Can We Write A Poem? Poem by John Chizoba Vincent

Can we write a poem of love?
Can we write a poem that we can't tell its story?
Can we become the fire of the pastors?
Can we write a poem of love' song which only women can sing the song not men?
Can we re-write the broken history with poetry?


Can we tell our past from our future with poems?
Can we make artistical money with poetry, man?
Can we dance and eat our soup with poetry in our throat?
Can we change the country with poetry of love?
Can we tell the moon of sadness of the jews with poetry?


The farmers are back from the baseless barns,
Can we take over the resort from them and write?
Can we deafen mother earth with our words?
I want to write like Wole and Niyi whose pens
Command the sky to cry out the pains of the injutice.
I want to write poems about Chimamanda Adichie,



Can I write poems about my home country
when my voice is recognised by the world?
Let's write poems and embrace nature's beauty!
Let's be massage to this lost age staged youths days,
Let's be the treasured flowered words of wisdom;
Let's write poems to this messed generation.


Can we just write poems and fall in love?
Can we tell the world we've arrived with poetry?
Can we visit Femi and Clarks to learn from them?
Can we just write and speak with our pen?
I am tired of sitting here doing nothing.
