Shunned Responsibilities Poem by Qiniso Mogale

Irresponsible fathers
Irresponsible husbands
Irresponsible mothers
Irresponsible wives
Shunning their responsibilities
Disregarding their responsibilities.

Irresponsible fathers
Children growing up without fatherly love
Children growing up without fatherly guidance
Children growing up without motherly love
Children growing up without motherly guidance
Husbands neglecting their wives
Wives neglecting their husbands.

Shunned responsibilities
Broken families
Divided families
Disjointed families
Dysfunctional families.

Shunned responsibilities
Fathers must take responsibility
Mothers must take responsibility
Husbands must take responsibility
Wives must take responsibility
Relationships should be mended
Relationships should be restored.
