Election! Election!
Time for woe is come,
Time for war is come.
Come on, man! Make your decision!
...

Flowers profess their loyalty to life
Decay does also albeit to death
Both constantly kindling fires in Man's hearth
Flowers in gentle glows that remind us of goodness to grow
...

TELL THEM, ACHEBE TELL THEM

Tell them, Achebe tell them
That with bullets they may kill our bodies
...

We felt it, but we ignored
The wind as it blew: dry? Yes.Cold?
Perish the thought! Still we felt it.
We saw it. In the coif of a bison's coat
...

Come in quoth he. Ye weary poor devils
What is mine is yours he quipped with hands a-flarin'
T'ward his barrage of demon drink.His eye smiling
that Succubus hint gleaming
...

They refuse to let me in.
Say its normal to be left out
That I should not protest e'en when no way I see.
Because I think different
...

Once I was free; now I am a slave
Now I am a coward, but once I was brave.
Once my counsel was sought afar and near
Now ‘midst Moon's army I march; in madness and rant and rave.
...

And he talks; and I listen
O how this ever goes on!
Quiet sometimes, others loud as train whistles
Why not let in peace my wretched soul?
...
