Indeed,
no matter if I am unpragmatic,
life is a paradox:
there is a time
...
We, the heads of state and government, hereby
Establish the African Eclipsed Community
In conformity with the ultimate aims
Of the charter of the African Unsoundness
...
The Political God-Father Is Gone
Indeed,
no matter if I am unpragmatic,
life is a paradox:
there is a time
when the victor surrenders
to the vanquished
and, may be, prowess is a size-less robe.
Perhaps,
in real life,
those whose success
is in the bullet
their defeat is in it too
and, possibly, power is a formless chair.
