A Realist
I am not a politician or political analist,
I am not a xenophobic or a racist
I am not a discriminator or an antagonist
I am not a hater or a tribalist
I am a writer,
poet and realist
I like to write more concerning the reality
Of this World for millions
Of the world readers.
Whenever true story is shared
Some people get interested,
And the others feel touched.
When I look at Africa,
Seeing thousands of black South Africans marching peacefully to express their challenges.
When I look at Europe,
Seeing thousands of French people
protesting to express their challenges.
Burning private and governmental properties
Surprisingly to see some media
which continue to portray majority
of black communities
badly on this earth,
Calling them
" barbarians "
Whenever they protest
To express their problems,
Forgeting that every vexed
Communities can do wrong things
Because of their heavy problems.
Imagine if our french brothers and sisters
Faced those challenges from 50 years back to now,
Could not they be worst than the black people
Who struggle from centuries?
On earth ,
We lean from
Some circumstances.
No notion like to suffer,
The scripture says ,"Do to others
As would have them do to you."
I am
portraying
the reality
Of this cruel
World,
As a realist, poet,
Writer,
I will always be
Amiable to All.'"
