Have you ever seen
a dwarfed giraffe with stunted legs?
What is a giraffe without length?

What is a Lion without tooth?
Or a bat trapped in daylight?

Have you ever seen
a Slim bear with a very lean waist?
What is a bear without weight?

What is a lie without truth
or the night without a promise of daybreak?

Have you ever met
a righteous politician with truth in his *****
what is a politician without a foul breath?

What is life without ups and down
Or a Henry without his darling Nkiru?
