The voice of Corona virus
I was in china
like a wingless bird
when you began to prepare to host me
i never told you i would like to fly your way,did i?
you left your several albatrosses and made provisions for my coming
As you would an August visitor
you set aside some millions of money for my reeption in my honour,didn't you?
You gave me wings by wetting my appetite now i have flown onto your shores
Landing in Eko(Lagos)
To walk on the red carpet you laid for me
into your cities and countrysides
Why do you panic,oh Giant host of mine?
Let the partu begin
Adorn the tables with human wines and fleshy foods
Enough to satiate my preying throat
I will return 'nwayorly'the way i came.....
Your numbers who think of fasting and praying
to keep me at bay may go on
But in my nation of origin
my folk know not the meaning of prayer
As you do only the potency of action
Oga Giant of the black race
you may deny me some pints of blood of your citizens
By borrowing some leaves from my people
