FOREIGNERS TO DISCOVER RIVERS IN the VILLAGES
Is it true or lies
for some foreigners
to discover
big rivers
in your villages?
Imagine when you read
that a big river in your village
was discovered
by a foreigner.
To mean all the villagers
who were living there
Did not know about it,
While fishing in it,
Drinking its water,
Sailling on it daily.
Don't laugh,
Don't get angry,
There are more lies
on earth.
Some graves
of your ancestors
are near some sources
of some rivers
Which some foreigners
Claimed to discover.
they are now popular
Due to those lies.
Just keep smiling
as you know the truths
and continue pretending
As if you don't know about their lies.
