POETRY
The World Is Going To An End
βPOEM by Abubakar Shehu Omotosho
(Translated from Yoruba)
The wind blows but cannot fly dust,
Rock is as soft as pap,
Elephant is like a mouse,
Lion begs for food,
The sky is as flat as pedestrian way,
Grasses turn houses,
Crocodile swallows wisdom and idea,
Child cries mother cheers up,
Jellyfish now lives in a thick forest,
Lice stands to bear Γ¬rΓ³kΓ²[1] tree,
Chicken dreams to ingest fox,
Bedbug heralds to suck sharkβs blood,
Songbird starts singing sad songs.
β¦.
(Self-translation from Yoruba)
