Yeah, I posted poetry. But this is different!

Found free verse poetry becomes Haiku with minimal editing.

In his statement to
Royal Dutch border police
The imposter claimed

To be on the run
From fellow Nigerian
Villagers, Fearing

For his life, he was
Expected to succeed his
Recently deceased

Deceased Father
As the village witch doctor
And participate

Participate in
Ritual sacrifices.
He decided to

Flee to Montreal.
He applied for asylum
In the Netherlands.

Records show that the
Passport was issued to a
Dorette L. Dudah

Travel Abuja
Then to Amsterdam Schiphol
Finally Montreal
