A Little Wisdom Poem by kelvin karani

You don’t have to be old

To know that without the basics,

An explosion by man is stalled

Temporarily, biding its time before

Consuming everyone on its way.



Man does not fight another

To get food for his dinner

But to save his own skin

Lest he looses it in the confusion

That man’s life has always been



Neither God nor the Devil

Are to blame for our misfortunes

Man’s own silly actions

Deny him a better life on earth.

And he blames fate for reciprocating



People get the leaders they crave

Consciously or otherwise

Who them are to carry the blame

When things go form bad to worse

We are our own leaders……..
