False Embrace Poem by Babatunde Aremu

False Embrace

Rating: 5.0


Jackals cuddle joyously
At the sight of each other
Lions sport together uninhibited
They neither prey
Nor slaughter each other
Even chickens does not perk on itself
But I have seen one thing
Man, who claimed God's image
Is blind to Godly love.
Man pounces on each other
Constantly he wars against himself
He relishes in discords and terrors
He engages in fights and wars
He is skilful in balkanising,
Scrambling, oppression and discrimination
He sets nation against nation
Yet, he pretends to love
Embracing with sharp thorny hands
Kissing with poisonous arrows
All I see is false embrace
There is no more genuine embrace
