Poetry by Gamey Ayim
The emergency roll call is a call from nature
Recipients run like a hare to attend to the call
Bowels filled to the brim gather at her feet to offload
Loads in the bowels are brought to her bosom in order not to explode
They squat to dial, squeeze to call and sweat to clear and clean
Freedom smiles at the recipients when they hung up
On and off calls of nature is a necessary evil
Only understood by the natural telephony maker
