Welcome In This Society

WELCOME TO THIS SOCIETY Welcome to this society where the feces is more than the toilets Welcome to this society where the bribes are more rampant in the church than in the street Where security is GOOD around the politician than to the citizens Where water is more at the sewage than in our homestead Welcome to this society where mothers are the head of the families As fathers follows after the children Welcome to this society Where the killings in the churches is more than in the city centers Where mothers are called fathers and fathers called mothers Welcome to this society Where those who do right things are guilty As those who do wrong are innocent Welcome to this society Where innocent people are more in jail As the rich criminal are free Welcome to this society Where the rich have only two children As the poor have more than ten children Welcome to this society Where politician promise us good health but they Aim at selling as mosquito nets Welcome to this society Where deciding where to print the ballot papers is The big issues in the country Welcome to this society Where getting an A in examination is not a big deal Where the rich people drink bottled water As poor people drink water from the sewage Welcome to this society Where the armed forces thinks that police men are just but watchmen Welcome to this society where promises are more than what they does Welcome to this society where Jacob Juma dies But no concrete reason is given out Where George Saitoti dies but everybody claims to have no hand in it Where Nkaiserry can just die without notice Where people pollute environment and nobody claims to have eaten Githeri Welcome to this society Where HIV/AIDS is not an issues but pregnancy is a country’s debate Welcome to this society Where the citizen sells their votes for only shillings Where kariuki kills wafula as wekesa kills Njoki Where otieno kills Mwende as kosgei kills Maina Welcome to this society where insecurity is our daily bread Where bombs are the drugs we are addicted to Where the people don’t know the neighbors name I love you my society and I hope things will change one day As time is a master healer Let us PRAY to fade this paradox Paradox kills our society Lets fight against corruption Lets fight against expatriates’ Lets fight against bad governance Since God gives a leaders but we choose Let there be no blood shade and keep in mind Stupid man soils his house in fire only with aim to kill a rat

This is POWERFUL stuff!! Deserves far more exposure. Gritty writing, Merson; sometimes a soul just has to say it exactly as it is...it would be a betrayal to do any otherwise. My best regards! :) john
