MY VILLAGE


In a village called Poverty

In a state called Hunger

In a country called Corruption

There I live


The north side

Of my village is bounded by

Insecurity village

While the south side is bounded by

Unemployment village


My village is ruled by

An awesome and fearsome fellow

A character called

Chief Bad Leadership


As an administrator

With whips and guns

He rules us

Pauperizing and traumatizing us

Lest we have the courage

To challenge his leadership


As a physician

Our youths he experiments on

Constantly altering their brain composition

Making of them creatures

Whose thoughts and actions

Are worse than mere animals’


Because of this, you see

Our youths are often into

All forms of vice and crime

While the elders watch

To the detriment of my village

Our village

Where we all live

PS: The form of leadership we run in this country has succeeded in producing all types of deviant characters. People are only thinking of crimes they can commit to enrich themselves. Until the Christians, whom God has appointed as elders and watchmen over the city do something about it through intercession and evangelism, the situation will only continue to get worse
