Drums Of Alkebulan Titans Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDE AFGHI JJKLM NAOPD QRSTU

Living in a day darknessA
Under prolonged bondageB
That never cease to elapseC
Knees of scavengers against our pigmentD
Chocking our necks like George FloydE
-
Above their subtle war on usA
Yet the voice of Shaka ZuluF
Calls me to march for milesG
To appease his spiritH
Throwing invisible spears to free my folksI
-
On the veranda of optimismJ
I lay my eye on resurrection of LumumbaJ
Whose body died not his soulK
As we still see his tree growingL
So sad Mfumu and Zinduna refuse the fruitM
-
Century by centuryN
Still crafting cold missiles against usA
Failing to end us allO
Taking us for a villageP
Knowing not we are a continentD
-
Fiercely we fight and procreateQ
Map Draft and BuildR
Just to win and raising the flagS
For we are another version of mankindT
Drums of Alkebulan Titans shall forever beatU
