Scarecrow, simply a straw man
Dimitri D. Kwenda

HOOK:nI'm a straw man, raised in a modern worldnIn the hills of the capital, I can't get any worknA misfit in the midst of a capital surgenA vagabond scarecrow with not maize field to go tonnHey, straw man praised in forgotten wordsnAll I witness are giants wilt away my worthnI'm sick to the gut as the anger swirlsnScarecrow man, simply a straw mannnVERSE I:nA honk, honk behind ya, are my people listeningnPoetry is in motion trying to draw your perceptionsnAs this millenium hit, a grand corporate shiftnAnd this perpetual drif brings greater economicsnPolitics is in a whole new overdrivenTo bribe, the lay man and revive the power to buynFrom the Zimbabwean debatenTo the black U.S head of statenDemocracy the latest comoditynAt the grand table of policynDo't think of condescension, listen to what I'm sayingnWomen becoming presidents witout enough influencenThink! Your attention is beinge sparred withnThe humane battle they took so long to addressnAnd suddenly, the subtleties are in a finer concerntrationnThe coincidence of Obama and the latest recession!nnHOOK:nnVERSE II:nFor years it has been the acknowledgement of mannThat the prevalence of harmony is the emergence of a championnThe question is, who ismost fit to govern humanitynFor an eternity we've agreed and sucked at unitynEgotism and a cunning diplomacynHas brought hedonists to being the makers of policiesnAnd to those who lose jobs and really are in neednIn Africa you starve unless you live illegallynThe makers of the greater crime, remain inchargenSetting the police hounds on the weak and the starvednAnd they possess the press, so they won't ever confessnBut then again we all know this, it's all such a messnWhat I pray is in the lands of independencenWhere freedom and justice are in a rhetorical pressnWe might start making a little extra roomnTo accommodate the scarecrows we forcefully removednnHOOK:nnVERSE III:nA honk, honk once more is somebody there?nAm I betrayed by the ears of tose who claim to care?nThe timitd, big hearted in pipe dreamsnOnly awakening to perpetrate a similar tyrannynCoz in an environment of a capitalistnThe derilicts are the powerlessnTheir voices are for pacifistsnWhose sympathies are a paralysisnAnd, they can not be fronntrunners for any convictionnMartyrs of a religion are a mythical preachingnUnfortunately cause is juxtapose with consequencenComplements of attempting to overthrow any dominancenTo my president and all members of governmentnMy conviction is a bold and simple statementnTo the earnest and benevolent continue in perseverencenBut I hope the malicious and malevolent burn in a hell in a penance!nnHOOK:
