The World Has Gone Bunkers ~ A Haiku On Terrorism Inspired By The "Bring Back Our Girls" Saga.
Nick Adegwe-Oshomah 1959 (Iyerekhu)
We are at crossroads
All has gone topsy-turvy
The world's gone bunkers
The world's gone bunkers
Terrorism here and there
Devils reign unrestrained
Our lands are now caged
In thunders of booming guns
And blood of innocents.
Kidnapped virgins weep
In BOKO's hellish dens of doom
Deep in SAMBISA.
But God will sure fight
When His appointed time comes
TO BRING BACK OUR GIRLS
