It Doesn't Matter Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Today's opinion is tomorrow's rubbish
It is the full swing of life that establishes order
The fist of life punches hard on the sac of ignorance and wickedness
Regardless of your opinion, life sticks to its agenda
Unperturbed by the tantrums of your swollen mouth
The path of life remains steadfast on showing you the way and the truth
The philosophy of life does not die with philosophers
It is cleansed of their impure motives and blindness
Life will always teach us to be obedient, kind, honest and humble
It will not forsake its path of truth just because a few people decided to run amok
To gather inside the house of conspiracies and falsehoods
And declare themselves untouchable to the winds of time
It doesn't matter how many people surround you
Or how much you are willing to stir the bowl of confusion
If you are on the side of evil and wickedness, you will be exposed
You will find yourself isolated by the winds of time
You will beg for mercy and no one will listen
It is not wise to fool multitudes of people
With your deceptive ways and uncalibrated mind
It is the burden of foolishness that will weigh down on you
You will suffer the consequences of your foolish ways
You have to learn to kneel on the altar of humility
And be the sacrificial lamb on the altar of the truth
It is only the Light of God that sees through the veil of life
It is the indiscernible specks of wickedness that will be illuminated
And the power of the Truth will descend on your soul
Then, you will know the whole Truth
God is the Truth
