A SCARED UGANDAN
In hiding and fear i write
Trying to be polite
but with a lot of disappointment in this village .
i see too much hate among the people but embedded with love and need to see change in their village .
But how can i be polite
yet deep down my heart is bleeding and soaked in pain and hate .
Hate for whats happening in my village.
Freedom fighters and the innocent being hurt .
For how long should the pearl of Africa cry ?
If you stand and say anything against the governance of this village ,then you stand a chance to win death,prison ,unbearable torture and more tragedy .
But all in all lets try.
try to make whats wrong right .
Oh lord ,the Pearl of Africa has turned into the pearl of agony .
where has peace and justice for the poor and needy gone?
Only the rich and those in the "thing" (mu kintu),siting near the heads of the village are in harmony .
Some of our brothers and sisters run out of this village to look for money .
So that they can pay rent, school fees and buy some honey for their family to be in harmony.
But only to land in modern slavery and agony.
who will save our village if the devoted ones are being crucified .
Yet the others are for God and my family instead of for God and my country.
If i start narrating the unsolved and unaccounted for murder cases ,
i may not survive to see tomorrow when the old man for the village is paying for his sins and cases.
But we have to stay strong until we overcome,
so that we can welcome
the new era which is to come.
