THE PRESIDENT`S VISIT

By Tikum Mbah Azonga

No birds chirped
No serpents hissed
No toads croaked
No horses brayed.

But everyone including the Commissioner
Clamored for a garland
Then an empty altar bowl
And cowrie beads without the dames
All of that
Just to make the loudest noise for the president.
