HOLED COUNTRY

Sensible justice masked in equity

Masked plunderers fight wars in 'amity'

Smiles of day burns the night

our blackened land poisons edible plants



'doved' affairs strangles their heir

''Crowns''...'They' demand our hair

Unity tarts so rare

Mangrove 'lions' have become the prey



'We' spoke in silence, 'they' spoke in 'tougues'!

We pray and they banish us like monks!

'We' cower and it has prolonged

while the rich men hoard poverty



Our 'crude' tears rolled down several creeks

Population of the desert became the 'creed'

How could the desert be more populated than the 'creeks'?!

While fertile lands harbour more ghost with 'reeds'!

I have seen my neighbours

their pet names abhors

It doesn't exalt

our lip neighbours...fetish demeanours



I have seen their flutes of mammon

Lip service haunts daemons

Sweet oranges turn sweet lemons

Ethnicity is the divisive felon



have you seen ''our'' manor?

Rich in hurt and fallow in love of honour

songs of soprano needs no tenor?

''our'' neighbours...'king' of the manor!



Our neighbours are owners of wild oats!

And demand for our milky goats

Our fallow crops has became no 'road'

Deserts have suddenly become our ''loads''



Have you seen 'our ' neighbours?

That sell our children like cattle

and warn us never to scuttle

Their chances of a cracked marble



Our neighbours have great 'faith'

Cartoons in Denmark gave us ''cracks''

Isreal and Palestine have become 'the' attack

We are 'dark' far away from their lands!



Have you seen our neighbours!

That condone religious labour?

Our 'black gold' is their rubour

and they whip us to ''stupor''!



Have you seen them? As if we are one!

They say it to our faces, while we gavel the crumbs

May their pipers never defeat those 'bumps'

Our mighty neighbour. ..Our parcel of worms!
