National Failure Poem by Samuel Francis Leumas

National Failure



Happy independence day!
A shameful noise of jubilation
embarrassed by the democratic wilderness thrown into
and the obnoxious machinery of the state
oh! Fifty years of darkness
a federal republic of thug junta
acrimonious statesmen like nicholo machieveli.
The leviathan that gave us disaster
democratic-dictatorship on the stormy sea of politics
might is right and exploration of exploitation
sordid emblem of a sad republic
shame to our glorious flag flying and crying
oh! Jaga jaga who gave u this power which u used to torment the proletariats?
Traumatized citizen escape to the field of servitude
political pirates on the ship sailing to national treasure
and they lack political prowess for the mission.
We are all bemoaning our pitied democracy
weaken by the dovish preaching to bow to poverty.
The cabal that took power as their right
using d instrumentality of a quasi-constitution
arrogance on high places of sacred political alter
unjust gods of disgraced democracy.
Do we wait in vain?
Our hope and pride still intact?
A nation we wake up to embrace and love with our heart
and always consenting to the norms of republicanism.
Happy independence day!
Borrowing sorrow from abroad
democracy is not fiefdom or a
monarchy
politician who never appreciate d norms of democracy
wallowing in the past doctrine and going blindly
forgotten essence of democracy.
Happy independence day!
Grooving to the heart of hades.
Destruction goes to those who reject instruction
drinking the wine of blood of lowly men
spending the sweat of suffering's product
who are in servitude of colonial master's instrumentality
happy independence day of fools.
