Corruption

by Rose Mwai

Come along side me; Let me show you what you’ve been missing;

But before you partake what am offering; know this

They say nothing is free for a reason;

My baskets are full of things; who wants to die poor;

I have politely taken from the poor who were not able to take care of what is theirs;

They actually need the help;

Guard what is yours for there are many my kind.

It is just a few days ago when I made acquaintance and see how far he is gone;
Once a beggar, now endowed in the world’s wealth;

My gratifications are for this world; you don’t have to wait for another life;

Life is what you see not some intangible hope or faith;

Who believes that anymore?

The world has plenty but only the swift can benefit;

To you hope I challenge you; you keep saying all it takes is faith;

Who wants faith in this world?

Would you rather I am like Job? No! No! Absolute time wastage;

Why work for a course that only brings pain?

My fellow so called friends or should I call you competition
(addressing despair and prostitution);

Tell it as it while we have the attention of her majesty hope;

Who claims that having faith is all it takes to move mountains.

What is mine is mine is mine to keep

War may rage around me; but I will not deter from this course;

I have been served raw deals before, why should I not do the same?

Grab what u can now; Judas must have learnt that!

You only live once; make the best of it

The life I have been handed leaves me no other options;

I’ve got to rub shoulders with the politically correct;

The ones who make your journey easier to bear;

Who would not want that?
