As you crow
One calling, others responding
Know hearts are different
And there exist the unfortunate
As the fortunate bounces around
II
There are fears like a little soft cotton wool
Lying gently without your air like crows
Now you blow and they wake
Rudely whisked to the unknown
Stirring pots of bravery like “banku ta”
In the dough marriage of Maize and Cassava
III
Pause and stop beating hearts so fast
Pause and let the fearful have time to relax
Pause and act like smooth gentlemen for once
You are nightmares to many
And the lovers of few
With voices daunting to many, nice to few
