The Real Criminals Of Baguda
Baguda isn’t NigeriaAllegory unlike Gregory
Masterminds of treachery
Sorcerers and their cohorts
To snuff out elixir of life
Conjure poverty and violence
Hoping our ignorance
Keep us blindfolded
Tenfold by ten
The real Criminals
Seen in the anals
Anals of struggle for power
They lack compassion and empathy
Depraved odious sympathy
Make no mistake
They’re determined like mines
Planted in fields of nothingness
They drive vans
Vans of bullion for billion
They live like Ahab in Dubai
Heed the call of nationhood
Vote, not like Robin hood
Vote like a monk
Monk in a hood
