For Nigeria! by Major001(m): 12:58pm On Feb 20, 2012 |
Looking, intently, through Life’s always-revealing crystals; In an imperative trip down the past lane; Stands a lurid painting of the over five-decade old Infant – the colored-master’s tainted work of art; The ever-obedient slave – laughing joyously at The severe whips of corruption – reveling in Straggling all over the field of advancement – Thus earning a spot in rating as still ‘developing.’ This pathetic history remains grounded on the portrait Of baleful leadership – spewing out incongruous Policies – all to the injury of the deficient masses. Once again, the red carpet of choice has been Rolled out – in colorful introspective embroidery. It’s time to veer off the path of platitude; hurling Back these stained elements; physicians of no value. The quest for empowering the right good-doers Must be sculptured on the base of unity; a Collection of faithfuls – donning intransigent vests. This quest begins with you! Ikenna Igwe |
