DANA 153

Gone with the wind,

Gone with the wind,

The rich,

Their last,

Didn't know it would be,

Where lies he,

Who's been struggling,

Just to make ends meet?

She who's been worried,

About tieing the knot?

Those who owned houses,

In Abuja and in the states?

Oh! Oooooh! Oooooooooh!

Those who leaving wives and children at home,

Went to Abuja with their girlfriends,

To enjoy the weekend?

Chei!

That little boy,

Who just for a movie,

Went to a neighbour's house?

Those bombed,

In their most-spiritual-mode,

In church?

Gone are friends and fathers,

No more are mothers and children,

Brothers and sisters,

All are now but lost,

Memories intermittently writhed,

Free from grief's grasp,

Only to give life,

To a thousand and one moments,

Shared with the departed,

Just like SOSOLISO and BELLVIEW,

Before it,

The crash,

A price paid for negligence.
