Let All Hell Break ... I shall not cower!
Yared Huluf 22/10/19
Let All hell break loose anhedonic and confused To places unbeknown vamoose Only to agonize and ruth I shall not accept, I refuse a dictator's douceur
to spy and military serve.
A dictator’s douceur To accept I refuse! The earth shakes in tremors Its abdomen rapture wide open Boulders running down the mountains As if they are in a race To bottomless precipice Crashing each other to pieces. I refuse a dictator’s term of peace! Honey coated trice entice I refuse!
Le buildings be reduced to rubbles No facet standing whole But I shall stand tall In cri de Coeur I shall not bawl
Let argillaceous diluvial flood awash The face of the earth nonchalantly an assault inflicted Daunting all the creatures beneath, that breath, Their time has come to cease. I shall not be perturbed And my soul disturbed.
I have a mind to noodle I shall never be a fool And turn to Isayas’s poodle Whimsically pushed and pulled I refuse!! Let the sea devour With its mighty power As I crossover The cursed boarder I shall never cower To this salient murder Nor to a dictator’s roar And blazoned parol Pulled alive or cadaver, From the depth of cold water.
Let the treacherous sand Bury me alive as I trudge or stand I shall never cower To the smugglers’ torture Human organs dealer. I shall never pine To align with a bovine And toe the line; With my eyes folded blind.
And let the volcano erupt Heaven’s tranquility abruptly disrupt The brontides heard From afar and near Eardrums couldn’t bear Nothing could hide Its high ride, Enveloping the sky With miasmic tides, That showers back To earth as a magma pie Anything in contact only to fry I shall not cry Even if my body gets awry
All these biblical threats, Be as they are septic Are less of a menace Compare to Procrustean Amhara chauvinists; Who are raring to swallow All other tribes into their visceral shallow Of what they call Unitary hallow As in the past to flex their domineering elbows That had given them an edge to glow Over others they managed to pulverize To dust to blow, Rendering it much easier to control Callow, With their self respect at all time low.
This I shall never allow In the name of those buried below I shall not flinch even an inch I shall not permit a retreat even a bit To a cheat who connives to pull the strings In a broad daylight So as to flourish at expenses of the ill-treated; operose labour and sweat. I shall not fear Even if my eyes are laden with tears.
Oh no! I shall not permit, The Amharas masquerade up and down The street, In conniption fits Kydooling ዘራፍ skimble-skamble Brandishing the sword in trance Flaunting their allegiance To the rule of dominance. I shall never allow bogus alliance My voice to silence And keep me prisoner in my own place Of residence. I shall not retreat a bit Such a furphy to beat, Nor shall I be reduced to a cucurbit With no means to stand on my feet. To fight the fight!!
