Let The Revolution Wait by afroxyz: 6:47am On Jul 04, 2013 |
The revolution should wait, We are yet to invite him Too busy are we With ethnic bickerings. The revolution cannot come. Till we are done Sucking our mother's tongue And see ourselves as one He stands on the hill, Overlooking the gate of the city With a message for us But we attend to domestic chores The last time he came, The poet lied. So did the preacher and the teacher But our fathers? They ran He could not speak to us, Our fear served many masters But he beckoned. Like roasted yam in palm oil He was caught and maimed Executed after jailed In a bid to delay judgment ........ Our judgment. Days are fast coming. Like a comet falling When tribe would be less secure And trinkets of religion gone. Let the revolution wait. Let's fill our plates. The baptist is not here. Why worry about the messiah? 1 Like |
