well-fed slaveA Poem by kudakwashe J ZiunyeSimply because of food many of us are slaves.Better be hungry and remain free in mind,thought and action.Its either you ARE or you are NOT.Make your mind today.You are responsible for your happiness.
In a forest glittering with rainbow choices
Do you still wish to be a prisoner With a plate full of food in your hands Why do you still feel condemned? Flamboyant existence is real but silly The dove of peace is no longer with you Comfort is pretending to offer you joy Yet in your heart you feel nothingness With a stomach full of delicious food While you wear expensive jewellery Do you ever dream of freedom To sing song of freedom,to be yourself Your stomach overloads- yes- but is it okay To sell your ambitions for a plate of Sadza Meditate upon the existence you could be With no limit and endless opportunities Think about this as you make a choice What kind of life.you wish to live To be well fed or to be free Make your decision today. © 2024 kudakwashe J Ziunye |
