Poverty   Poetry

  

Bewildered women are seen
Darting about the market
Infants straddled on their backs
Clinging on them with innocence
Heads dropped unaligned
Yet we watch them
Their presence insignificant
In the market of bedlam
Elected elders with shows of ignominy.
God!Behold them
Those on whom our destiny is entrusted
Reneging on their oaths of service
Promises and convenant
When will you send to us
Your pacific water of progeny?
To douse this aflaming
Issues at stake
We are tell-tales to houses and nobles
In self-strive and betrayal.
