Those Possibilities In Africa

those possibilities in Africa
if Garden of Eden exists
it must be in Black Africa

tell me what Africa lacks
beautiful cars, power machine
are still buried in African sediments

tell me what Africa lacks
nuclear bombs, fighter jets
are still asleep there in Africa rocks

tell me what Africa lacks
those talented scientists
are still idle in Africa bright brains

tell me what Africa lacks
patriotic leaders, servicemen
are still hiding in Africa families

those possibilities in Africa
who knows not but a cunning dreamer
