THE BLOOD OF THE SUN AND THE BLIND HUMANITY(POEM)
By Paul Ihechi Alagba,
For Family Writers.
Who is blind----
A darkened mind?
A sightless eyes?
Or an eye that sees but pretends it cannot see?
You won't see the blood,
Cos you've been blinded by the oil bliss;
Selfishness has your eyes gloomed
And You no longer can see the tears;
The devil's deception has pierced your eyes
Now you have eyes but cannot see.
They lay at your feet,
So helpless they forever be;
Their bodies, as stiffened as a rock
Their cloths, soaked with their blood,
Oh! The bottomless pits-
dug by barbaric bullets and shelling armoury
Cuts across their lifeless bodies.
They were forced to live for nothing,
They chose to cry out for freedom,
Only to be silenced by genocide;
Yet humanity turned a blind eye,
Walked over their carcasses
And journeyed to dine with their killers.
IS IT WICKEDNESS,HYPOCRISY OR FEAR?
Who is deaf---
The ear that cannot hear,
Or the ear that has refused to hear?
That voice that cries so loud
The voice that penetrates the cloud
The voice that got the wicked trembling
And the conspirators running.
A nightmare to the oppressors.
A sleepless night to those that really crave for liberty,freedom and justice,
The voice crying for liberation
The voice of the oppressed.
Why have you chosen not to hear?
WICKEDNESS,HYPOCRISY OR FEAR?
Who is dumb----
A mouth that cannot speak,
A mouth that is afraid to speak,
Or a mouth dumbfounded by racism?
Silence breeds a monumental monster of evil,
Those who are mute in the face of evil
are the same as the doers of evil.
Evil persist when good men do nothing.
Evil multiplies when good men see evil and say nothing.
The defenders of humanity,
are now fueling the oppression and subjugation of humanity.
Who will rise and speak?
Where is the voice of the voiceless?
Who can say the dreaded truth?
Why on earth should silence shield genocide?
IS IT NOT WICKEDNESS,HYPOCRISY AND FEAR?
FREE BIAFRA, SAVE HUMANITY.
