»Political Condoms«

by Christopher Kudyahakudadirwe

Stampeding stumps of limbs
Gnarled by the stuccattoing bombs
Of a war that they never started
Gesticulate accusing fingers
To those who reap where they didn't
sow.
Their remains nourish the soil
Of a country they died for.
Their sweat waters deligently
The deserts of poverty and inequality.
Their efforts are betrayed and unrecognised.
Political condoms – that's what they are.
