I Saw This New Moon
i saw this new moon
just yesterday
beside this flooded hut
the niger has eaten
the homeland
'tis like a casualty
one of the good casualties
the casualties
the big bro saw
during our war
that war that led
to the skeleton-men
beside this now flooded hut
ah, we lost the hut
to the new fat river
yet
i saw this lean moon
