Things Fall Apart Poem by Naseeru Taneemu Annuree

Things Fall Apart



T ake a careful look at what is happening in our country
H ave not you see a sign that THINGS FALL APART?
I n every side you turn to you saw people suffering
N o wonder Chinua Achebe is right when he refused to be honoured out of people's sufferings
G overnment waging war against the governed!
S hould we give them more chances or should we rise and say enough is enough?

F ire thrown on us by the devil!
T he same devil sang that he feels our pains
L ies upon lies which is unbelieveable
L ies enough to cost our continue existence as a nation!

A nd yet the devil pretends to be serving our interests
P ower belong to the people and people must wake up to this reality
A word they said is enough for the wise
R eadily available should we be after the truth
T ruth is bitter but it completely set free those who follow it!

¤NTA! !
