Untangle Yourself Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Untangle Yourself



We are living in a world of webs
Spanning our entire life perimeters
The cellphones in our pockets
Our facebook friends
The bills in our mail
Cyber webs trapping us
In their stupid games

The webs extend to the church
Pastors trapping their congregations
In a spiritual upliftment web
Promising them prosperity
Uncompromisingly strangling them
With one hand on the bible
And another in their pockets
The methodical lure of these scams is similar to the spider webs

Banks are trapping us in their own webs
A web of loans and credit cards spans the entire globe
Catching the unsuspecting victims in their domains
Financial entanglement is the result
This web is super tough
Suffocating you with every new loan or credit card
Until the last breathe escapes your wallet
And you are left alone to face the law

It is time to untangle yourself from these webs
