I am Nigeria
I am that brackish water that erodes the delta
I am Nigeria
I am that green and white flag that sways fervently in ill-winds
I am Nigeria
I am that lustrous rock that has lost its hardness and mica
I am Nigeria
I am that eagle that has lost the might of its beak and claws
I am Nigeria
I am that teardrop on the chins of my daughters
I am Nigeria
I am that mildew that wallows in the dreary thorns
I am Nigeria
I am that night that has got its stars bashed
I am Nigeria
I am that sun that has lost its shine and pedestal
I am Nigeria
