft of our imploding treasure As this Armageddon land shall be matched By the limbs of your own The tracks shall tell The arm which slays at war, remains the feet which turns to home |
