Africa Poem by Oyehan Opeyemi Akinkunmi

Africa



Oh Africa, Africa
second-large chamber
advanced ocean site
unmatched mainland
substructure,
high-ranking Asia filch lead.

The lot's sanctuary
spring of stately elites
-repainting gloom to glow.
Mother of her pistil-bearing acolyte
-corporal wealthy states within.

Province of fertility
land of augmentation
magnet of all sides
pregnant on infecund soil
foundation of all plus.

Breed to none; nurse to the bone
home of the ancillary foeman
latitude for the settlers
vessel for the globe.
Black open-shelter,
place of the swarthy freeman.

Truth in our way
our fatherland,
watering seeds to fruit
our people.
