We are building the first Nigerian powered up whale community account on steemit, we are investors who'll be the difference and make the difference. We want to power up and build our steem power, so starting today the @genesis-project investors totaling eleven in number, contributing 200 steem each monthly to help build the first whale community account to assist Nigeria, have dedicated themselves towards building the Nigerian community and becoming a game changer.

Who are we?

We are investors and writers combined to form the ultimate knockout. Who are the investors sacrificing the 200 steem each monthly?

Who are the writers?

All the sbd earned will be powered up

The future is a tattered flag
Fluttering aghast in the unbeknownst wind
At the behest of the anemoi mischief,certainly rescinds
Taking up hopes and dreams and mirth in its raucous grip.

The requiems,are times slow dirge
For the yet to be path, lined with tombs
Of humanity,and beauty and other bones in its rancid catacombs
Who were murdered by today, never to see tomorrow

Today, they never see beyond
Simple minds, in state and in court
In the war, for their rotund bellies they bravely fought
But for they future,they never thought as she rotted away

Even the future slept one careless night
Let her beauty be mired by the past and his knight
Looted, and ransacked like our trampled minds
When we slept and allowed old foes decide our fate.

This is just beautiful. Your metaphors and choice of words fit in perfectly with the context.

Even the future slept one careless night

Wow :o. I hope this project produces poems as beautiful as this piece.

Looking forward to the whale account

Hope to come up with one here in Uganda as well because This sounds like a great and wonderful project and investment that is going to make many successful steemians. I wish you all the best. Thanks for sharing @genesis-project.
