Again And Again (poem) by Nobody: 12:09am On Jan 27, 2021 |
AGAIN AND AGAIN We have been forced into silence by our votes We refused to learn from past experiences ' Ah! This One is different' , we thought. Like whirlwind, we were swept off our feets Leaping with joy Like a little child who had been gifted a toy After being promised dinosaur over and over. Here we are today Regretting the choices of yesterday Wishing we had ' toed ' the right path So we could at least get a plate, just a plate. Like birds they flap their Agbadas While we sleep on empty stomach Ah!!!! My people my people We have been played like a game of chess The same way we have been played before. Alas!! Game over Stalemate would have been better But no, victory to them, again We have lost, like we have always lost Bags saddled, going back home to be back soon. ~KI 1 Like |
