Shame

Zw Poet

I was watching when humanity was being ravaged.
With no defense they stood naked,
naked with shame but no one noticed.
I was watching when dignity was being sold out for free, but no one rebelled.
Time elapsed, days went by, people died,
but shame remained shame and values kept on being dismissed.
Who will teach who? And who will listen to who?
Those were the questions that kept on ringing in my ears.
I was watching when culture and traditions were being taken for granted.
Children of the soil being converted to children of the wind.
Life still is still going, I to my pledged word l shall keep on watching
