MY STAY IN NIGERIA

Never being this decorated
Never being this re-visited
Till I came to Nigeria
The giant of Africa

Never being this widely x-rayed
Never being this beautifully accompanied
Till I came to Nigeria
The giant of Africa

Always in cage
Among words' luggage
Till I came to Nigeria
The giant of Africa

What a wonderful place
To reveal my masked face

But my pain
What is the gain
Of making me an offer
To the unrepentant sinner
Of my being granted
To the impenitent wanted
Of giving me out
To men who aren't tired of the bout
