BLOOD

I belong to a place characterized by scattered short trees, shrubs and grasses
Where you smell blood everywhere
I see Sexes bleed and their souls gently drains
Blood dripping,
Dripping from jack-knifes, cutlasses and swords
Men in chaos
Children, men and women running for their lives
I see blood fill the empty space on the floor
It comes out warm buh can run cold and dry
Men and women, Rich and poor
Their hands soaked, cuddling and kissing blood
I see hatred and hostility present
I see resentment and vengeance
Blood became the host
Love slowly went into extinction and annihilated
I became a Wonderer Perhaps, if one day i
would find love and bargain in exchange
I see religion, politics and ethnicity poison the children of Adam and Eve into being monsters
Nay!!! if you look into the truth
We're drowned in our whimsical desires, hypocrisy and selfishness

I see burnt houses
I see roasted sexes
Husband and wife separated
Children becoming orphans after each chaos in campaigns and pulls
Donkey of years struggling to survive
From pregnancy to birth
Growing up to toddler
Adolescent into Adulthood
Why will you choose to become guerrilla or to somewhat a tyrant
whose people's blood ain't save from you?
We hail Nigeria
The green white green
We lost the green, where is the peace?
We lost the white, where is the green?
Vengeance and resentment are qualities of animality
Enough of violence!!!
Stop cuddling blood
We are Nigerian
We are the green white green
We are peaceful
We don't fight
We are wealthy
Stop vandalism
We are the green white green
BLOOD ain't our AGENCY
