Burning In The Rain Poem by JOS POETRY (Josepoet)

BURNING IN THE RAIN

_"Elect me, I promise to make worse better"¬_
_"Choose me, economy will be stable"_
_"Give me that chance, you will like my work"_
_"I am the change, pick the change, I will change you"_
They are serpents
Spitting only burning lies
They are hyenas
Never getting satisfied with what they have
We are burning in the rain
When we thought showers of blessing will fall
Economy killing with no mercy
Truly they are the change,
Change to drive minds insane
Change to make stomachs sleep while yarning
In fact, they made the worst better
Eyes at their best crying every day
Minds all time sunk in stress
The best economy we have than ever
Where outgoing is three times more than incoming
Where you sleep and wake up finding additional rates
Where you eat thinking the next three days of staving
What is the meaning of _mwananchi_ when treated like country slaves?
What is the meaning of commercial sell and exports when the producers never gain?
We are freezing under coastal sun heat
Dying of hunger yet we own a hotel
Suffering of illness while we are the doctors
On your land but staying as a refugee
Its nonsense, thinking we are independent yet colonized by ourselves
We are fooling ourselves by the word _nchi yetu_ yet there are _wenyenchi_
It is like a monopoly market, dying with no say
Foreigners in the motherland being fled away
We are freezing under the sun heat
We are burning in the rain
