Speak Up Poem by Alibo Terna Timothy

Speak Up



Our heart is brutally cracked
as we raise our fist
Back against the wall
It's normal to bounce back with all wits.
We want to live not just exist,
So we speak up against this holocaust-
against bad governance and injustice
And now we pay the price in rest in peace!
Vulture's in brocade rather see us down and broken
the regular trademark of AP_Coven.
But we'll stay strong and unbreakable
Trusting that God will fight our battle.
