ROMEO IS DEAD (Poem by ©Akinlade Oluwaseyifunmi Sky™ )

ROMEO IS DEAD,
------------
This road, you've walked before
Before January was betrothed to June.
This sea, you swam ashore
While it was yet closer to Earth.
.
You've heard this same story over and over again
More than the hooting honks of Lagos 'danfo' buses.
Like the police car sirens
You already know when it calls.
.
You've seen it all before
In the eyes of clones and real versions alike.
Interwoven twisted tales
Romeo is DEAD, and long gone.
