We Are Graduates

We have graduated from many prestigious tertiary institutions, With flying colors, Competent and resourceful, But we are roaming around the streets, homeless, penniless and jobless. We have been trained, Under the scorching sun and in the rain, In skill acquisition And entrepreneurship development (SAED), But we are neglected, so we resort to crimes, And daily marched toward the docks. We have studied the Constitution and Civic Education, Equipped ourselves daily With the articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Found out that we are the leaders of tomorrow, A lie as old as time itself. Since we have tasted poverty and dormancy, And can't even say when they will stop politicking with our future, It's high time we make up our minds, To changelessly be or not to be, Perpetual hungry applicants or educated and hopeless scholars.
