POEM: I Know A Country Far Away by McLove(m): 1:40pm On Jun 10, 2015
I know a country, far far away,
Whose land is very fertile, yet its
people starve.
Who is surrounded by the Atlantic,
yet its people have no
running water.
Where leather is in abundance, yet
they import shoes and
bags.
Where oil oozes out of its soil, yet
they import petrol.
This country has over 150million
people, yet they need to
import a group of 10 “consultants”
to audit their oil
accounts.
Where cocoa seeds are picked by
toddlers, yet they import
chocolate
Who is renowned for internet fraud,
yet it does not have a
decent internet connection.
I know a country, far far away.
