Unvaccinated Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Unvaccinated

Rating: 5.0


Now, let us open this Pandora's box
But first I have to put my antivenom close by
I might be stung while performing this lobectomy
It is the epistle of common sense that I hold in my heart
Let us all remember the nonsense of yesterday
And dip ourselves in the river of reflection
Are the conspirators here with us?
What happened to those who lost their lives?
Can we agree to disagree?
Pandemics are dangerous stuff
Let us not play with their mouths
Lest we find ourselves buried in their trail /entrails
Let's look forward
Do we want to see the truth?
Or are we still stuck in the mud of lies and deceit?
The dust is lifting, I hope everyone can now see the truth
Planet Earth might be a dangerous place
But most of the time, the danger comes from within us
Let us introspect and re-live our decisions
We have to find our logic and dismantle it
Then we can look at life with fresh eyes
It is time to get vaccinated
So that we can all go back to our old ways
The door is open, the future is bright
