Same Old Story Poem by Haruna Garba

I would rather be
a big fish in a small pond
to breach big and wag tail-
I am the shark!

I would rather be
a big fish in a small pond
to explode to the surface
and flourish my might.

I would rather be
a big fish in a small pond
to be diving up to the surface
in acrobatic styles.

I would rather be
but so would all underlings be
The same old story:
One of someone feeling great
despite the underlying snag.
