ROAD TO 2023 - (running helter skelter) By Oletu Oghenenyore C.

ROAD TO 2023 - (running helter skelter)

like a chick, i crack undisturbed eggs
eggs laid by corrupt tummies 
i read of elements so disturbing 
and unbecoming
our oil and the other unformed coins
generate plenty balloon of mischief money
banks laundering off-channel 
i saw a very dark side of the story

less political stability 
unhealthy business environment 
well-serviced foreign debts on friendly cruise
contracts are safe when the lion 
appear weak, needing oversea friendship
the cabals are preparing a seal
to cover their created devil ahead of 2023
so Obi may not crack more eggs
hence the endless meetings
