When the same breast nurses many mouths
From stomachs of greed and or promises
Milk evaporates and calls for the blood of the mother
Showcasing paleness of her body
Awo Yaa!
May this portion of yours change for the better!
II
This building which has seen the palms of many masons
And still suffers from foundational weakness
Due to stolen cement
Unbought stones
Unpurchased water
Which are all buried in the belly of pockets
Housing blood of the land
Is to be pitied
Awo Yaa!
May this portion of yours change for the better!
III
This vehicle whose driver and mate
Dwell on the monies of passengers
But do no servicing
Even as it creaks in painful destruction by the day
Rebelling here in concerns
There in embarrassment
Needs a different story
Before it breaks what it protects
Awo Yaa!
May this portion of yours change for the better!
