Competent Smile Poem by Haruna Garba

Acquired new only a year ago
Handled by rough drivers
Here is it now so beat up
No technician can reinstate her


Bought new only a year ago
Maintenance deficient
Here is it now a so exhausted
No mechanic can restore her

Assimilated new only a year ago
Upkeep bereft
Here is it now so bushed
No engineer can refurbish her

No technician can revive her
Wearing smiles of sure capability
They can't resist beckoning to you
These mechanics of the land
