Africa

Africa, so replete with many
Yet so poor.
For so long, those whose chains bound her
have long left her shores
But yet in chains she bind herself.

Those chosen to represent her now eat
Alone in a bowl  in cliques.
Her leaders intoxicated by power never let go
Sniffing lives out of any who dare oppose
And so the people became slaves in their homes.

Africa for once we all pointed fingers at the colonials..
Saying in one accord let them leave.
Gone they all left
But now we are worst than they left us
In colonialism our children had jobs,
Now with power our children are jobless

For isn't power more useful in the hands of the
Oppressor?
Why do we chose to betray the very tenant which we fought to be free
Sadly, like the Israelites in the wilderness
We ask our moses why has thou brought us out of Egypt to die in the wilderness??
       With so much, yet very little to eat
        Africa her people, her leader, her woe.

Sleep

In your palm I rest
For safe you keep
Away from my troubles
In your abode my worries lay dead
till I wake of course.

My anguish vague in your presence
Like an octopus, in safety your tentacles wraps me, so assured.
Daze and Dazzle I rest in your fantasy
Away from blaring horn of cars,
Hordes of foot steps, my ears becomes deaf in pleasure..
Sleep, carries  me like a child in her mother's womb, protected from the world.
But eager to deliver me to world
For perhaps we are only guest in sleep home, for any delay  stay leads to death.

You bring comfort when weary,
In your palace everyone is a king,
Free to dream no limit no obstacles
For even Kings and laird can become servants and the other master in sleep
For the poor can ride on horse's
The limped can run,
The crippled can walk.

"lessiful"

The privileged few sits, merry
With fist clinched, mouth's filled.
They Held on tight to plenty.
Devoid of provident
The poor Loafers

Soonest Mirth turned sorrow
But the early morning sun rose
Bringing gay and brisk and soon,
gaiety returned
But the dark nights still harbours,
vague terror
One that overshadows the moonlight.
From cock crow to dusk,
They till the soil, but sadly during
harvest they reap nothing.

For a weakening soil those not reap well
Neither does a lazy man reap bountiful
But those who sow yam at the first rain,
And weed at its tendrils reaps well,
In grim the lazy struggle, small they reap.
Alas!! The hunter as returned
Sadly though empty handed
For even his tricks doesn't lay sway
the animals knoweth it all.

War

Born infant
Her growth stunted
No other than herself
Wayward and self aggrandize

Her pregnant children
Never delivers,
Those who make it to birth,
Dies before christening
Perhaps her doctors are docile
Her midwives disillusioned
Six years to her christening
Her sons waged war
No external aggressors
Just her, herself and her sons

Plagued by greed,
They exhibits strands of intolerance
Clobbering their swords against the,
moonless sky.
The aroma of gunpowder fills the air
Men squealing and snarling as the,
ground became greasy with gore
Still they wrestle, on their mother' breasts
Same breasts they sulked milk from

Unperturbed the children plays
Albeit with sunken eyes and swollen belly
they kick their woollen ball,
War songs are now lullabies,
the kids recites to bed.
In clusters the elders gather,
Too old to fight
Frail and weary,
They wonder about their wounds

Indeed sleep as been betrayed,
Perhaps so, other than those at war
To what end is this,
To what victory is greater than life?
Victory now is pyrrhic,
For broken bones and limbs litters.
Her soldiers at battle ground quell,
But quiting is not thinkable
At Nights they drank drin gin,
Humor is still kept relevant,
For only through that is insanity,
Preserved.
