To Africans Water Is Thicker Than Blood Poem by Qiniso Mogale

To Africans Water Is Thicker Than Blood

Rating: 5.0


I have often heard people saying
blood is thicker team water,
I have also read somewhere that blood is thicker than water,
In the few years I have lived I can't help but wonder; is blood really thicker than water?

Many Times I have been in tight situations,
Many Times I have been between a rock and a hard place.
Many times I have sought for help from those I am related to.
But no help came forth,
Total strangers extended a helping hand.
In light of this I ask; is blood really thicker than water?

Africans make fun of their kinsmen misfortunes,
Africans hit fellow Africans below the belt,
Africans kick a man even when he is down.
Blood brothers and sisters sell out and back stab each other.
To Africans water is thicker than blood.

Indians have demonstrated that blood is thicker than blood,
Asians have demonstrated that blood is thicker than water,
Europeans have demonstrated that blood is thicker than water,
Americans have demonstrated that blood is thicker team water,
Africans have, however, demonstrated that water is thicker than blood.
