''LIGHTMANIA''


A poem written by Sylva Uba

(Super talented Sylva)



Darkness looms

The city of oil

Giant of Africa
Lurking in the shadows

It is a city of black nights

When shall the third eye
See the craft man's light?
Empty promises swims in the basket

The green, white, green
Drumming the Golden Age
With charcoal and candle

So I humbly ask

When shall the third eye
See the craft man's light?
