There is a Pan African anger

Which has created many an avenger

So much they want a changer

With one body, they work like a fate arranger

They curse the foreign endanger

And say their faith is our freedom exchanger

And our old gods imprisoned for their baby in the manger

Who is a complete stranger

And dipped our land in danger

To make us their stooging strangers

They seek out the buried kola

Dig out broken calabashes…

Promising to mend their fabrics

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. :)

I believe the baby in the manger can and wishes to dwell in peace with all but a few extremists are determined to rip apart any human kindness and compassion that exists.

It seems like everyone in the world is breathing war. I understand the frustrations, I have many frustrations of my own, but war never achieves what it promises. It just breeds more oppression.
