#ENDSARSMEMORIAL: Hoodlum - A Peom by Ola Olawale

 Day 5 tributes


Hoodlum


No one is born Hoodlum

It is the creation of the state

No one is born a destitute

It is the creation of the state

Where is our commonwealth?

It is in the hands of the greedy few

In nature, there is abundance for all


For the greed, it is never enough

Their quest for more has no limit

Hundred heads for the work

One hand for the profit

A drop for hundred mouths

Shower for a few mouths

In between hoodlums are the birth


The race for survival begins

Every man for himself

Communal Love lost

Fish feeds on fish

Brotherhood


 lost its Place

Make it or die trying

Beat them or join them


That is the song

Song of sorrow

The State and all of us

Must rise to our communal duty

that every child is ours

and must be cared for

for everyone to have a night rest


Tell the state to educate them

and not to keep them as political tools

They deserve to have a name

like me and you

Any child can be a hoodlum

Any hoodlum can be a child

It is just a matter of privilege
