Bleaching Of The Mind Poem by Maurice Kamau
Bleaching Of The Mind
Africa is beautiful
We are losing her
And her skin tells it all
And the mind too
And glorification of the snow at the peak
At the expense of the mountain beneath
We are doing to labour
What we did to 'chondos'
The African baskets;
And coffee
And cocoa;
Importing pollution
Exporting green,
Reducing our education
Sticking to the screen
We need a revolution
Against our perception.
