Agenda
We reject war
as useless
non-violence 
is our weapon

We reject inequality
as dangerous
justice 
is our dream

We reject illiteracy
as unfair
education
is our right

We reject walls
as vain
solidarity
is our goal....

Illiteracy
Illiteracy
A world full of 
Too many intellectuals
Too many scientists 
Too many geunious
Too many smart technologies 

Yet find it deficult 
To live among 
each other 
With love 

Is equal to a doom 
Called 
illiteracy...

I Ignore All But
Truth-less belief is true illiteracy; 
Belief-less truth is ignorance!

But the conscience and rationalism
hates only illiteracy not the ignorance! 

So what’s the ignorance! 
Oh! I ignore all blind believers but I'm not illiterate!

Premium Member Old Glory's Story
Old Glory's 
  sad story:

Flags did wave
  over slaves

Abe Lincoln freed 'em
  South wouldn't heed him

In the year of the Lord, 1955
  in the City of Houston, to my surprise

Signs read: 'No jews, blacks or dogs allowed'
  Read 'em and cried with my own eyes

2013 in Washington D.C.
  nearly 20% black illiteracy

When Confederate Flags today yet fly
  'Old Glory's Story' is somehow awry...

Dreaming Into the Day
Starvation and lust, betrayal of trust,
That nobody swindles is my cherished dream.

Advocacy of war, nations in conflict,
That the world makes peace is my fantasy.

Illiteracy and ignorance, dearth of judgement,
That all be civilised and enlightened is my illusion.

Deprived of rights, entrenched in aversion ,
That all be valued and honoured is my reverie, a vision.

My imagination, a deep aspiration,
Am I dreaming into the day !!!...

R.A.K.
Robb is his name
He's sort of abrasive, yet fair and very emotionally creative   
Robb is infatuated with the sea, art and Christi 
Who feels Hopeful, disappointed, fearful 
Allen’s son 
He is terrified of stupidity, illiteracy and greed  
he wishes for nothing more than to  see his offspring grow up healthy, safe and  free 
Maud, Oklahoma …where his ideas flow 
His name is Kopp

Poverty
POVERTY.
Behold, we  all  own
Ink  and  leaf,
Translate  all  your  leafs.
Progress  is  knowledge,
Dedication  elevation.
Poverty  remits
Illiteracy, stagnation  and
Shame.
What  then  do I  print
On  my  leaf?
I  beg  for  rain  to  wet
My  grains
So  I  can  gain.
I  am  sure  my  Creator  
Would  make  me  elevate.
                                                                                                             AKEWUSOLA  HABIB....

Premium Member Naked Robbery
Classes on tranny and queer diversity
    universities reek of perversity

  Discrimination abounds all around
    save if your skin's black or brown

  Tuition hikes obscene, naked robbery
    flaunt luxury dorms and diners, effete snobbery

  Not a smidgen on learning or teaching in glittering reports
    just facilities upgrades, data analytics in sports

  Grade inflation boosts illiteracy ever higher
    agree or disagree ~ at least I'm no liar...

Boat of Poverty
Why this boat?
Could it be the boat of destitution?
Conveying Epidemics, Hunger, Rags,
Malnutrition and Illiteracy.

Descend from me!
Banish from my world!
You cursed word!
You that called education a"Privilege"!
Patrimony of the ghetto!

W.H.O called you "Lion of Africa",
U N called you "Agenda ".
Predicament to the black,
Livelihood to the white.

Harking to conviction,
Capsize and rise no more.
For "Black Rose" to smile again
On the land of plenty....

Premium Member Mama Africa
What have you done 
To yourself mama
What have done 
To yourself Africa
You don't know who you are
Your superiority
Turn into inferiority
For you are into mental slavery
Because of poverty and illiteracy
What have you 
Done to yourself
You have bewitched yourself
You have turn into a beast
So you eat your sons 
And daughters for feast
You don't know  
What is right
So do not know 
The cause to fight  
What have done 
To yourself  mama
What have you done 
To yourself Africa...
