Abdulhafeez Oyewole Poet Haiku

A Little Reflection

The notorious gang
Clearly stated in the news
Is now declared Saint

And a pretty ****
Infamous to everyone
Is now called Mary

This political thug
Who attacked lives' belongings
Is now made the judge

In a time like this
Where vices are made virtues 
What's that all about

Debbie Guzzi May 20, 2013 at 4:56 PM It's about power and what one has to do to get it, and how some people can't live without elevating themselves even at the cost of others. Light & Love Abdulhafeez Oyewole June 17, 2013 at 6:09 AM I admire your contribution Debbie. Thanks.
