President

Don’t be like that elephant that caused the infants to slaughter one another indifferent to its posterity he lifted the corrupt dropped the ripe and bullied the resolute warrior don’t be like the idiot hunter who kept his living prey alive and aside to quench his thirst while being wildly murdered to go free don’t be like that desert warrior who shunned the son believed to be ambitious with no honor in spite of his valor approved by all but who turned to close all doors to Dad running don’t rely on griots foolish talks taking the kingdom as a product of your wisdom when your breaking bones to resting are begging will you be wise enough to grasp Camus not walking in front nor behind but sitting beside to help do with fair choices of the people? That will be your absolution here. PS: read the poem “Those who read for” to complete your reading
