Demons Also Cry

DEMONS ALSO CRY Beyond the crave for death All I sought was first, Weep-not my newborn soul Where fireflies shine lighter than the lamps And fishes swam faster than their homes Like trampled troubled tramps, Then, demons also cry. Groans and moans of pain, Down they roam like rain Memories sparked with flashes of feisty flare For all that is left is nothing but darkness Piercing the thread of our bond That even angels dare not dare Then, demons also cry Here, days brimmed with sadness To miscarriage of nights darkness That even birds glide backward And when asked why, we say, its nature to nurture Conscience lye frozen in muss, has God punished us? Que sera, sera and all go wayward, Then, demons are also crying By Tutuola michael
