Anger Seethes

I look up to see the remnants of greed I look to my side to anarchy set free The air is swollen with the despair of past plunder Serenity is but a void complacent to none other Gone are the days of freedom and glee Stupidity reigns, a shower cures H.I.V? Misconstrued talks, all end in facetious decree Don't alk about education for it holds only lightness Abuse of trust, usurp all you can, yet still no one taught People in high places secure theft money with no effort Look away innocent for you must not judge, Your voice is your silence, do not hold a grudge Freedom was our key handed to us in 1994 Alas our country to dire straits she has brought Our upcoming elections on 22 April 2009 will place Jacob Zuma (a.k.a rapist, murderer, fraud theft and liar) as the South African president. If his party gains a 66% majority (which is highly likely) he will be able to change the constitution and thereby not serve his sentence for rape. murder, fraud, theft and stupidity - look out Zimbabwe, here comes South Africa!

A horrendous situation. I sincerely hope he does not get the higher percentage. Why do such things happen? Why would be people vote for him? It must be very complicated and no doubt I am ill informed. I feel your anger and am hoping for the better outcome. Love, Shar
