Mom's Recipe

I snatch your bag
you stuffed the box
Two stealing!
I cleared your vote
you chocked my voice
Two cheating!
You blocked my chops
I burnt your chaps
Two losing!

Now, why do you moan
and groan?
Is it for power that towers
or the lower who cower?
Is it for the length of strength
or the stench and wrench?
You tried your say - bad day
I have my say and way - swell day

Don't count ya gain
in others' pain
As our brothers' keepers, o' ripper
we'll save ya soul soonday
Don't count da gain
until the Blind Maiden swings
da final scale

Anyone who likes their mom must do well to remember how to win or lose in life. Watching my own country in the last twelve months reminds me of a million lines.

The key: remember the child of whom you are!

This is a warning and a well-wishing verse for Nigeria's ruling political party whose all-crucial gubernatorial primaries hold this weekend.
