Back To Square One Poem by Alem Hailu Gabre Kristos
Back To Square One
That ethnic group,
A tyrant,
Was not a democrat!
On our right
For long it had
Indifferently squat,
Our throat, mercilessly it
Was about to cut.
Now scenario's reversed
The rein of power
We have gripped,
Democracy we have introduced!
To the follies
It made in its heyday
It has to pay
Come on, on it
Swing a stone
The dark days have gone!
