Bring Back Our Gods Poem by Raimi Babatunde

Bring Back Our Gods



The temple of Justice
House of Lords and judges
The hope of the common man
Is justice really justice?
Especially in Africa
Or it is for the highest bidder?

"If you no get money"
Your case is different
Your case lacks merit
Not enough evidence
I laugh in Chinese
Is there judicial independence in Africa?

Let me even ask
Where is the god of thunder?
Where is the god of iron?
That worked very well for us
With them, the guilty is rewarded with death
"Abeg", bring back our gods

All in support say "Hi"
No need to ask if you don't
We serve gods of instant judgement
That sanity may return to Africa
The "Hi's" have it
Court! All rise!

Instant justice in a world of mediocrity and falsehood. Thanks for sharing.
