African Dream

Which is the real African dream? building an independent continent? decolonization of neocolonialism? I think it is a no! Which is the virgin African dream? is it life of mutual brotherhood? can it be continental patriotism? I think it is a no! Which is the African dream? becoming a world super power? protecting resources for posterity? I think it is a no African dream is a dead dream whenever the Africa begins to dream noises and skirmishes wake him out of bed he runs! But I think I know African dream It is individual not communitarian ballooning belly, head, pockets with pride then skating the planet! The African mass does not dream once noise ejects them from dream- beds they trek to where citizens have dreamt to pick bits of life! Africans, do dream virgin African dreams Nothing is so precious, nothing is so great
