Tribute To Oku Onuora
The poet's pen, like a sword,
cuts through unconsciousness.
Each word, each line in sync
cutting and burning in a pot of dub,
dubbed wise the poetry of justice.
Dubbing in freedom,
dubbing out lies and oppression.
Dub, dub, dubwise!
Metaphysical ink cannot be contained:
It is life, giving hope to the captives
and the socially wounded.
It needs no affirmation
or confirmation.
It just drips dub, dub, dubwise!
Heed the poet's calling:
He cannot lie,
he cannot die,
he exorcises
systematic racism,
anemic capitalism and fascism
with dub, dub, dubwise!
