In Loving Memory Of My Father Who Left This World Five Years Ago... / In Her Loving Memory / In Loving Memory Of Wuse Old Market ---by Dike Chukwumerije (2) (3) (4)
In Loving Memory Of Him by Nobody: 5:30pm On Feb 07, 2013 |
EXPERIENCE On the crossbar she sat herself; With broken hand for medical care. On the road rifle at the ready was held; Soldiers stentorian orders were blared. Like a child rent from the mother; With a start sidled up to the father. Everybody there was downcast; I thought the die was the cast. For the charred jeep by the road; Villagers were chased like rogues. Lined in tremor,patches and rags; With impunity frisked to pants. Willy-nilly in two trailer trucks. A Hobson's choice to make tracks. Through the lonely bushy pastures; We went down the dreary campus. Officer goggled at all and sundry; The batmen behind followed as a duty. With many in a slum that stank; I thought that life was at stake. Barred for three without a draught; But for seven hunger dropped. There's more to the event of seventy; Than meets the eye of the unconcerned. Red-alert for the worst yet to come; Immediate release was then the command. From the prison as dirty as pigs; From the heavens our dirts were washed. For years,she was out of sight,out of mind; But to us unknown that God has planned. My late dad. 2 Likes
