The presence of many people is on earth
but their minds are farfetched
harnessed by the infusion of fears,
wars and rumours of wars
by those whose strength is to war
with the strongest factories of munitions
but not the strongest faithful mind
of making peace.
Who will probe them?

Who will tell them
the wrongs they have committed
against mankind and nations:
the dissidents who were arrogant
to the World Community's admonition
not to experiment their digital munitions
in their strongest factory of munitions
in the cities of the countries
that preferred to be left
with their civilization
though primordial!

Who will remind them
of the wailings of adults and children
untimely nipped to join their ancestors
from the graves of Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq,
and in other nations
their peoples never wanted to cough,
or to criticize,
for the fear of not experiencing
what happened in Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq.

Who will remind them
that their actions in the Alakuba world
have infused fear
in the minds of the world's peoples
they introduced Democracy to
but themselves never obeyed
the Due Process commanded
by the World Community
not to engage in the greedy war
of searching for weapon of mass destruction
but they destroyed the parts of the world?

Since their invasion into Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq;
the world sits like a lonelier girl,
abandoned like the wreckages
of African shrines.

Their joy is the peril of the world:
oil blood trade in Nigeria, in Iraq, in Iran,
conflict for blood diamond in Africa is rife.
And all who don't subscribe to their policies
are marked with their show of shame
before the glaring eyes of the world
who wouldn't frown nor smile.
