Press Fast Forward
All my life as far as I can remember, I have been made promises to, now I can't tell a promise from a fable. - unNaked Soul
I won't be able to post, for now, the PPA for other bloggers as promised. I am afraid I have to sign off blogger for a while. I have lost complete track of who I am. Who am I? I can't even say in a very honest sentence. What do I want? I have to seat back, figure that out, and set my priorities right.
If I don't come back, know that I do very well appreciate every single individual I have virtually known through this medium. May it be as you wish... be well.

The Excessive Romanticism of the Continent
Every nation falls the first time
And after falling many falls again
Even today when we should learn
We fall instead, we fail instead
We falter at every step
Today we ponder and
It is impossible to tell
How Africa would have turned out
With or without slavery and colonialism
"I have no future."
That is what they think
And who is to blame them
When the people came at you
Others of other ethnicity
Coming for your head
The fashion to blame slavery and colonialism
Considering also the history of the continent
Now I ask…for which of these you do
Condemn our country people?
Like Rwanda , every nation falls the first time
And after falling they will fall again
Each has its fair share of historical-unavoidable
Even today when they should learn
They fall instead, they fail instead
Like Africa uncertain at every step
Look at the vision of one privileged right
A right to kill or be killed
Choose they say’ or you fall.
It is too much to take
Considering the fate of other African
Black peoples in other continents
Who believe that the time to move on
has long gone out of our hand
Look at the people’s vision of the future
The blacks still in Africa
The staring faces born of fear
The scorning laughs of other nation
Looking at them involves a tremendously delay
A setback toward sorrow
For a continent that once caused
The days of Massa slavery
I can write of the detail, burned, and dissolved,
And broken off in poetic flight
Lest we forget this is an accusing poetry
Words that gets its energy from all
the suppressed memory
of ethnic racism in African history
The article below inspired this poetry
“Almost forty years after most African countries gained independence, the continent continues to have a striking resemblance to the Africa of the 18th and 19th century. Any wonder then that some commentators have insinuated that the continent was better off colonized. Indeed, in one country after another, the conditions are similar --similarities that are manifested in low quality of life. In virtually every country, the average African has been betrayed by the intellectual class, the military cadre, and by the civil society (selling out to the oligarchy and to foreign agents).
For Africa to advance, certain unorthodox steps have to be taken. The suggestions here can be improved upon. However, one must take into consideration the fact that for more than forty years, all types of paradigms and approaches have been rendered and tried to no avail. It is time to think and act unconventionally. Trepidation will not help. Fear will not help. Dithering will not help. And neither will the little-little things. It is time to be bold. It is time to think of our countries as ours, to think of our continent as ours -- as our personal domain.” (Sabidde@gmail.com, Howard University , Washington DC ,)
