Corruption
 
The big man gives gifts
 
His people buy homes and feast
 
A gutter boy wails
 
 
 
Short sleeve or long?
 
Liberty they shout!
 
Wielding their machetes high
 
Death will set you free
 
 
 
Overcoming Poverty
 
Patriarchal man
 
Don't wave that hand-out at me
 
We want trade, not aid
 
 
 
Hide from the world
 
Blindly the Donkey
 
Bucks biting flies, buries its head
 
In dry, oil-rich ground
 
 
 
Development
 
National values
 
Is oil a virtue or a curse?
 
Why not mine the mind?
 
 
 
Hope
 
From hatred and fear
 
War erupts and spreads like lava
 
Cracks of love bloom freedom
 
 
 
Memetic Injection
 
Infected with hate?
 
Vomiting anger and lies?
 
Vaccinate with love
 
 
 
Them
 
The government troops
 
Surrounding the refugees
 
See only rebel dead
 
 
 
Waste
 
The ground is fertile
 
They war and sow their blood
 
Ripe crops plowed under
 
 
 
A warning
 
Colonization?
 
African soil is thirsty
 
For a white man's blood
 
 
 
World Traveler
 
Where are you from son?
 
America is not enough?
 
United we stand
 
 
 
Holey?
 
Muslims in the North
 
Christians in the South
 
God in the middle?
 
 
 
Democide? Decide
 
Initiator
 
Or instigator State
 
Functions of the governed
