Blame the Society

blame the society when a piece of meat is stolen from your sinful pot of selfishness and greed blame the society when your bread change to a strange color from the one you made it blame the society when your goat discovered where those tubers of yam you seized from the orphans are kept by your cohost in the night blame the society when the roof of your home is burnt and rats are seen packing some fishes away. blame the society in the morning of your crisis blame the society of your misfortunes in the night she would accept your blames with laughter blame the society when those currencies arranged in your walls are discovered by the saints the society must know what happen to you the society must treat you when sick and, if she fails, she must be blamed for that. you have no money to pay your children fees fight the society, she knows the cause of that. your in-law has won the heart of your husband, the government must be the cause of that! why didn’t they provide the substances you need to satisfy your husband at home? the creaking wall would tell a tale tomorrow the sun would wet our skin this afternoon when watching the deeds told by our deeds we must learn to blame the society daily, planting accusation fingers on her face she is the apple that sour our tongues from the beginning when Eve was the goddess. we are the society and the society is us why then we lay blame on ourselves unknowingly claiming the society, we created is our enemy? © John Vincent Artistry For Film Republic Pictures
