What will happen to somalia come this august

Recommended Posts

Like Robert Frost: I always entertain great hopes. *

*

And then

*

This Nietzsche caveat comes immediately to mind

*

When I think of our

*

Sad & silly

*

Inane & Insane

*

Self-inflicted Somali Sorrows:

*

Hope is the worst of evils for it prolongs the torments of man.

*

Along with this Camus caveat not so far behind: *

*

He who despairs of the human condition is a coward

*

But he who has hope for it is a fool.

*

But I like the best this Ben Franklin quote:

*

He that lives upon Hope dies farting.

*

It does seem to me now

*

That we Somalis are slowly but surely dying farting!

*

It does seem to me now

*

That all Somalis live now

*

In that storied Somali town called

*

Dhuso Mareb:

*

The town where you can’t help but die farting!

*

Not long ago

*

The British

*

The Americans

*

And the usual Somali Empty Suits:

*

Somali morticians

*

Posing

*

As Somali politicians

*

Met

*

In London

*

In hype

*

In hoopla

*

Promising

*

The Moon & the Millennium

*

To the Somali nation

Come this August!

*

I am sure

*

That what the British will deliver

*

Come this coming August

*

Will be nothing but the usual

*

British Platitudes & Beatitudes

*

Which are according to James Joyce:

*

Beer & beef

*

Business & bibles

*

Bulldogs & battleships

*

Buggery & bishops.

*

I am also sure

*

That what the Americans will deliver

*

Come this coming August

*

Will be nothing but the usual

*

American platitudes & Beatitudes

*

Which are according to Hajji Togane:

*

Drones & Despair

Obama & Abomination

*

Budweiser & Bullshit

*

Hillory& Harlotry

*

Meles & Musevani

*

Mahiga & Meshuggenah

*

I am also sure

*

That what the Somalis will deliver

*

Come this coming August

*

Will be the usual Somali platitudes & Beatitudes

*

Which are according to Hajji Togane:

*

Qabil & Qore: clan & carnage

*

Qab & Qaad: Pride & Kat

*

Qurun & Qamro: Corruption & Booze

*

Qaylo & Qalalaasso: *Shrieking & Pandemonium

*

If you always do

*

What you always did

*

You will always get

*

What you always got!

Indeed Somalia

*

And

*

NOT Ireland,

*

Is now

*

That old sow

*

That daily feasts upon her own farrow.

 

Mohamud Siad Togane
