The zebra

Have mentored us,

The mentality of the zebra

We have imbibed.

We move

In zebra like movement.

Like zombies

We march behind the lead zebra

Mimicking all manners

Of the lead zebra.

The aircraft took off

With us as passengers,

The pilot is a crook.

The aircraft flew backwards

And landed in 1993,

We disembarked.

Prompted by the pilot,

We poured on the streets

Screaming

"We want interim government"!

The would be despots

Are making merry

Because of our demand.
