This Is Aba by ubany(m): 11:35pm On Mar 24, 2023 |
THIS IS ABA This is Aba The Elephant city A city married to commerce Conceived and birth in confusion If you must walk here, don't stumble or fall If you decide to run Don't get weary and faint If you have strength to fly Remain up in the sky Don't ever contemplate to land This place is a jungle without woods Everyone is awaiting to outsmart the other To eat and devour their carcass In this land, boys are not smiling I tell you, no joy If you don't have money here, Just hide your face Your degree means nothing here Until it's translated to cash Where two or three are gathered A market is establish . We sale the un-salable without warranty or guaranty When you get home Ascertain the genuinety of the item bought This is Aba Don't be silent here They'll think you're dumb Keep talking even if you're not making sense Everyone is doing same Don't be sane here It will work to your disadvantage Everyone here is insane, but neatly dressed This is aba We prefer keke and min bus to taxis and uber We prefer sky rising buildings to bungalows and flats We prefer POS than queuing up in banks We're constantly on the move This is Aba Just mind yourself whenever you come here @ Nnamdi Nwaubani 2023 ,#Lines_and_verses_of_the_minor_prophet Please like my page on facebook : Lines and verses of the minor prophet 1 Like
