Sometimes i wanna be left alone, just to converse with my inner soul,
Occasionally, i feel like closing my door from daybreak past Midday all the way to nightfall,
Listening to soft jazz music from the early 90’s, with popcorns aside in a bowl,
Eyes glued to my screen, following a wildlife program or the American basketball,
I want to climb up to the pinnacle of our village hill,
Isolate myself from the hullabaloo of my kinsfolk,
To culminate there, with a coconut shell of Brazil,
Catching a glimpse of the reptile family as they chase each other on the rocks, ready to coke,
Take me to the banks of Luangwa river, i want to bond with the crocodiles,
Let me lie down on the soft grass, and watch the sun as it illuminates the world,
Allow me to observe the hippos as they graze, are they jews or gentiles?
Let me listen to the gushing sound of water as it navigates to the oceans, curled,
Take me to either Amboseli or Chobe national parks in Africa,
I want to listen to the trumpeting sound of the mighty Elephants,
To be independent, free from slavery like Ghana’s capital Accra,
Show me the game wardens, I’m definitely ready to assist as an adjutant!
