HAMLET poem by Simpa Omoluabi



HAMLET by Simpa Omoluabi

‘Hamlet…’ an existential play of art
In respect to beliefs in afterlife.
King murderer wed to his brother’s wife
Whom none knew his usurp and murderous part.
That whose ghost languishes in hell for sins
Tells his son to avenge his origins:
Justice doomed! Your dad’s killer beds your mum!
Of all your uncle is the bloody bum.  
Hamlet for a while his part did query
As assassin, as ‘hire and salary;
How objective is info from ghostland.
He who sought vengeance dies murderer, and
For the true murderer ‘All’ screamed treason!
Then ‘All’ crowned an alien who just walked in.
