By Chidi Anthony Opara
From the ocean named pacific,
The big croco crawled
To the red sea
And bestrode the sea,
Baring a grisly dentition.
The red sea quaked
And became more reddened.
The hard thorny back
Of the croco
Intermittently show ashore
In a show of strength,
Daring
The raised hammer to hit
And be hammered.
The pregnant croco
Readied herself to deliver
War mongering monsters.
The world readied self
For another big war,
The third big war.
