USA Africa Dialogue Series - Hello! From Hades (Poem)

By Chidi Anthony Opara

 

Hello earth!

Hello humans!

Hello from Hades!

 

As it is on earth

So it is here in Hades;

Sin sanctum spread.

Sanctum

Soiled by souls sinful.

As it is in sin sanctum of earth

So it is in sin sanctum of Hades;

Mammon is mammoth,

Mammon is monarch.

 

Hate,

Hirelings of hate

Hum

Hymns of hate.

Slave merchants mingle

With mean-minded missions.

Pride

With jaunty steps saunter,

False prophets prophesy falsehood

And warriors of crooked causes

Wear weighty armours.

 

Hello earth!

Hello humans!

Hello from Hades!

As it is on earth

So it is here in Hades;

Souls

Stroll into sin sanctum

Unmindful

Of the jug of judgment.
