The cool evening brings out preys
In large and small sizes
The Hyennas can tolerate the jaguars
Where there is a feast of Jackals
The offerings of the night are lucious
Susceptible and tasty to predators
Masters of nightfall
Whose weapon is strangulation
In the jungle
Tactics and strategy is key
The trap is set as position is taken
The weaklings becomes an offering
A blood offering the gods accepts willingly
As the sun rises in the savanah
The masters of the night retreat
Allowing for a new set of predators
Masters of deception i call them
As election approaches
The predators are at it again
Like an Owl they scan the polity
Taking advantage of the gullible
If you must see a new day
A new Africa
We must work as one
Together as a herd of Buffalo
To defend our rights
Our Africa
Cowards stay back and criticize
Neglecting the power of one vote
Shelly Simond won in Virgina by a vote
C.P. Joshi lost in India by a vote
Should you decide to vote right
Who knows what could be lurking
Maybe history will be kind
That our Moses may emerge
In the midst of all these uncertainties
Darkeness and light are going to war
In unison light will prevail
Even if these mysterious people lies in wait
Together we are strong
Let us do what is right
For surely, victoria ascerta
Maybe history will be kind That our Moses may emerge In the midst of all these uncertainties.. come let us do it together.. we shall win. fine poem on a call to unite. tony

As election approaches The predators are at it again Like an Owl they scan the polity Taking advantage of the gullible..how you cleverly jump from your thoughts of nature to real life and politics. thank u dear poet friend. tony
