Lassa Poems | Examples


Bleeding Heart

BLEEDING HEART
 Whose blood is this that waste
 Like the water from a mistaken
 Open tap?
 Oh Romeo of our ages!
 Why hath this befallen me?
_
 You vow to be my ever lover
 And i place you in my heart
 Forever and ever
 I put you in a place where
 You will not shiver
 But your heartless action caused
 Me Lassa fever
 _
 I put you in a place where 
 blood flows
 Thinking you will enhance
 My psychological growth
 But you appear a predatory
 Night Owl
 And pierced my heart with
 A poisonous Arrow
_
 Now my heart bleed of betrayal
 Betrayal of such a damsel
 Seems peculier
 Peculiar in the sense of immemorial
 Whose fault is it that am dying
 As Romeo the lover.

A Far Cry From Nigeria

Help! 
Help!!
Help!!!
Save our souls!
We are dying of lassa disease
And they told us it is a lesson to learn.
We are been shut up by boko Haram
And they smile on their white chairs and 
Told us that we don't need to be alive.



Help for we are dying of pains in Nigeria,
Help for we are melting in Africa without help;
Purged eyes
Excusing 
Itself
Because
No
One it ready
To tell us to come.




Our legs are no more ours
Totality has made us insane,
Help!!
Help!!
Help!!!
Let's ring the bell together to the world
Of Ebola that ravenge us in a sweet morning
Eyes opened
With
A 
Wings that 
Hurt.



We are men of honour but our honour is gone
Drained with a special liquid that gladden their soul.
Help,
Love
And kiss
Us 
Because 
We have seen
Pains
Beckoning on us.



Our education is dead!!
Between our legs they kicked it dead;
Our homes are destroyed in the broad day light
We are not yet given the reasons for the destruction.
Help!
Help!!
Help us!!!
For we
Are dying in silent
This is the cry from a failed country.

Obsolescent parasites; gathering as dae's whirlwind swirling about: kyklos...
His child's decaying flesh: Insecticide's, repelling incubus bloodlines ? Fa chancre
Paris green tremulous their queue; lassa fever scarab's, 'croix de guerre schizein phren.
