A Zoo Called A Country by ElderlyPerson(m): 9:50pm On Apr 08, 2018 |
"A ZOO CALLED A COUNTRY" I know of a country Where disorderliness attains its climax Dignity and Prestige they let go off All in the name of selfishness. I know of a country Where agitators are tagged terrorists Terrorists they apprehend not Yet, unending lies they deploy to redeem their uncourteous acts I know of a country Where Fulani herdsmen are privileged of gallivanting in gangsterism There, armless IPOB they consider a threat to the country Operation Python dance today, Crocodile smile the next they use to savage the situation. Peace of mind a long forgotten word in her dictionary As Boko Haramists terrifies the peaceful atmosphere today Our maidens they make means of dialogue tomorrow. While we were still in a melancholy of the unseen Chibok girls Not long after our Dapchi girls they got hold of again. A country I had always thought it was Not until they made known it was a glorified zoo Snake now turned a minister of finance, Monkey the new C.B.N governor A country or a Zoo ? Where toils of hardwork counts not Admission/Employment you get not from unrelentless efforts Rather, connection masterminds even the slightest efforts A Country or a Zoo ? Where the corrupted wants to fight corruption Where dying masses is not a concern Rather merrying in their 50-milion power bike is what matters most A Country or a Zoo ? Where the rich gets richer Embezzlement their utmost goal Fraud/Yahoo the only means of surviving for a common man's child Only if I knew it was a glorified zoo Only if I knew animals were slightly different from these ones If and only if I were to make another choice Then I would have opt to stay in heaven. 1 Like |
