Africa, Dont Fail Somalia
When a man fights his wife
She either retaliates or perseveres
But that solves not the strife.
Hearing the chaotic cries
Neighbors either intervene
Or are lulled to sleep by the lullaby.
Will Africa rise up to the occasion
To solve the Somali crisis?
Or it hasn’t resolved its own impotence.
And do remember Africa,
Somalia is not a neighbor’s house
But one of your own child.
The peace of your own home Africa,
As long as the battering in Somalia continues
Is unjustified and rightly threatened.
