Nigerian Highway Scene
www.facebook.com/WRRPoetry [Nigerian Highway Scene]
It was a gathering of different thoughts
The collusion of various minds
“You need to follow the gospel”
Is the voice of one
“Get this for your health”
Is for the other

What is happening to this nation?
Ask a patriotic citizen
Says the other, “It is our leaders”
“She can never be well again”
The rest hypothesise

But lonely was I in their midst
Wedged between two, playing the game of love
They prefer to enjoy the present
I think of the future
What will it bring forth?

The question remains unanswered
Because no one knows!
