Like YouA Poem by obiajulu nwa m
I was,
but a virgin until you poisoned me How an outcaste I turned, yet I despiced you not craving your animosity Coneheads of our times why was I not schooled? The approbation and callous braggado yielded fields of fallen ones in delusion, we merry away in foolhardiness as we buy water to get drunk we abhor and scoffer away at time Die hard or die young, no difference it makes shame to thy honour society ordained messiahs shame to thy honour as we hang from trees, smiling,grinning in death as flies freely kiss our swollen lips How stupid were they, the murderers, who kill their blood? Men of like sufferings and still suffers the chameleons of opulence conscience,a ware so affordable christened vote,a worthless veto bartered by sweetened mere words Now, an anthem hummed by pauper puppets resonates rinsing murderous hands in blood a pawned generation, unashamedly wayward bleached and leeched psyched zombies seasoned to annihilate tomorrow saints on quiet altars but of an insatiable lust like you searching for essence in a void © 2014 obiajulu nwa m |
