DONKOMI, THUMB POWERS

They hold it

They hold it in their thumbs

They hold it in pieces

A great law by whomever

So we will not be cheated

But a handful of people come together

And pat the backs of few,

Grease the palms of some,

Stroke the egos of some,

And buy the thought of others with empty promises

 

These are people who are in a car they want flying,

A car they can’t afford crashing,

The only car surrounded by trekkers,

Who do they turn to when fixers are far away?

They sell their car anyway cheaply to crap dealers

When they are in it

Then they complain of heat,

They complain of the receding speed,

They complain of the unknown noise,

They complain of the fitters hired,

They complain of everything when they should have

Foreseen the calamity that forced ancestral humans

To break the thumb powers into pieces

Sharing them to every household for safe keeping.

Keep mute!

It is your car; it is also his car

You all sold it to those who are taking parts for themselves

To build grinding mills

Deal with it.

Just a simple Ghanaian trying to find the best in our society. I may be fun, I may be interesting, I may be funny, I may even be foolish or intelligent, but it is all based on the mood in which you find yourself. I believe our minds make us who we are. Know that, pain, no matter its 'unbearability', is transient. Unburden or delight yourself for a while in my writings please. And all corrections, advice and opinions are welcome. Know that you are the king, queen or royal on this blog. :)
