Shades And Shapes Poem by segun Johnson Ozique

Shades And Shapes



In drove they throng in search for hope
Arrived, welcomed by lies and falsehood
Permanence by the dichotomy of shades
Conjoined by basic matching necessities
Souls made pitiable by rhythmic denials
Unfortunates condemned to sweat that
The rich be dry or wash that same clean:
Even the city’s earth are patched un-alike
The outer poor in permanent dark shade
Inner side dwelling of the rich alive alight
As outer is polluted freshening the inner:
Hail new phase axing African urbanization
