As the curtain of nightfall covers the earth
Mama Africa aborts yet another one
trapped in her canal of birth
a prodigious daughter or son
falls victim to the haunting curse.
God sheds raindrops which moisten her dry skin
he cries and stabs the sky with treacherous thunderbolts
his sun-lit smile swallowed by the darkness of Man
who has forsaken this lustrous, lovely land?
Her shape is that of a question mark
is that the reason she is misunderstood?
the color of war blended with the hue of poverty
A visual which surely saddens the senses
A disturbing sensation which beckons the big question…
What happened??
