Together we can do more

Yes, together we can do more rapes, corruption, and political intolerance.
Even worse together we can do more of making people our canon fodders.
Worse still together we can do more undermining of the constitutional sovereignty.

But together we have done more Harm to the country, what more can we do?
We have expelled the most respected men in the land and we rendered them jobless.
The same that were not good enough for us are now serving in world bodies.
Together we have been blinded by loyalty in pursuit of the unjust cause.
We have gone as far as support a person that embodies
infidelity, plagued by ignorance and illiteracy but to top it all disrespect of our values.

Together we can hoist our flags,
chant the slogans and even swear to kill for our president.
How that profits our land remains a mystery.
Yet we have the courage to say ‘it will not take a qualified accountant to figure that out’.

Together we cannot do this to ourselves,
this shouting with watered beaks.
What comes out of our beaks is too foul such that it will kill the child.
Power corrupts us but control even makes us immune to criticisms.
We cannot destroy the reason that Biko’s, Tambo’s and Sobukwe’s died.


No more together we can do nothing except, self destruction.
While we, the blind will be leading the blind into political oblivion.
