In Us Lies The Fault Poem by John Chizoba Vincent

In Us Lies The Fault



why cry thou of corrupt leaders?
why wailed of bribery and corruption?
which had feasted deep into the system
we all are victims of circumstances
stranded with an strange fear
In us it all started from the genesis
Because we we wanted too much
So much of the luxuries
Materials which fadeth in a hurry
however, in us discrimination grew hope and liveth
In us came selfishness smiling deceptively
in us lies wickedness of the soul
with wings so black and red like the crimesome
In a thought that nature is a child
Who in hurry forget that which the law says
Have you forgotten the foretold prophecy?
We came naked and naked we must go
winds are tossing things about
High anarchy is loosed upon the earth
Chaos, and drumming of war sounds more dangerous
than hell.
things fall apart leaving the center sagging
We kill, betray, dump ourselves and,
nothing to hold unto in the terrible nightmare
who's fault?
In us lies the fault.
