What Has Happened To Mitchel, Mother? Poem by John Chizoba Vincent

Where is mitchel, mother?
What has happened to mitchel, mother?
There is nothing in his room except an ancient
book and by its side a written note.
All his toys and balls gone in an exile.

Why is he not among us during morning prayers?
And everyone seems to be sad
Speaking through our spirits.
Why is his bed disarranged,
the mattress on the ground howling
His wardrobe opened and no one bothered?

Why do you shake your head, papa?
And why is mama wailing in the dark?
someone should tell me what has happened to mitchel
Before i go mad for the sake of our love.
You said its nothing serious at all but
I heard him roared in the night
Frightened like a frog chased by the snake.

Was it a nightmare that i saw them taken him away?
A man in white gown, black skin and hair cut in a fashionable manner.
His note read thus' i am gone, goodbye Vincent'
Is mitchel really died? is mitchel gone for ever mother?
Please bring him back to me, mother.

We both have a dream to conquer corruption and injustice
Among humans especially the politicians.
And now he is gone before the new rain,
to an unknown land.

Why do you and papa cry as if no other option,
Get mitchel for me mother and
Never allow him to belong to the freezer
He is too handsome for that.
So death could be so unkind and cruel to mitchel
The handsome lad, a dream weaver of all time.
