Chibok Captured Again. Poem by Tony Adah

It's a heart rending thing
And my heart is breaking
Into bits in my hands
The air is hazy
With a cloud of death
There's doubt
If anything can be done
Now that there's a stampede
To win by hook or crook
The selection that is called election.

Chibok's halcyon days are gone
And the girls the bigots
Of religion abducted are still missing
Now Chibok is captured again
Its eyes seeing
The crimson colour of death.
