THE BILL

 The Bill

 

The Bill , then

The default

The prophetic warnings ignored serially

The water will be cut off

 

 

The Bill, was due

They defaulted

The letters threatened vehemently

The water will be cut off

 

The rains will cease

The draught with start

The rivers will halt

All frozen by wickedness

 

Warn the fish to set their house in order

Warn mami water to migrate to the Atlantic

Warn the cattle to write their wills

The herdsmen will soon disperse.

 

Who will battle the cloud’s boycott

Of an earth soaked in blood

They Shoot at the clouds and seek a leak

yet no rain will fall.

 

The Bills should have been pain with love

Compassion and kindness

Paid to the vulnerable ones

God’s cashiers on Earth

 

The Bill was justice

Good will and equity

 bestowed in small instalments

On the divine tax collectors

 

The great hate the poor

But they cannot hate water

Crocodile tears on all the faces

The water has been cut off.

 

Humanity failed before the crops failed

Famine reigns with allies of hunger

Death looks on about to strike

The looting start but no what we thought

 

They stepped past the Gucci

And raided the fridges

The revolt, a preparation

For a hunger revolution

 

Command the troops to bomb the clouds

Shoot the river beds And threaten the rain

Mother nature is fighting for her children

The cabals are thirsty, the water has won

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After the famine, a spring comes forth

Flowing to all the land bringing peace

The kindness returns, the great ae now humble

The Bill has been paid, the water is back on
