PROWLING POLITICAL VAMPIRES
See them crawling out of their dirty holes again,
See them coming like roaring lions to devour Lion Mountain.
But who are they? And in whose name are they coming?
Me hear them calling themselves “the democrats”
Coming in the name of the Peoples democracy, they say.
These jiggers, cankerworms, bedbugs, stingy bees are everywhere,
Spreading lies about what they never did,
And false promises about what they‘ll never dream of doing.
Their agenda is to glutinously devour the green fields of Lion Mountain,
Forcing their compatriots to scramble for crumbs and die of hunger
In droves they come from far and near
To suck more blood and inflict more human suffering,
They parade pothole-infested roads and dark Street
With briefcases full of money stained with innocent blood.
When will the plundering and pillaging party be over?
See them crawling from their posh –out,
Coming again to kapu (amass) the remnants of their past vulture-like exploits:
Oh thou shameless and heartless blood suckers,
Are you not tired of churning out beggars’ and destitute?
These beggars and destitute are crying.
Crying for they’ll take their pound of flesh!
And the ICC will help them get it this time.
