Politics Poem by Kgosigkadi Asher Mavuso

Politics and I never get positively political together
Politics are full of lies, betrayal and hypocrisy
Politics are back stabbers

I am monogamous
I am full of joy, peace and happiness
I love, care and protect

Politics are polygamous
Politics I don’t know “what the hell is that? ”
Yet I care, love and protect

I positively become political too
As I need us to be one
As I want us to be happy together

You paint, scalp and shade yourself
So I never overstand your originality
Thus I never understand your true self

You politically present your statement
“Look into my eyes baby and let truth be told” you state
“I love you, ” you elaborate
Persuade and convince me to be
Then I’m in bed with you

Your demands rise with time
But your love never grows

All I get is promises, promises, promises

I regret ever meeting you
I despise ever loving you
I forbid peace, love and care for you.
