ALKEBULAN RAINBOW

Gary Booker

The primate bishop, with both hands clasped,

forsakes the rainbow nation.

The penitent Tutu kneels before his maker.

What has become of you, my Alkebulan rainbow.

For now you are free, but bleed the feeble.

Anarchy, the only dosage the rainbow nation endures.

Corruption, the best employer of the nation.

Human morality, does not exist.

Alkebulan rainbow, shine away the darkness of uncertainty,

and restore the spirit of Ubuntu.

    Corruption, the best employer of the nation.
    Not giving it much hope.
