Iruwa has killed my death (poem)
I will not die
Iruwa has killed my death
buried her in my grave
Isu will not see
my nakedness
Iruwa has taken the burden
he has married my wife
out to concerned relatives
and left my twelve children
at the mouth of my grave
with ragged memories
of things forgotten
no! death will not see
my corpse
I will not die again
I have claimed my death
from the lion?s mouth!
