Letter To My Daughter

LETTER TO MY DAUGHTER this poem reshuffled cabinet the rhythm resigned the president its metaphors adjourned parliament my daughter awaken sleeping patriots eating peanut in slogan darkness rise dozing voters in the warmth of political acid awaken struggle heroes in graves tired of wrong epitaphs and fake eulogies awaken fat cats puffing zanunised propaganda burgers in slumber rise green horns drinking much talked herbal tea of change grandfathers of patriotism to bring back truth drowning in potholes of grief god fathers of change to bring back my vote choked in drums of new renewed corruption bring red hot charcoal to roast political bedbugs sucking our blood in daylight bring a word scientist to burn the justified injustice in poetic sulphuric acid my daughter this poem reshuffled cabinet the rhythm resigned the president the metaphors adjourned parliament. __________________________________
