Juju Poem by Haruna Garba

Juju



Excised cat's eye rolled in soot
The ritual on a moonless night
Clad in black wrap is thy amulet
Then you go naught to evil sight

To bust ten Sodom apples use foot
The rite is done as clouds flash light
Your immunity is now safely tight
Trigger pulled yields repressed toot

Loin's mane, a little piece you lift
Snake's moulted skin pieceto fit
This is the stuff to really fumigate
Just to inspire awe against threat

Africa has got astonishing talent
Voodoo, juju and a host of the rest
You might think i am talking wet
But they certainly work alright
