SKELETONS THAT WAVE GOODBYE

(A poem on the present situation in Nigeria)

By Ifemesia Iferenta (Furious Frank)

emilokan squats

and squeezes with ease

the very life

out of endangered skeletons

that rattle without synchrony

timidly aspiring

to humanhood claims

skeletons rattle across

the streets of chagrin

- skeletons that cringe from liberating laughters

skeletons that wear wizened masks

they deign to call “human faces”

yet the noose tightens

and tortures the fortitude

that now ebbs into a groan

squeezing out droplets of blood

that form little puddles

of muffled protests

at the calloused feet of emilokan

and many startled skeletons

wave goodbye

at the thresholds of eternity

and with sighs that seem to say

“it is finished, it is finished
