Bursting From Internal Divisions
Conceit with flavored ignorance...
And a wealth of blatant stupidity,
Has taken center stage,
In this particular society.
One that has 'had' more than its share,
Of obvious opportunities.
When an intelligent leader is not respected,
For an integrity clearly seen...
Downhill,
Will that country go...
With its elitist dreams indebted.
Bursting from internal divisions...
Based on pretentious racist schemes,
Directed because the people did not want...
A Black man to show them,
How not to fail but succeed.
Foolish will history prove them,
To self destruct...
From their own blinded disgust!
Heightened by deceit,
Greed and misguided distrust.
