I wonder As you ponder Why crabs walk sideways Having eyes on top of their heads Talker leads me on to wisdom Yet this one is a loser Stranded on Juffureh Awaiting to be shipped to a far away land To serve by force a master Who must be obeyed That way colour got lost And this we all toast That way culture got mired Again we moan as in despaired Yet the train rolls on forever Leading us to newer Terrains with Talker in tow There we shall grow old Where we shall disperse As the wild "cappock" seeds do After the explosion triggered by Hammattan For the next generation to sprout Then we get to be leaders and the led Sharing the commonwealth Where we can Let there be no saying that we Are aliens For truly Talker led us He did not lead us astray Where we now sat We can claim as a right to be Let no one move us away Except where we willed so to do
