We Cannot Change Poem by Sayeed Abubakar

We cannot change the world until we are
Changed. Let us change our old outlook. Let us
Remove the fear from our minds that does not
Let us face the powerful Ozymandias.

We cry because we do not know how to
Laugh. We die because we do not know how
To live. Living means fighting against the
One-eyed Ozymandias who snatches our

Freedom, who destroys our peace, who makes our
Life hell with torture and injustice, who
Builds his palace with our bones, skulls and blood.
We will die though we do not like. Why do

We die then like a coward? Let us die
To live and to change the world with courage.
