Benue

 

The ground bleed tears 
The earth stand at ease 
The Night peeps in shock 
Man\'s heartlessness carries 
Triplet

 

The earth sobs 
The soil shivers 
Man\'s sarr\'bu stages a show 
The harmless innocent
The helpless aged, caught in a web

 

Sleeping in silent 
The killers feast their 
thirsty swords ⚔️ in
its enemies flesh. 

 

Burning bodies 
suffocate the sinless souls 
The headless, stiffens in silence 
As its breath fizzles with the hellish haze 

 

Elephant 🐘, Elephants, Camouflage!
It is for lives and property duty calls
I do not blame you 
But the haters of our country 

 

Vengeance or retaliation?
I do not know. 
Our ears swallows this sour deed
Attracting the Eagle\'s 🦅 
land, landing on the yam basket 

 

How long will this continue?

When will tabling on peace not 

birth fresh flow of blood?

Both Yams and cattle is of 

Man to lord on

A peaceful plate is possible.
