Poems from Ugboduma Marcus
I hear the shrilling cry of the Chibok girls,
Abducted in the dead of the night ,
From their beds taken captive,
Forced hurriedly into...
Many years came,
Which has now gone lame,
A boy, no more I was,
For it all, I verily saw.
How without moderation,
The elections were...
I cautioned him well
But to the wind it fell
Gliding through life
On the very fast lane
You kept asking God
Your sins to forgive
For only...
That bang that bereft,
Our peaceful night,
Of darkly, cloudy, dewy plight,
Tougher like thunder,
In destructive asunder,
Delusion in...
Nigeria My Nigeria!
Land of tribal mixture,
Sixty years over,
I still behold your picture,
Your independence,
In glory and grandeur....
