God Will Sure Bring Back Our Girls ~ Chain Haiku On Terrorrism, Inspired By The "Bring Back Our Girls" Outcry For The Chibok Girls In Nigeria.
Nick Adegwe-Oshomah 1959 (Iyerekhu)
We are at crossroads
All has gone topsy-turvy
Evil whips our lands
The world's gone bananas
Terrorrism here and there
Devils reign unrestrained.
Our lands are now caged
In thunders of booming guns
And bombs vomiting deaths
Our lands drowns daily
With cries of innocent souls
Slaughtered in mad rage
Kidnapped virgins weep
In BOKO's hellish dens of doom
Dug deep in SAMBISA.
But God will sure fight
When HIS appointed time comes
TO BRING BACK OUR GIRLS.
