Night Watch. - By Ugwu Erochukwu Shedrach

moloch- demons with goldhorns.
 filth.
sordid
hallucinations in this city's alley,
 with blind eyes. she is cold.
she is soft like silk.
she is fragile like china. she is a rose-
her head is buried in
her mind, she has howled
led at midnight.
she has conversed with the moon,
 bitten by hysterical teeths.
she has died in machine hearts. she
has been plucked unripe.
she is a girl.
she is human or do
you think otherwise?

The journey started well, ASUU keeps walking on eggshells but the federal government failed to make the dream of 2009 between the association and the highest cadre of government becomes a reality.     Due to this fact, ASUU walks on their talk as they say ‘no money no work’ and the government, in the same breathe, ‘no work no pay,’ so the battle begun since July first this year, continuing to rain up to this moment.
