Twin Brothers parted To Opposite Corners!

What is it you might ask The gallinaceous bird that comes to bask; Next to the old house’s back? I pledge, these are not words of mountebank; If it squawks like a duck And waddles like a duck It is not a rocket science to crack. It then must be a duck.
Likewise, two gentlemen of a tribe Headed in a different drive Unbeknown journey, albeit contrived,
That demanded endurance to survive.
As they were so proud to live They were so proud to die; To the displeasure of those who connived Gloating over was denied.
But what was the genetic link Of the two blokes; Who looked alike; Manifested a twin psychological make up, Drunk from the same water tap? And slept in the same bunk.
Make no spiel; They were and still are people From a same stable. But after many years a drift It is not an easy a trip To bond with once lost tribe; With plots and counter plots, For centuries played out; Gaslight implanted in their hearts; By master crafts, To rule them apart.
Now to overcome their predicaments, They have a difficult map to chart. But chart it must be done If truth is to be born; Endeared to shine across the horizon! Tigray and Eritrea are one And only one Cruelly slated on separate plates To satiate feudio-colonial appetite That knew no a limit To subjugate and exploit; With no legal or moral remits.
