Poem Title:
Poem
A swarm of mosquitoes there was Of different ethnic origin, language and culture. Aedes, anopheles, culex and others Some fragile, some agile and some avaricious, The anopheles was the most fragile but avaricious. This human, they set eyes on, She was in possession of everything they needed And in want of nothing. So because of her possessions, they attacked her And she being weak, could do nothing to defend herself. And so with their proboscis, they sucked her blood, For many a year, she was continuously being sucked. As she was being sucked, so was she being bitten, Some bites were gentle, others, excruciating. But with God on her side, she stood on her feet. The wind of change gently blew some mosquitoes away Others clung tight, for they were desperate But the human started agitating for her freedom So the remaining mosquitoes reluctantly left. But alas!!!! She has been sucked semi dry She started labouring to regain herself back Just as the lazy anopheles mosquitoe came back As the other mosquitoes went and continued their lives, The anopheles discovered it couldn’t survive alone So it came back through lies and deceit to suck more blood And from that same human, it continued sucking blood, It will come as if to make peace Between the body parts; but that’s a pretext. It truly came for blood and more blood The anopheles mosquitoe knows it can’t live without the blood But it can never accept that fact Because of its dirty pride. It is the laziest of all the mosquitoes Because it depends solely on the human If the human doesn’t open her eyes And with zeal, fight back, The anopheles will suck her with no mercy. NO HUMAN, NO ANOPHELES MOSQUITOE NO AFRICA, NO FRANCE
