Bad death that was!
Of
an innocent soul
Nipped from the bud too
soon
On false claims of
possessing a fake gun
Killed on broad daylight
in the streets
O, the perils of being a
civilian!
Note:
This poem was inspired by a video doing the rounds in Youtube called "BONOKO". It is a statement given by an innocent bystander who witnesses the police shoot an innocent person and "wekelea" him a "bonoko" ( a fake gun). It is a serious social commentary of extrajudicial killings told in a subtle, hilarious, satirical and playful manner.
