The Hatch Poem by Mutonye wa Mutuku - B.M the Poet

Monday morning, and the alarm rings,
I stretch myself, I feel my body,
To school another day,
But...

I draw the curtain,
Then I remember,

School life is over,
I'm now in the world,
Like a newly hatched chick,
To realize the wonders of the world.

Life is a tragedy,
Others say its a comedy,
But I say,
Tragedy is comedy misinterpreted.

Should I be the villain?
To push my life's tragic plain?
Or I be the protagonist?
To go against
Life villains?

To avoid I should,
Life vices like greed,
Which are in deed,
Insatiable like taking salty water drink.

To venture I must,
In life opportunities,
Avoiding persons who are liabilities,
In ones success.

So...

Today I choose to be a protagonist,
to be an opportunist,
to be a villain not,
to be a liability not.
