Cruel tax masters the stranger is here
Names to cease see the list does not end
He forcefully take anytime anywhere
Take away take away our best of friends
Lying in state
No more hate no hast no race
Curtain flung the open gate
Closed wounded eyes embrace
Fly away fly away
Not the beginning but not the end
Gather around chip tears and cry
Wonder away spirit to an unknown end
Over and ever to peace and rest
Come of age come of age
Once your cup is full drink it with dearest
Pass away pass away like an old adage
Remembered with a sigh and tears
Fall again fall again
Another night dark and dreary with fears
Cast away cast away all fetish gain
And hide your beloved under the glutton cave

George Egba
