Corruption, the Blindfold

POET- Wilmot Benny Bullo
 
POEM- CøRrupTïøn, The blindfold

Blindfolded like that of the movie Bird box 
Our minds have been blindfolded, and at times I ask myself will corruption 
Which has been married to our nation and seek divorce be eliminated?

Integrity has become a thing of the past and has been laid down to rest since and it grave has never been decorated  with savouring colours but with colours of frustration

Corruption has rained in every part of the nation and our houses have been flooded to the roof 
Now we are homeless,and we roam the earth with tears

Killing anyone who stands in it way and leaving their families in tears and justice will never be served cause the doers are the investigators 

Hailing those corrupt leaders at the highest level and putting an end to those lives who fight against it like an animal 

We no longer see the positive things because our eyes are covered in dark by that endless blindfold and only God can save us from this agony
