Burundi Hog Tide Poem by Jalal Sunstrum

Burundi Hog Tide

Rating: 5.0


The country is heading for a new conflict.

gas shortage, the government can't pay off
the 25 million USD debt.

the politicians are hogging off

there's plenty of money there,
the country is rich in mines...

so a hungry man is an angry man...

therefore the youth want to leave

the migrants are not always welcome in Europe,
so a country like Canada est une place de choix
more tolerance, more social security, more Peace

as imperfect as it is.

Burundi isn't the only nation that's mutating.

such is the plight of the world today.

But we're all heading towards
the Most Great Peace, hang on there O Humanity!
