Dangling the follies of crossfire
Crossing the political forest of leaders
Panting in agony of persistent hunger
Winking at desertification
Dancing to the orchestra of unity governments
Gesturing warlords their destruction
Wallowing the wings of despair
Passing through this intertwined economic recession
I am yearning for a forlorn of harmony bloom
Kalimbakatha Albert Chitsanzo (20th century) Malawi
