(From Darwin’s Theory of Evolution: A satire)
By: Adewara Joses
All citizens of a nation are to grow and develop
Through proper delivery of power by capable leaders
But here “change” came in and collided with a hurricane,
Citizens’ hearts evolve into hard stones,
They grow biceps and triceps
Through daily hustle, to survive.
Thus, Theory of Revolution, survival of the fittest, states
That body parts, blood pressures and boiling points of citizens change overtime,
As a result of “change” echoing from the sirens of politicians
Boys become thugs
Voices become caged, and then, cracked
So we become poets, to rant silently with our pens
