Neighing Poem by Edward Kofi Louis

Neighing



A lion from the forest,
Rest, forest!
A wolf from the desert,
Dessert, desert!
To watch over then by putting your eyes on them,
Because, anyone who goes out on their way will be torn into pieces.

Transgressions!
Backsliding,
The ways of mankind;
Like the muse of the lion and the wolf waiting for a prey.
Riff, riffle!
But, anyone who goes out on the way of the lion will be torn into pieces.

Illegal lust!
With each man neighing after his neighbour's wife;
Like well-fed horses in the morning,
However, the wages of sin is death.
Rifle, riffle!
But, anyone who goes out on the way of the wolf will be torn into pieces.
