The Blame Game in African Harare

When Cholera attacks Harare
Blame the west for attempted mass destruction
And yet the west are asked to send vaccinations
To vaccinate people living in a a sovereign country

When ministers catch diarrhoea
Blame the west for attempted poisoning
And yet no one forced rotten bread into their mouths

When violence strikes in Harare
Blame the west for people's rebellion
And yet people can see police brutal killings

When children die of starvation
Blame the west for broad day murder
Yet the grabbed farms can only produce grass

When the president gets too frail to walk
Blame the west for poisoning his legs
Yet age cannot afford the energy desired

When billions become an everyday money
Blame the west for making Harare poor
And yet the country can only export violence

When people want to save that imprisoned country
Blame the west for unlawful invasions
Yet the president has invaded people's free will to live

When people talk of peace in Africa
Blame the west of attempted recolonisation
Yet Africa farts and farts loudly in its procastination
