In Memory Of Aluu Killing Victims: Two Wrongs Don't Make A Right. by amberacious: 12:31pm On Oct 05, 2013 |
TWO WRONGS DON'T MAKE A RIGHT Let the people of Aluu community hear this Tell this to Emeka, Lucky and Chris And to everyone who knows what this is Vengeance is of God and justice is his When we saw the tyres we feared this could be the end In our fears we searched among the crowd for just a friend To promise that if our lives were spared, our ways we will mend That henceforth from our hard earned labour we will spend But our sun has set and it was too late The unforgiving crowd has already sealed our fate And no matter how hard we knocked at their mercy's gate None seemed to care, like they were bewitched to hate To those who were there you know what you saw How we were tortured by the cruellest jaws and claws How we were offered as meal to death so raw How anger, unforgiveness, vengeance tampered with the law They called us names and labelled us terror They made us face the ugliest ordeal of horror But between the killer and the thief who commits the greater error People of Aluu reflect on this as you look into your mirror - amberacious poems 1 Like |
