Don't Shortchange Me Poem by Babatunde Aremu

Don't Shortchange Me



Due to my absence for awhile
You colluded
To apportion me a little portion.
Because I was not in the vicinity
You hastily conspired
To re-allocate my rightful place
Now that I am back
You are all pretending to be innocent
The wind is now blown
The hidden secret is laid bare
I am available to take my place
