Death

The ominous wind

That blows from the north

Collector of women's wrapper

Exposing their dangling breast

To tears

.

Death

The mythic Eagle

That hovers in the sky

Abnegator of mother's cries

Scaring off children like “ojuju”

In the dark

.

Death

The shadowed beast

Giver of tears

Lurking in the dark

Laying ambush for innocent souls

.

Death

A blessing to the old

A cause to the young

Messager of light

Servant of the dark

He hunts at night!

Feasts by the day
