Bring Back Our Corruption Poem by John Chizoba Vincent

Bring back our corruption to us, it is
better than the righteousness we see now.
Situation here has turn sour and bitter,
Dollar rising, Naira falling, Poor men vomit
venom whilst the Rich craze all over the
street for food to feed their troubled stomach.
And the youths has no option than foreign land.


We have more of ants in the land than the
usual Elephant that crowd our street for fun.
No one is alone, thorns on the lips it is; whose
mouth is going to close without him screaming?
Find the solution to the problem not the person causing the problem, solution is our future hope.


Bring back our corruption, we need it back! !
It is better than the white hunger seen in the street,
Hunters hunting the haunting spare of illusion,
Jagabanized faces fashioned to kill our pride.
Bring back our corruption we pray thee our lord,
bring back our black heart and return the whites,
Silence isn't empty it is full of answers to questions.


Bring back the street light to light the street,
bring back the tomatoes from the cow's belly,
Bring back the tooth you took from the child! !
Bring back our corruption! Bring back our pride! !
It is better than the hardship that rape us daily.
We can still bank our heart in corruption than
The Horse of promises made in the blank cheque.


Here is distressed without corruption of old,
righteousness contradicts environmental right.
Let's journey with pleasure without been drained,
we've seen great evil without this arms of government seated at the right hand side of leaders.
We can keep treading in the paths of fools,
just hand over our corruption to us to keep,
it is better than the goodness we see here.
