Gruesome, gory happenings in the land,
One day, one dismembered body,
Young boy, teenage girl, old woman,
Just any unlucky fellow would do;
So, as the Yuletide rolls in,
And the lust for money fills the air,
Maddened fiends take to dark alley ways,
To make a killing to pleasure their desires,
This fetish is about a crazed notion,
That offering cadaver to the devil,
Brings instant riches and wealth,
Often promoted by lazy myths and indolent legends;
No one is safe,
Anymore than we truly were,
But the season triples in the letting of blood,
Enriched by psychopaths running amok;
Everyone prays here,
Like they have any other choice,
Their safety is in the hand of GOD,
As security agencies continue in perpetual failure.
Ritualistic murders of people have risen to all time highs this period in Nigeria. Daily the people are confronted by pictures of people beheaded and body parts taken for whatever reasons. It is unfortunate that the Nigeria Police only rushes to parade suspects and never taken painstaking time to actua;;y investigate reasons behind these unholy acts. Christmas and New Year celebrations are around the corner and many will go to evil lengths to just to make an impression. SAD.
