Are you the mirror
That reflects evil
Of a veiled vile
Heart,
Or are you the mirror
That reflects the face
Of the lean tired
Heart though honest?
O mirror
You only reflects
Today and not
Tomorrow...
By Aminu Muhammad Hussain

Note: the poem tries to express remorse
or dismay on our country Nigeria where almost
everything is left to chance without proper
planning.
