Poem

Thunder strikes only but once
Trust is like virginity it is lost only but once
But how do you forgive
When a human is not trusted
When Rwanda is a story by itself
How do you slash fellow humans?
‘’See those skeletons well arranged in shelves’’
“This is a family; those are the bones of the children”
Reason is we were born of another tribe
Our blood is not theirs, they are not our people
So kill them all, let blood flow, slaughter
Politics for blood, so sad stories to tell
How do we trust our own?
Called in a church for refuge only to be roasted to death
“Burn the whole church” ‘’slash them all’’.

We lost it humans, we lost it
I remain human, I am not an African
I am not black I am no white- American
I am no Indian; I am blood and bones, Human
Break not my bones; spill not my blood fellow human
We all belong; we are one in creation and origin
The soil we came from, soil we go back
See we are same here, I am no Luo see
Just human, head shoulder, knees and toes, like any other human.

Before the white wash we were with us
The white butterflies came and gave a language
We defined tribalism using the white ink
We lost our own link
We were given stereotype-boundaries to divide us
We had a happy introduction, we never anticipated any tragedy
We killed our own, we orphaned and widowed
Raped and maimed, Robbed of what is human in us.

Refreshing, rebuilding, recharging, Reconnect, Wake up!
Reconstruct the genetic make up, Human
Remember always I am you, you are me and we one.
No tribe, No white, No African, No black, just human
I am not made up of stereotypes
I am born by blood built by bones
Just like you I cry and laugh, I feel, I feel pain.
I am Human not a tribe
