We, The Poets, We Are Protesters (Poem)

[Chidi Anthony Opara, FIIM, CDOA]

By Chidi Anthony Opara 

All day,

All night,

We, the poets, we protest.

We protest 

All week,

All year,

We, the poets, we are protesters.

We, the poets,

We seek 

Neither protest partners,

Nor protest sponsors.

We, the poets,

We have no empty pockets to fill,

We have no opponents to witch-hunt,

We crave not

For the potentates' positions 

Or their mouthwatering morsels.

We, the poets, we protest 

"Cause this domain is dirty 

Made dirty

By descendants of the devil.

We, the poets,

We are protesters,

We are the mouthpieces 

Of the Supreme Deity.
