Aren'T You Satisfied

AREN'T YOU SATISFIED? In peaceful you came But started playing against us like a game Religion and your culture were established While our god and cultural practices were discouraged You started ruling us in our own land Forcing us to dance your unwanted band Your demagogues broke our unity Then people were sold by chiefs full of brutality Brave Africans fought for independence Only be victors of deaths of their innocence We visualize Africa of freedom And we manage to get our kingdom Now peace has come again But from it you want to gain By your homosexual issues, aphrodisiacs, etc. we are mystified Aren't you satisfied?

Steven, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
