Poem: Which Way Nigeria? by lordthunderbolt(m): 7:55pm On Jun 03, 2015 |
Deep under the surface Lies a strange calm at the terrace Blood boil burn in those darkened furnace Strange spirits strain strange shortage Over the calm Lies maximum disturbances on the palm Who knows my qualms? Who feels the spam Who knows the scam? Outward I boil and shine The eagles gather in the shrine While they ''pour'' sacred wine 'Our' foetuses starve while they dine When I raised my voice in shame Educated illiterates trade blame 'Our' heritage became lame Barren poachers know the game On the surface everything seems calm On our sandals Remains great scandals Intellectual vandals Makes even the learneth to ponder On the surface strange works of wonders Blinds even the canon fodders While our country men bend to conquer Many things fidget asunder 2 Likes 1 Share |
