Paradise Lost
I thought our country was a little Paradise. What has happened? Apart from all the economical problems we still see traces of racism going on. And worse is the lasting memories our people have as well as their vision of what should be now. The color of ones skin is still too important for our people and we are treated differently because of this skin color.

Plebeians,
I call them, the ruthless Blacks Ascribing
their separation to indiscriminate facts Racially
charged comments based on times gone And restitution
is unacceptable though fairly drawn Dwelling in
the past and ignoring the now Is dangerous
to Blacks and Whites all how So close the
book on our ugly history Erase the apartheid
behavior that tarnished our memory Lets
endeavor forever to never repeat Original ills
that would cause us further defeat So forget
van colors, tennis courts and the rest The life we
live today will judge our characters best |
