20/M/Nairobi My love for poetry started when I was reading other people's works. I loved the work so much and I was inspired to start writing mine.

Welcome to Africa where the people in power are always right Try to oppose them and your career will never see the next light Citizens are the least priority and the lucky ones get the last bite Division is a norm and disputes must be resolved by at least a fight In my sweet Africa freedom and rights are only on paper Oppression is a rite of passage and justice isn't any better Speeches from the governance have turned into a boring lecture An office once meant for equal service is now a business center The pain is here to stay and we better get used to this Africa of ours Yes! 'cos change isn't a matatu that is just gonna arrive in few hours Especially when all we want is about self and care less about others At the end we form alliances and competition begins- us vs us us

My Africa
It was midnight on a Sunday Above the dark beautiful sky Scattered bright sparling glasses That shone beautifully from above The moon's glow was so bold Its rays penetrated smoothly in the forest And the green leaves reflected the extra light Making the scene more beautiful to the sight At the far end of the forest There appeared an urgly dark cloud A huge red glow followed immediately Things were happening so fast Everything got worsened by the Swift blowing wind Leaves were turned to black The tree trunks were glowing red And the environment was getting more hotter It all started with a cigarette glow Then came a conc dark smoke, A huge flying red glow And now we're counting losses of homes
