From Sucking Blood To Soaking With Blood(Revised) Poem by Alem Hailu Gabre Kristos

From Sucking Blood To Soaking With Blood(Revised)



Corrupt, we were
Sucking citizens' blood dry
Devoid a conscience
That asks us "Why? "

As they have
Unseated us
From power,
When democracy is mentioned
Since it is our bent to cower
As a retaliatory measure,
We shall make
Them take with their blood
A shower.

We shall shift
From sucking blood
To soakingour hands
With blood,
Which we love to see
Flowing like a flood.
For a corrupt leading party embezzling a poor country and threatening citizens withthe arsenal it bought by tax-collected money.
