Quiet Storm! by Adewale Sobowale

Like a tiger;
With quiet anger!
Stealthily and silently;
Till it’s timely!

Biding their time
with magazine smiles,
frustrated they are,
because they lack!

Land of plenty;
Many are thirsty,
masses kwashiorkored
since they lack nurture!

Oblivious of mass suffering,
few haves go partying!
Our Rome is burning,
powerful are fiddling!

Who’ll prevent quiet storm
from its snaky venom?
Solution very pedestrian:
Masses should dignity earn!
