Intense lamentation, rendered in a solemn mood. Clear message with sober sentimentality. Profound. Deep from the heart. It's the type of work geniuses are made of! 

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you, Professor Wariboko, for sharing this tragic virtual storied poem. Oil pollution is a concerning issue for the Ijaw community and others. We must work towards a solution instead of just hoping for the best. Change starts with our efforts, as you did in the narrative.
