COMMUTERS AGONY

Like a mammoth being, white and blue
Boeing 377 of the masses
Beloved Zebra twin of the city
With two blue bands are round her white waist

Transversing the land, length and breath
A pendulum with deafening noise
Dugbe, Dugbe, Sango , Sango
Your boy chants, "mi o no change " up and down .

Great horse of commoners
Pleasurably painful their journey made
Your chant and fume the air the air pollute
Mi o no change, you cry up and down .

Your wheels, a pack of rubbers shreds
Worsened by bumps, lumps and pot holes
Backache, headache, neck pain, bequeathed your guests
Bonus for their patronage, enroute their homes .

Revolution the much awaited groom
Bewildy by your resolve to remain unchanged
Behold the newly arrived brides
Repent or regret your stagnant stance .
