what is wrong with us - dead be governments corrupt

when an older person to a younger one looks

when one thinks that much knowledge does come from books

when falsehood written be realities crooks

and thus understanding of society ones brain unhooks.

when much said be at stake

for if one the facts should slightly shake

any person with a bit of intelligence will make

when a government be corrupt and fake.

when the innocent and the vulnerable

in a situation surrounded intolerable

while officials and president sit comfortable

raped be innocence, unacceptable.

when those in power full of excuses

their behaviour the epitome of abuses

discontent and unlawfulness it produces

the meaning of democracy and human rights it reduces.

should i have respect for a president

and the cabinet his sheep, evident

until their corruption they document

for the suffering of their citizens repent

to an audit of their spending consent

help further lies circumvent

.....

then

maybe then

when the economy begins to grow

when the man on the street for their toils has something to show

and a mother and child public transport can take

without fear at the mercy of the driver to shake

...

then

maybe then

confidence be restored in who sits at the helm

atrocities of crime will not the innocent overwhelm

the power will rest in the law abiding citizen

and a new era, death to the corrupt

deceitful

arrogant

abrasive and abusive

....will be written.
