How Bizarre Poem by Margaret Alice Second

How Bizarre



The morally corrupt Afrikaner culture of racial discrimination
still brands their government system morally justified - calling
all its Freedom Fighter opponents Marxist & inveighing against
the ruling ANC as communists

Rejecting Freedom Charter and Constitution as socialist, the
Human Rights Declaration anathema to Afrikaners, pointing
out corruption of ANC cadres long before they took the reins,
hiding the same during Afrikaner reign

The old regime of good governance, laws and regulations, was
immoral with racist laws inhumane; yet their propaganda just
ignores the Apartheid crime - besides it's irrelevant whether
exiled ANC leaders were corrupt -

Fact is Madiba used the ANC to bring peace when our country
burned - although the ANC falls into the same traps that keep
Africa back, failing to educate & improve the poor’s situation
thus seething masses destroy everything

Why respect infrastructure when poverty keeps them from
enjoying benefits; cheap labour enables ANC to perpetrate
the same slavery enjoyed by supremacists, but it’s no longer
policy to suppress any race

New regimes have to redress 500-year European Supremacy,
without experience they must save an illiterate continent and
refugees filter in every day – and some still arrogantly preach
racial prejudice?

A religious people founded racial segregation on the Bible –
now these people still tote religion as moral foundation
for today’s society? How bizarre, how
quaintly absurd…
