Poem Title:
Poem
“The Masked Faces” We peeling off the foreskin of our rich culture, Ignorance is the reason we feed on the carcass of a Vulture, The more we fail the more we weaken the pillars of the structure, Created by God but creating an illusion of a creature, The skeletons never rot but maintains its posture, They only emboss on their cave walls a perfect picture, The township call it an adventure, While the Kings call it an indenture. Greedy and selfish leaders ripping what they did not sow, Deceiving the youths to pay with their innocent soul, Big dreams scattered all over and it shouldn't be so, They move from east, west, north and south, Just to buy our intelligence with sugar coated mouth, After they get into power they turn to be our enemy, Making life a hell instead of being our remedy, Hungry for power and fame politicians, They make promises like magicians, But actually they are professional politricians. They wear suits and ties driving in expensive cars, Sitting in the comfort of their office with fresh skin no scars, They call it favour for favour, What a shameful behavior, No favour no position, No favour no promotion, But this favour favours a particular gender, They are so engulfed that they cannot take it out of their agenda, They misuse power and authority, You will have no choice because that is your only opportunity, They will demand for your certificate as if that's what they really want, They will think they are having fun but rather tarnishing their image and causing calamity. They claim they were called, Thirsty for power and fame, Not only by their dressing, you will also know them by their names, Performing magic instead of miracles, With the blood of the devil they build their tabernacles, Inside this tabernacles they gather innocent souls, Assisting the devil to control the world as a whole, Acting as angels of God but serving the devil, No wonder, with a glance they can recite the whole bible, They never practice what they preach, They use the Bible but represent the devil when they teach, Living a fancy life whiles their members swim the pool of poverty, Adopting tittles of supremacy, They will never preach about the end time, They rather preach about how to be rich meanwhile they will never give you a dime, But God will be the judge in his own time. ****************************************************** «ISAAC ASANTE POETRY» Written by: Isaac Asante ©2019 @facebook: Trapking Tales
