Somalia is pregnant again
Deliverance, I pray
Purity, I pray.
I dream under the cover of night
I so wish for a Nod,
An agreement of a sort.

I envision a ladder to scale the wall
I envision a phrase:
It is Yes, we can scale this wall.

Somalia is pregnant again
I pray for the Big Bang
To deliver this child.

Somalia is pregnant again
I pray the Lord, I pray the Lord
Somalia is pregnant again,
O Lord! Is it Joy or the usual man-made Dose?

I pray for a Nod, an Agreement of a sort.
I dream of the mid morning's breeze
A truce: all fires, freeze!

I am keen for the scent of heaven,
I sigh,
I wait:
Multitudes have died from the waiting itself
And the firmament is heavy with travelers in transit
Children of the Earth in trials, in transit
Not knowing where to go,
What to do...Is it Heaven or Hell?
And Somalia is pregnant again...
