The Elegy: Raila Amolo Odinga Poem by Aloo Denish Obiero

The titan has departed.
The legend has entered the hall of heroes.
The enigma has joined the pantheon of immortals.

Kenya's torchbearer of democracy has crossed over.
Africa's voice of conscience has become one with eternity.
The world's statesman has slipped the surly bonds of earth.

His voice is stilled, yet his dream roars still.
His body is silent, yet his vision breathes on.

Rest in Power, Agwambo.
