We Answered Our Prayers

Ibraheem Uthman | poetry

Where’s he?

We’ve beaten drums 

To his height 

And our tongues were noose 

To his ears

We’ve hammered our fingers 

Into saws

Saws, to peel our fate

 

He pressed closer to our hearts

And we pelt him to 

The bane of woods

And nothingness would 

Abode our tambours 

 

Ego on our palms

We’ve befouled purity

And now we’re trapped in 

Our fingernails

Ibraheem Uthman is a poet and the author of the book; Mind Of a Bard. He is a member of the Hill-Top Creative Art Foundation and he is writing from Minna, Niger State, Nigeria.
