Here's for Flight 103 - Lockerbie."

Three In a Row
I have made my mind,...I have made my decision.
I will going to find,...My old dear vision.
I have been so blind,...Until I watched the television.
To see Tunisia becoming,...A free pigeon.
Egypt too,...And now Libya is the legend....

Tanka Too
Tanka

NATO…is 
A mean military machine 
Looking for a war 
It found one in Libya 
A monster’s sweet taste of blood 

Tanka 

Hurricane Irene 
Poured rain on Manhattan 
The world press aghast 
A coast guard shack damaged 
U.S. under siege again...

We, Conjurers
We, the conjurers 

The USA wants Venezuela
And the worlds` press follow suit
demanding an undemocratic coup.
We have been here before
we remember the vilifying of Iraq 
and Libya those two counties were lied about
before being invaded and occupied.
Our compliance with this crime is staggering
and do nothing for peace in the world....

Lamia
Beautiful Lamia
Queen of Libya
Lover of Zeus
Rival of Hera

Beautiful Lamia
Became a mother
Loved by Zeus
Despised by Hera

Wife of Zeus
The jealous Hera
Murdered the children
Of Beautiful Lamia

Driven insane by grief
Beautiful Lamia 
Became an ugly
Child devourer

Hera became
A vengeful b***h
Lamia became
A blood sucking witch...

Tell Me About Your Sojourn
they told you how rich and happy they were
they were for your ears;
they know you are greedy
your family was in chaos;
you can't live in a kiosk
via Libya; you found yourself in Italy
Tell me about it;
did you not show love to dogs?
Oya come home
come and show off your wealth
throw them in the air;
let your people give you big names;
but tell no one about your shame....

Mama Africa
Mama Africa

All they say is you are uncivilized, using policies to publicly undress you
From Lesotho to Libya, Mali to Malawi, Zambia and Zimbawe
Raping justice and reaping where and what they sowed not!
I cry when they call you "dark"
Coz you are so bright, your sons and daughters beaming with strength
Africa, I call you MAMA, for your breasts are full enough for all your children to suckle!...

Let the World Stop Libya Slave Trade
let the world stop Libya
slave trade was off the 
old age 

it was in the time 
of our bitter history


I thought we live in 
a new age 

I thought the 21st century
was a time of freedom

yet in north Africa 
there in libya  black
Africans slavery continues

will the world be quite 
and pretend not to see

this calamity need be 
stop 
so I urge the world 
Iet the world stop Libya slave trade...

Nato Over Libya
NATO over Libya

They know the way
where is your servant, they asked? 
Drowned in a moot, he told tales about us
the story was the veracity
Our pornography was private.
You cannot open a tin of sardines
thinking it is olive flavoured.
They wanted the power the old dictator had
The one who gave them free education.
Our revolution was not new but greed.
We were laughed at, so hurtful
in our hands became a failed state....

Kaddafi
You lived a king but died a slave;
May your body be food for fish;
May the Libyans dance on your grave;
May your soul be the devil's dish.

You showed no remorse to your victims;
May we give you undue respect;
May we forgive your atrocious whims;
May we use this moment to reflect.

Your removal may be no beauty;
May we rejoice in your demise;
May we not forget your cruelty;
May we see Libya on the rise.

The life of a dictator;
Is the death of a traitor....

Enough, In the Name of Libya
Your children are dying
Minute after minute
Their bodies lifeless
How much more will you take
This time, it has reached your door
Scream for them, for your very being
Let your voices be heard,
For blood has been filling the earth
Mud has now covered your children’s flesh
Cover your eyes no more,
Let your voices be heard
As your hearts die,
With each soul taken
Bury your dead, and pray
Raise your voices, and say “no more”
There is nothing left now
Pray for them and for you...
