Ojs Campaign Poem by David Aoloch Bion

OJS campaign
the SPLA stormers’ offensive code
The SPLA stormers fed and drunk well
They jokingly comment:
“Let’s test our blood in drinking
Let’s test our flesh in eating
Let’s feed and drink well
To be fatty meat of vultures and wild ones”

The stormers moved into the jungle
With the maxim: “In life we lose, in death we win”
In jungle, their mattress – the grasses
Their pillows – the stones

To confront the MM wine drunken enemy
Whose mattress was fine wool
Pillow was fine cotton
And pocket full of money
And Lorries full of food

The stormers lit over desert cocaine
Intoxicated bearded men like the sun shines over trees
Set ablaze, the beard of men as thunderstorm
Set ablaze, the hut until the enemy disappeared in smoke



Note OJS means Operation Jungle Storm
SPLA means Sudan people liberation army
