By Nehi Igbinijesu.
Awaken quickly
Posiedon unnravels about us
Hence hath come curses
From handshakes, lions and horses
Arise completely
For the day devours us
In somber silence
Of brethren, lions and horses
Get out hastily
For who shall save us?
Deluges, rapes and snakes?
Yea! And handouts, lions and horses
Roarings and neighings
To bread, clothe and water
A hap needless
From handshakes, lions and horses
Wake up
Valiant clime and gutters
Redeem your suckling tots
Revive the virile homestead
From Handshakes, lions and horses
This Poem is part of the anthology of 30 Poems titled: “Dirges of The Niger” By Nehi Igbinijesu.
