Richard Nnoli Poet Epic

Desperate Heart

desperate heart
A desperate heart 
is a confuse mind 
a confuse mind 
has no good to offer 
no good can come out 
from a mind unstable 
so never can unstable leaders 
create for us this stable 
dreams of freedom 
we always desire 

desperate heart
a desperate heart
is a greedy mind 
a greedy mind 
is a wicked soul 
no wonder this men 
on top of our authorities
are not far from stealing and 
rooting our resources out 
from our reach
cos they never care about us 
there vision 
is all for there greed 
as is obvious in there mission

the desperate heart 
is a blind soul
a blind soul 
is uneasy fellow
a blind soul don't see 
what is good or best 
for today to achieve a 
better tomorrow
our governments are blind 
they are only desperate for 
power and money 
they are so blind to see our needs
either can they see our struggles

desperate heart
a desperate heart 
is a manipulative fellow
who cares only on how 
to profit by just lies 
and deceit
a manipulative fellow
loves  illusion
no wonder we still 
under the control of 
our manipulative leaders 
who don't care 
about all that is of good
to our society
Instead as they pretend 
to care 
they only manipulate our 
mind in a way for us 
to see the bad good 
and the good bad
