Political Madness

Political madness
Bitter as the honey,
Slower than the speed of light;
Words were thrown just like the chairs,
Vipers displaying just for a few Naira notes,
Shouts of motion and counter motion filled the air.

The loud mouths have a free day,
Pictures and images were displayed to show this
Sassy drama which wins a nomination for an Oscar,
The spectators watch with grieve and heavy hearts,
While the actors laugh and smile with impunity,
Insanity reigns whether in upper room or lower room.
