I Have Been Poisoned Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

I have been immersed in a million barrel of human toxicity
Every part of my body has been mutilated
Every day of my life has been scrutinized
And every imperfection highlighted
I have been a topic in the house of gossip
I have been tossed up and down in the house of wickedness
I have been poisoned with evil spells

I refuse to stand down
I refuse to sit in a corner and cry
I refuse to open my mouth and spill out venomous words
I refuse to be a prisoner of paranoia and delusions
I refuse to be a victim of wickedness
I refuse to suffer psychosocial paralysis
I refuse to bow down to the evil spirits

I stand erect on the pillar of Love
I am a servant of Love
And I will die for Love
I am a disciple of Love
And I am a consumer of the illuminated knowledge
I will continue to walk on the path of light
And I will continue to submerge myself in Silence
I have been baptized with the fire of Love
And I am totally empty of self
I am a spirit human being
I am nothingness
And I am one with you
Love is our union with God
