Ubuntu Poem by Zooey Lichty

Do not judge Me, for being Me
Do not criticize Me
For if You do-
all I have to say is Ubuntu

Do not cast rocks at Me
Or get Angry at the things I do
For if You do
all I have to say is Ubuntu

For when You hear that word
You will think of the wrong You’ve done
And feel guilt for the things You’ve said
when I say Ubuntu

When I say Ubuntu
You will realize that You judge You
That You criticize You
for all of You know the meaning of Ubuntu

And the meaning of Ubuntu is
“I am what I am, because of who We all are”
And now You to know the meaning-
of Ubuntu
