Something happened at 'Nyanya'
Blast!
Dawn's facade was scarred
in tears of guts and gash!
Pelted flesh smack in disgust at shattered panes;
in salute to an ailing Nation!
Smouldering charred stumps;
chunks of 'our citizens' pieces
Scattered in a reckless mix
of grim, wide grim!
Smeared blood,pain again;
and that stench!
For we know that smell!
Like seasoned neglect
Another testament to morbid reigns
of repeated legislation-slack
Present and past!
But,do not rain on us
The rheum of your guise;
of faceless wars and putrid discuss
Be still,
Let conscience sing
a coarse lullaby of yesterday and today.
But, do not forget to remember;
that, something happened at 'Nyanya'!
I could feel the blast like I was there....iva
ReplyDeleteMuito Bom. Like it.
ReplyDeleteHave we not already forgotten that something happened at the UN? And what about the rest? I don't know. For now, I'm grateful the Americans r here.
