Pyrate Poem by Olorode Olorunleke

Pyrate



Watch, watch capon ojo is on the road.
In the ray of unrest have your days been enjoyed.
This joy that reigns to the crucifixion of the future
heroes.
Cry, cry is their blood everyday like Abel's.
Is this the purpose for this foundation laid?
Soyinka and others activism have they laid you,
To give us peace and a secure future yet our
cannibals you've become.
Great handwriting to the politicians you're rather our
saviours to be.
Setting ambush against us in the like of world war.
Your gyrate is a threat to life rather be it our safe
aboard.
Pyrate, why have you turned yourself to sword of
sorrow on us,
And instruments of happiness to our enemies and
family?
Our joy abound at your birth but you've made us
breastless parents,
Designing yourself to putting us into aged nakedness.
The gods of the land are begging you to be harmslet.
Laying your hands on breeding our country Microsoft,
Rather making us food to termites.
Let unity be created in your diversities to become our Mandela,
That our breast will have its milk for everlasting joy.
