Advising Nigerians Outgoing President

To The Now-Pitied President 
No longer thought God-Sent 
The making of superb contacts
For entry into cleaner contracts 
Is a command to avoid patched-up pacts 
And-trust-me – costs you True Logisticians 
Besides Sincere Magicians;
If the packages are not to hit the rocks
Or more keys appear with stubborn locks;
“If truly thou seekest a final Turn Around
That shouldest not later sink underground…”

For stiff orders you might bark
And mighty millions earmark
But Glorified Brains the cracked
And Misjudging Misfits the backed,
Progress, sure, shall slack
And one begins to Loyalists sack
The Guys one once shook their hands drop
And their disarming salaries stop…

Now, you are rather The Outgoing
And faster thoughts won’t be flowing,
For so it goes with injury time
While Careless Clock continues to chime
But there really was an F. Kennedy,
After 100 Days, ready remedy…

So, while this Counseling Milk you suck,
I wish you A Suckling's Good Luck.
