Take Them Away... Poem by John Ugolo Umah

Take Them Away...



All these soigne bloke with killing machines
enthral by seeing blood flowing
kill any life in front of them brazenly
they scoff peace with bitterness like demons
feigning peace to the other nations
they force themselves to bed with our ladies
yet they are called chaste

now the people mutiny in pains
as they are guarded by sentries
we need our impunity
we want aegis and peace

they have become blotto with blood
we want a chink of love and peace
resonantly, our snivel grow
stop being wily and ado
we are harmless
give us our society back
all we need is where to lay head
what to eat and drink...
we need haven

give us love for that reason we live
give us hope for tomorrow is a better day
give us peace for we all need peace.
