THE STATE OF AFFAIRS I sit and wonder about the chaos in the world, Africa in turmoil, it's a ship in a tsunami. We have pirates at the helm, everything is topsy-turvy. Like sailors with scurvy, the leaders are intellectually-starved. They are thieves and tyrants, killers and liars. All the rulers really need a personality-transplant. Its constant mutiny on the ship by rebels with guns Spreading grief and strife like metastatic-tumors. This social-pollution is all around the world Big Nations become bullies, emotionally-handicapped. The small ones prostitutes morally-castrated. Politicians engage in egotistical-masturbation, They promise so many things, all diplomatic-lies Banks had to receive financial-resuscitation For the nations to avoid economic-suicide. I sit and wonder if this will ever end? Or will it get worse til the call for lights-out? Imran Darboe, state of affairs © 2013
