Trapped within this heat there’s an
Ocean of thoughts defeating me.

Suicide has come and gone even death
Is confused. I am awake yet the whole
Of ikasi is half-asleep.

Conflict between races: black, white, yellow,
I mix these colors and get red for bloodshed
Bombarding my mind as I choose my artillery:
Butcher’s knife or bread knife? Mxm **** it, I opt to
Load my machine gun as I take no prisoners.

I live only by one rule “spare not the feelings of those
Who have none.”

As my stu-stu-stu-stuttering riffle goes “tat’ i cover lova,”
They blaze to bushes with rampaging speed and seeing as my weight
Constitutes a majority of ten, I choose to be democratic and side with its
Vote, by not running but instead sending a hail of bullets.



Voetsek, Voetsek and Voetsek I say!!

As dusk breaks into dawn I am shattered into reality as prison introduces me to myself. I started shaking like the last shivering leaf on a dying tree and came to realize:  The person whom I slaughtered was not only my neighbor, but was also my brother and if I have to suffer for my brother whom they call ikwerekere to survive, then I say “give me pain till I die!”.

It
was
stolen
through
Religion
And
Politics

Citizen.
Do You
Expect to win it back
Without finding your origin?
One the bible
taught
Them(your ancestors)
to neglect.

Rethink
Why they teach you to be Christians?
Just to see heaven after death?

Mxm! that's total *******
Just think
What drove these missionaries, these oppressors
To sway heaven's way for you?
God?
or you may say Jesus the Christ?
Then why forcing it in to us,
If it meant good?

Stop being brick brained
This whole thing makes no sense.
This Christianity was designed to oppress.

And this expropriating thing
Will never happen
While these fake politicians are Catholic
Poppets?

Nah marn! What were we before we became Christians?
How were we before we invested our hopes to these politicians?
Let's go back to who we were
Before we became biblical brainwashed
