 </div><blockquote><p><em>(Of a seven-year-old boy allegedly burnt to death by angry mob in Lagos-Nigeria in November, 2016; for allegedly stealing ‘Garri’… Of Homosexuality, Of Poverty, Of Recession, Of Corruption)</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Heavy feet stamping hard -Stampeding helpless souls<br>
Soles of darkness, stepping on the eyes of needles<br>
Porcupines, in this place, sleep on our souls as bed-covers…<br>
These souls ask, “Since when has death been the recompense of poverty?”<br>
And men, did nothing about it. (Shior!)</p>
<p>In a time of recession; Drought, and stern penury rock the nations<br>
The destiny of a greenland lay on the shoulder of an aged man<br>
Heavens spill blood – Enchantments and divinations against Israel –<br>
the people of God; Hearts quake, trembles<br>
that this wizard would restore Justice, barn corruption, measure the nation<br>
with his measuring rod… But cattles are wild beasts<br>
I ask, “Since when have snails been king in the assembly of men?”<br>
And men, did nothing about it. (Shior!)</p>
<p>Adam’s seed is, at last… Dead… Death… Hell… Sheol<br>
Grave in the womb, uterus of Eve<br>
Man over man, under man, inside man… but Adam had no boyfriend<br>
Sodom is a vulgar tone, but Gomorrah was named<br>
after the daughters of this place and Sodom, their sons…<br>
I ask, “Since when has man been drawn from man – A helper fit?”<br>
And men, did nothing about it. (Shior!)</p>
<p>Mother’s stall – got burnt, our hope took a stunt<br>
Father – a bus clerk, We sleep on rail- tracks<br>
Little Jack – hungry, Mockery – Father’s bus got stuck<br>
What is the law that I shall not take into my palms<br>
the ordinance of the gods? But they burnt my soul…<br>
Porcupines in this place sleep on our souls as bed-covers…<br>
Vengeance! My soul cries out, “Since when<br>
has death been the recompense of poverty?”<br>
And men, did nothing about it. (Shior!)</p>
<p>This is the End of Discussion: that divinity has showered stupidity<br>
upon humanity… How humanity has suffered rancidity<br>
Be ye drunk to stupor but not with wine<br>
But of an outpour of folly with a touch of ‘ternity…<br>
Stealing is surnamed theft and embezzlement – corruption<br>
Theft ways heavier, Why?<br>
Since when! has poverty become a sin?<br>
And men, did nothing about it. (Shior!)</p>
<p>Nothing, is as interesting as spectating over a set of people<br>
with the same psycho-disorder… end of discussion…</p>
