Mrs. D
To the dreadful Mrs. D,
thin-faced, bespectacled calamity
handing down an injustice to the despondent Wiwa
where are you now, at sixty, hobbled and aging
do you sleep and dream of comfort or peace
or is your mind tormented by a plethora of evil that bedeviled your career
did Nemesis cut you short like the abomination you are,
or did God in his knowledge grant you a life of luxury and peace you denied others;
To the dreadful Mrs D, a product of the Nigerian corruption
that has festered and mutated into something unfeasible
the deadened conscience of the heartless medics
the injustice of the Justices
the nonchalance of the police
the brute force of the Lekki shooters
The Nigerian has metamorphosed into something worse than evil
and I dread to age in a society of the soulless
where living is negotiated
Oh Mrs D, who feathered her nest,
and destroyed the tree
you are part of the evil that has born fruit
and destroys everyone its shadow falls upon
