ENDTIME BLUES


BY


OBODODIMMA OHA 


It is endtime, my friend 

You can no longer sneeze or cough

If you do that

At a community meeting

Everybody would run away 

Wetin e carry?

COVID? 

E suppose die now! 

There's fire on the mountain 

Run run run


Coughing and sneezing should have

Their own police

To monitor transgressions!

 

No coughing allowed here 

No sneezing allowed there 

Says COVID police 

Transgressors and terrorists beware

Be aware.
