The Wild Wild North

The rumbling and shovelling 
Pandemonium  and desecration
The killings and maiming of souls
Boko harambee, the harem of 
 murderers
The genie let loose, murder 
  incorporated,
Unlicensed to kill
It's the wild! wild!! North on
  the brink!

The north overrun 
The hounds on the run
The hunt only just began. 
Boko haram has taken the 
  center stage
The grave is filling, yet it takes
  more and more dead.
It's the Wild! Wild!! North on 
  the brink.
(Written on the 2nd May, 2015)
N.B. presently Boko haram, Killer herdsmen, bandits, kidnappers and others have overran Nigeria and overwhelming the Security forces.
