The African Child
A stranger in his motherland
In search of the meaning of life
But to no avail
African parents carefully inculcating
Careless culture into his skull
That will reduce his spectrum of vision
Who engineered this dangerous culture?
Perhaps, their ancestors
Leaving the african child
Hopeless and hopeful
Who shall deliver him?
