Emmanual Samuels Kpan Poem
The time is now
Beautiful mother/
I am deeply sorry/
The sea from your eyes/
Tells people more about/
The treatment you're given/
Mother you 've all /
all quantities of a woman/
You possess diamond/
gold, rubber, timber, Oil/
Natural resources 're all yours/
I thought money shines people/
Your color cannot be identified/
It can't be seen in day and at night/
You appear very old mother/
With all the money/
You can't build shelters/
For yourself up to now/
The farms had harvested/
Nothing to feed your children/
They tirelessly beg for food/
Mother stop the droplets/
In your eyes and address/
This concern of mine/
For how long 'll rainfall/
Who do you expect to baby you/
Who will listen to your cry/
Eons ago you're still weeping/
Mother darkness hangs over you/
Tears had given you nothing/
Block the river from flowing/
Dry it mother and stand up/
Bath with confident/
Rise up! Rise up! Rise up! /

Emmanual Samuels Kpan Poem
Poem title: " Unlearn what we learned"
By: Sankara/African Pen
our country was noisy with onslaught sounds/
deefening with gun astounds/
the smoke took over our nose/
and mouth like cigarette smoker
overexpose/
Every phenomena move in opposite/
we later borrowed chicken's brain/
we were obsessed by grain of rice/
we took cigarette and smoked/
our sisters and brothers folk/
The minds were carried away/
by our sisters' beauty/
Our emotions dominance them/
day couldn't wait for night time/
we forcibly ejaculate day and night/
our own eggs were damaged by us/
Respect melted into ice/
ant, insect were tossed off/
the country was flooded/
with tears and unhappiness/
the country's flag colors changed/
white to red/
red changed into breathless animals/
Blue varied to fly /
sitting on lifeless bodies/
streets and brushes kept/
our luggages /
rain welcomed us with wet clothes/
mosquitos and roaches were our neighbors/
Malaria and triggerman kept us/
in perpetual silence/
food cut off speech with stomach/
mom and dad laid down their heads/
in the pool of blood/
rain pulled down from my eyes/
I left alone! I left alone!/
we learned to rudely approach/
forcibly make our little sisters/
wife materials before time/
we careless when the worst/
things are been done/
no respect for each other/
a lot we picked up/
fire ?? was ceased but we still/
live with our lessons/
the society is of no savvy/
statecraft thieving/
poverty embrace our people/
young people dreams to ministers/
directors, doctors, altered into/
zogos, riders and wrongdoers/
they hold their dreams with tears/
the country speedily took reverse gear /
the state is weeping/
State needs transformation/
Unlearn what we learned/

Emmanual Samuels Kpan Poem
LOVE
What creates it?......
How did you choose me?...
You worry me,why?
U thinking stress my mind/why?.
U're powerful than nature,who're u?.
U empty sleep in my eyes,how?..
So u make me break my rules?..
Tears cleans my clothes,why me?..
The hole is vicious isn't so?......
U there still direct my car,why?
I was betrayed many times, right?..
Why still encourage me?...
I gave out my money....
My car....
My happiness.....
My life....
I still laugh with tears.....
No peace of mind .....
After all the sacrifices...
is bitter kindly disconnect us.....
