SOVEREIGNTY

Sovereignty is not achieved by neglecting successionist attacks
It is the sure reign of certainty
…through facts justified by reasoning, oiled by needs of a nation for a collective good
Where are the thinking caps?

II
A fire which threatens to burn down a house
Needs no considerational space
…even if it is cooking to fill stomachs
Its ashes needs to be scooped and thrown into the sea
Lest
…some hidden coals metamorphose into flames
Aided by cruel winds and a darkness
To do worse than its previous
Where are the national resolution heads?

III
When you call for unity
In the absolute rule of misconceptions disunity
Chaos laughs like a drunken mad dog
Seeing the flight of a frog

IV
Some are calling for African Unity
As existing nations are breaking apart
To form bonds which further divide
…our collective cause
May practicality rain from the sky of seriousness!

III
Let’s concentrate on rooting out the need bugged and or
Power drunk neighbours stuck in the bar of senselessness
Because unity is not a fruit
…which grows on rotting peace

IV
In human hay burning by tribal fires
Let’s clamp down on the fires
Before other development options become possible
