My Views 4

The poet talks about heritage and slavery in this composition.

The fools who are leading us do not know their heritage.

Our forefathers fought to liberate themselves from forced labour.

They killed the wicked slavers and burned down the Great Houses.

You honour some of them as National Heroes for their bravery,

Yet you are still preserving the Great houses that they despised.

The Great Houses belonged to the evil-minded British.

You foolishly regard the heritage of white people as your own.

Moreover, you teach this absolute garbage in your schools.

You display instruments of slavery in museums to make money.

Chains and shackles were not invented by African slaves.

What you are preserving is definitely not Jamaican heritage.

You do not have accurate knowledge about your history.

Author's Note

Jamaica is full of unwise politicians.
