PERSPECTIVE
Tell me what you see
Tell me what you hear,
Tell me what you think is clear.
There are many voices speaking,
There are many ghosts in corners squeaking.
Everybody is shouting loud,
Nobody is getting heard.
Everyone is saying something,
And yet everyone is hearing nothing.

Is Donald Trump really colluding with Russia?
If so, is it really a bad thing?
Is the "democracy" of the democrats out to get him?
Or is it just a losers' witch hunt?
Nothing is ever as straight forward as it seems,
Especially in the political scene.
Politics is like a girl who is humble and virgin at morning light
And yet displays all her amenities by night.

Is the Ugandan government the only villain in the story?
Is there an opposition party?
Or are they different sides of the same coin?

Isn't everyone centrally a racist?
When we turn our backs on our brothers and sisters;
Of different tribes and different colors;
Isn't that what racism really means?
How can we really end racism
When as black people we display racism towards whites?

Is light better than darkness?
Or is darkness the sweet prequel before light?
Are we who we say we are?
Do you intend to keep your word when you shake that hand?
Do you intend to truly Love that girl when you put that ring through her finger?
Can you honestly say you fight for justice
When towards that child you pull the trigger?

Can I honestly say that I am who I'd say I would be?
Can I honestly say that the person that you meet everyday is really me?
