Sometimes In Africa

Sometimes in Africa
Freedom is pain
Flag is paper
Don’t dare to ask your right
Judge will not judge  
Wrong will be right
And correct is wrong.

Sometimes in Africa
Democracy is fake
President is king
Living like gods
They do like angels
No mistake to them
Everything is right.

Sometimes in Africa
Police are judge 
They can do anything
Allowed to kill
No anyone to ask
Dare you will see
How the end looks like.

Sometimes in Africa
Army is everything
Hands of leader
Their life is better
They are people in Africa
Gun is stick
Can punish everyone.


Sometimes in Africa
Life is for the leader
People are workers
Salary is dream
Work to eat
Only is enough
Not for the development.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
