My Lacrimosus Lamentatio

My Lacrimosus Lamentatio

What cheer! Tell me

Wouldn’t wearily wear me from franchise

What is the fate of exspectatio

In a curia with bad conspiratio?

What cheer! Tell me

Is of the snake and crocodile;

The water-lord made me eat Eba with onions

Online also is its land companion.

What cheer! Tell me

Would stop me from dashing oral lashes

When my monthly sweats are but Ezekiel’s bone,

Absolutely exsanguis regardless its armature.

What cheer! Tell me

Should lock me up in hope

When even they are so glee

When with their sweetness bitterness can cope!

What cheer! Tell me

Is in my country Nigeria

When the illuminating sun is glowing black

And brothers are becoming murderers.

I say what cheer

Is in Niger Area?

When Lugard’s ideas are out of guard

And the bald heads are christened BAD.

What cheer! Tell me what cheer

Would wholly holy hold me

From ejecting her in mind and body,

Taedere me tragoedia!
