The Curse Of 3rd World Existence Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

People are peeling themselves away
Uprooting their families and fleeing
The scourge of 3rd world existence
Biting deep within their souls
Tormenting their brittle bodies

The 1st world is just waking up
The curse of 3rd world existence
Approaches their comfortable abode
Demolishing the serenity on its path
Wiping decades of equanimity
Brexit is only the beginning

3rd world existence is a curse to humanity
It is the aftermath of colonialism and capitalism
It is the damage after the stormy years of neglect
The 3rd world is on a collision course with the 1st
A new world order is beginning

The answer is simple
Let's all strive for a 1st world planet
Let's demolish any 3rd world mentality
Let's rebuild the capabilities of the lost continents
Let's rebrand the values of Mankind
Let's us stand together as one
Let's avoid hiding in our long lost belief systems
Let's us bury fascism, racism, and religious fundamentalism
