ROMEO IS DEAD,

This road you 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.
