Special Poem about Election 2016 in Ghana

THE WAGES OF ERRORS

Did you know that if the wages of sin is death

Then the wages of errors is murder?

Murder of ambitions

Murder of aspirations

Murder of imaginations

Murder of lofty dreams

Did you know that errors could block  

Your path to the royal palace

Where your steps could kick the royal gate

Yet your “faux-pas” not offer you the key?

Did you know that common errors

Could usher you into the kings chamber

Yet your buttocks ‘ll not touch the golden stool?

Oh beauteous brilliant bold daughters of our land!

Oh braggart bravado big boys of our land!

Beware of errors

For they can be the OBRAFO

Of your tender dreams

Oh beloved mama of aspiring souls!

Have mercy upon your wayward kids

As long as we remain human

We shall continue to tread

In the forest of errors

In spite of their legal misdemeanor

On humanitarian grounds

Shall we be a bit lenient

To those who navigate towards errors?
