Business As Usual (short Poem) by Nobody: 3:42pm On May 22, 2020 |
The poem you are about to read concerns a Giant who believed he is too strong for a pandemic (covid19) that has dealt with bigger Giants. If you don't or you like poems, this may water your interest beacuse you are familiar with some of the settings mentioned. Read with a slow pace, but let me know if you need more clarification. BUSINESS AS USUAL Close your gates, you can't? Darker days ahead your light Close your doors you Giant and Guide your grave, groove right You shrubs outside, crumbs inside Growing oil, deserts feedable soils You fry dry crude and cry high you Giant No more oil Giant, paddle your ferry Your lights all dim? Whistle your liars, call them! "Covid1-9 can't kill black Giants" They are ready, no, you won't lie Covid19 crawls not only at Nights With lights, it still fights Caging those telling truth; they with bright sight Covid19 spares not your opened door Covid knows not you Giant Police don't shoot it, he's gallant Own your own carelessness Giant Not business as usual, be gallant The poet's name is Abiodun Itunu. He is a social media strategist. |
