Decolonization Poems | Examples


African Dream

Which is the real African dream?
building an independent  continent?
decolonization of neocolonialism?
I think it is a no!

Which is the virgin African dream?
is it life of mutual brotherhood?
can it be continental patriotism?
I think it is a no!

Which is the African dream?
becoming a world super power?
protecting resources for posterity?
I think it is a no

African dream is a dead dream
whenever the Africa begins to dream
noises and skirmishes wake him
out of bed he runs!

But I think I know African dream
It is individual not communitarian
ballooning belly, head, pockets with pride
then skating the planet!

The African mass does not dream
once noise ejects them from dream- beds
they trek to where citizens have dreamt
to pick bits of life!

Africans, do dream virgin African dreams
Nothing is so precious, nothing is so great

Freedom and Independence!

Freedom!
Why to Sulu you cannot grant?
Independence!
To Sulu you don’t mind!

Freedom!
Sulus cried for once!
Independence! 
Sulus need to embrace then…

Freedom!
Until this shall not achieve
Still the march towards it!
Independence!
Sulus need this to happen
United Nations please do what is due to them!

Freedom and independence 
Are basic human rights 
For the Sulu to regain!

Should other nations feel
What was their will to have their freedom? 
They could have felt how Sulus 
Wanted to be like them!

Do not add time to waste lives!
Please act to help Sulu stateless nation!
This could be done by United Nations?
For Decolonization!

Justice! Justice! Justice!
