African Shape
African shape is a problem
stable question mark it is
Madagascar, the misplaced dot
asks questions with no answers
writes puzzles with no solutions
West Africa, a big head
the north, charcoal stove
the south cats, dogs together
the east, sticky chairs
the horn, terror and piracy
waist, rape capital of the world
what a question mark shape!
what a Pandora box!
Perhaps grade up the shape
to answer Africa’s questions
