Segregations we suffer And suffer, To delights of our captors. Lines of discriminations They draw, Between we and them, Between here and Abuja. Between ghetto and squalor, And splendour of paradise. Let me lie On my hard wooden bed And relive That dream about Abuja, Where roads paved With smooth asphalts crisscross, And well kept parks Beacon passersby for rest, Where our captors Dwell in comfort, Comfort reminiscent of paradise. Let me rebuke Here and now, Guardian spirits of this ghetto For their silence, In our collective captivity.
