Our Leaders Have Gone Mad Again

POETRY IFEDAYO


They are not here
Though we still see them around
They have moved on
They have let go
They are dead
But they still breath
Dead, dead living
They're living
Living, living dead
They have stepped into the threshold
From here to nether
Loose and lost
They spend time and use space 
In lunatic extravagance
They run, run beyond 
Behind time and space
They have eyes
But no more can see us
Like stray dog
They can't hear our thundering voices
Help, help!!
Our Leaders have gone mad again!!!
