Welcome To Juba. Poem by Tony Adah
Welcome To Juba.
I have listened to the radio
And flipped the pages of newspapers
I have seen Taban Lo Lyong
With shreds of cotton bolls
On his chin talking
About his new country.
The battle has been won
As it has also been lost
I am ashamed of the war
And the counting of the dead
Today the strings of war
May bring some gory sights
But tomorrow Juba is your day.
