Muhammad Abdullahi Poet ABC

Power of the Tongue

All 
your 
Armies
All 
your 
fighters
All 
your 
gangs 
and 
All 
your 
soldier.

I 
see 
a 
boy 
standing,  
all 
alone 
with 
a 
stone
soldiers 
standing 
with 
guns
Armies 
with 
guns 
as 
well 
facing 
the 
boy..

In 
his 
eyes, 
i 
see 
the 
sun,
in 
his 
smile, 
i 
see 
the 
moon.
And 
i 
wonder, 
i 
only 
wonder. 
Who 
is 
weak
and 
who 
is 
strong.
Who 
is 
right 
and
 who 
is 
wrong. 
And 
wish, 
i 
only 
wish 
that
the 
truth 
has 
a 
TONGUE...
