White Number From Black Mamba Poem by Edward Kofi Louis

Venomous elapid snake! !
Black Mamba,
Genus Dendroaspis;
Large!
Agile,
A mile away;
Seeing,
Black Mamba! ! !
A very poisonous snake.
Lives in caves,
Lives on trees,
In Africa! ! ! ! ! !
Black Mamba,
Venomous elapid snake;
A very poisonous snake,
Living in Africa.

My mind,
Living with the peace of my mind;
Joy in my heart! !
In Africa;
All along the line,
In my Hometown.

The muse of my Village,
The muse of Africa!
Living in peace with my mind;
Through the narrow path,
Through the forest!
Through the thick forest,
Through the forest of my Village.

Nature's glory!
Natural;
Nature's view,
Nature's light,
Nature's love;
Views of life;
Through my Village in West Africa;
With the muse of the colours of creation.

The romance of nature,
The fragrance of life,
The aroma of the truth! !
Nature,
Natural,
Living in Africa;
White number from Black Mamba!
The muse of a snake,
Venomous elapid snake,
A very poisonous snake,
Facing the ways of life,
With the muse of the thick forest in Africa.
