Nigeria, Patches Or Incisions? Poem by Dare Onadele

Nigeria, Patches Or Incisions?

Rating: 4.8


Awake, Nigeria!
It's broad daylight
To consider the parts you unite.

Oh! See parts with injuries
Deterring your giant might.
We'll run for surgeries
To disjoint these infected parts.

Ah! What if it's cancerous
That's spread before we're apart?
This to young and old is riddle,
No one left to be idle.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Nigeria in recent times is being heated up politically. Some are even saying we should break. Won't these same confronting issues be taken to our disjointed units? Food for thought for all. We had better watch it.

The giant need to rise up. The physcians must do their best to heal the cancer. Good write, poet.
