Who Is Guilty
www.facebook.com/WRRPoetry [Who Is Guilty]

I.
Who is guilty?

We who endanger the next generation
Or you who destroys posterity?

Just wondering who is the culprit?

We who are insensitive to human needs
Or you who is callous?

We who rob to satisfy our needs
Or you who steals to waste it on vanity?

We who shed ‘small’ blood
Or you who commits genoicide?

Still wondering, who is guilty?

II.
Who is guilty?

I who cheer the cheat
Or you who harbour the criminal?

I who collaborate with the thief
Or you who sponsor the looting of the treasury?

I who congratulates the rewards of filthy lucre
Or you who crowns the inept?

Who really is guilty as charged?

We who encourage profanity
Or you who wears the garment of profiteering?

We who are shrewd capitalists
Or you who enslaves the innocent?

Who is guilty?

meet the poet: Passy Amaraegbu
