Bifurcation Poem by Tosin Adesokan

Bifurcation



We are all human
aren't we?
we are all human
until riches segregated us
and money divided our moody environment
avarice, world divider
thanks for your work,
you broke our accord
and got some busy while some are idle
we are all human but some human work for others
Imagine no no riches or possessions

We are all human
are we not?
we are all human
until races, faces and colour divided us
same body,
same people
but colour turned families into shambles
we are all human but different colour
if we are of the same colour
we will all be human
imagine no country!

We are all human
don't you think so?
we are all human
until religion bifurcated us
same mouth
same body
praying to different gods
we are all human
but beliefs shattered and broke our unity
imagine no religion too
we will all be human
