Beings of mischief

Afamefuna Samuel 2008 (Otukpo)

Strident follows
Filled with pillories
Show not yet thy pompous acts again
For if this time done, might turn on thee
Thy characters showeth us not lead
Thinking always the wrong to do
With much concern and courage, filled with acrimony
The goodwill always forfeit
Relentless in carrying out your deeds black
Indistinct beings
It shall soon in the soonest
Dawn on thee thy deeds are evil.
