This Independence Poem by Haruna Garba

The eyes became so scornful
Sobriety had utterly left them
Twin balls on future uncertain
Some legs walked across land
Furtively they gathered at spots
Later legs got crossed in planes
Mouths wanted words abroad
And it made the hurricane grow
Only to recede by freedom rain
But so what after the downpour?
Home tornado abruptly sprang up
In seven years, now tsunami it is
Ravaged is the portion pulled out
Famine and battles faring nonstop
Couldn't be the land's general wish
Only the wish of the few GENERALS
To be big fishes in that small pond
Is as how it is still in Southern Sudan
