Jude Chukwuemeka Muoneke
Poet's note: This is a socio-economic poem. It mirrors the suffering of the poor masses in a hard economic situation. Its cautions the elite class to fear God in their dealings. The poor masses are suffering because the prices of commodities are very expensive. Things are getting worse day by day. The economy is biting hard and exploiting all. The poor masses are praying and hoping that things will get better soon.
