By Odimegwu Onwumere

 

I am not at all hindered

but my mind is hindered

by the mess of democracy

we have come to endure.

 

Robbers of good governance

say that democracy is better

than the best military regime.

 

They are oblivious to the fact

that they are worse

than the supposed

bad military men.

 

I see:

Fiefdoms,

Nepotisms,

Anarchists,

Unitarianism,

Authoritarianism,

Capitalists,

Bourgeoisies,

Marxists,

Leninists…

 

And these

continue to hinder my mind

in a democracy

but not me.
