FLUTE // Poem by Amusa Yusuf Owolabi

 

Let's tell our leaders

The nation is not moving forward


Let's tell our leaders

Yesterday promises are not fulfilled


Let's tell our leaders

They have lost focus


Let's tell our leaders

Every sector is at standstill


Let's tell our leaders

People are tired of lies as well as false promises


Let's tell our leaders

They lack ability to lead


Let's tell our leaders

The nation is bleeding


Let's tell our leaders

Comity of nations have turned our nation to a laughing stock


Let's tell our leaders

Shedding blood has become common currency


Let's tell our leaders

This pilot can not take us to the promised land
