Solomon Ochwo-Oburu Poet Quatrain

I Doubt It In My Heart

I doubt it in my heart
Humanitarian aid to Africa
is it not animal-tarian aid,
to subdue Africa?

I doubt it in my heart
Humanitarian aid
is it not Animal-tarian aid,
to energize tormentors?

I doubt it in my heart
Humanitarian aid
is it not animal-tarian aid
to roll tears of blood?

I doubt it in my heart
why not permanent solutions?
for everlasting freedom and liberty,
to build true Africa?

I doubt it in my heart
Humanitarian aid
could be animal-tarian aid
to chain Africa forever!
