Alexander K Opicho
(Eldoret, Kenya;aopicho@yahoo.com)


Who will write for you poems of the vanquished?
For history is a blend of anecdotes of the conqueror
The conquered ones are the wrong side of civilization
Hence why their civilization is never murdered
But in villainous feat of folly often commits ******,
Thus, you are too wrong my brethren
Thus, you are too late my sisteren
For, why did you accept to be
In your present realm, of despair
In which you wallow in the mire
Of poverty and serfdom ?
Brother, you are too late for so sure
No one sings the poetry of vanquished minions
Perhaps with wonkish tincture of glory
Stand up and sing them yourself.
