A Slave To My Conscience - A Poem By Peter E. Chukwudeli / Lovely Slave (2) (3) (4)
Slave Mentality by Doctorfitz: 5:11am On Oct 01, 2016 |
I still see chains in your hands, Shackles on your feet,dust on your hair. The locks are broken yet you remain seated Legs crossed,head tilted in those rags Your cell is dark,so is your skin So I ask,who are we? Who are they?. My master is the best,his ways are perfect Take a look at his fine linen Catch a glimpse of his skin He's more than a mentor,he's an idol He's impeccable,I wish to be like him So I ask,who are we?who are they? In cue just like marching bands You've lost yourselves,dark or fair U were oppressed,deceived but not defeated Torn clothes,blurry visions and dirty bags Your hands still holding up ur chin So I ask,who are we?who are they? You even took up his language,where is your local dialect?, Slaves!all of you,men and women. He has led you to the temple of sin You can't walk,you can't talk and you even can't stand tall. He made you to see the enemy in your team. So I ask,who are you?who are they You're a slave,basking in d rays of neo-colonialiasm.. |
