The Web Poetry Corner - Clarius Ugwuoha - Cry Of The Harambee

Cry Of The Harambee

by

Clarius Ugwuoha

Written in 1997 when the Harambee Stars lost to the Super Eagles of Nigeria
One goal
Two
And again!

Three tons of goals
Weighing like lead
On our minds

Is it fair, God?
We'd beat
Syli Stars
And toured
The Western world!

We'd trained
All day
To beat
Our opponent neat!

Now,
We've fallen
In a heap
Our faces
Heavy with shame

Our Country's name
We've dragged
Like a luggage
In the mud

We've lost
All we can

God,It's not fair
merciful day,
Hide us!

NEXT?
Why don't you look at Calling Station Taxis
