It happened

Vengeance has to come since we glory in our sin
A season of recompense is at the gate
Everything we sow here on earth will find its way back to us
Many have chosen to be wicked to themselves and others
No doubt, vengeance is preparing a crown for them.
 
It happened.
The doubting Thomases said that there is no coronavirus
In their ignorance and backwardness
They refused to accept the obvious
They showed their backwardness in their thoughts, words and actions.
 
The mistake of our colonial masters is made manifest in their bringing us together as one
They are educated only when it comes to syphoning our money
They show their power in the practice of corruption
They only put their signature when looting is the order of the day.
 
It has happened and it came to pass
Barricade every international trip - departure or arrival
The whole world put a stop to every movement in and out of their countries
Other nations obeyed, but our greedy leaders refused to obey.
 
The masses complained and called for an address
It took them over one month to learn the pronunciation of the virus
As they came, it was difficult to heed to the warning
because their children were still out of the country.
 
No border closure, they said
Every border was made porous the more
They later came in with the disease on their shirts and trousers
They instantly agreed on the obvious when they heard of the money they were going to get from the world powers.
 
Coronavirus first signed its signature in their houses
Gbam! It happened
It stuck them and their senses are gone
Even what remained of the senses flushed away
Stay safe, stay at home and wash your hands, they refused.
 
They are dogs that eat their vomit
They wash their hands. Instead of throwing away the water, they drank it
They waited as if nothing happened
They went about their business sharing of money and palliative became the job of the Mighty, because they chased the massed back to their houses.
 
Now, they started dying in hundreds
Yet, they are in doubt of the obvious
To show their wickedness, they want to export the disease to God's children - the chosen race
It will not happen. They will not succeed because they were caught.
 
Can you destroy what God refuses to destroy?
Or kill whom God refuses to kill?
You took our collective money and gave to your people
Take also the collective disease and share to your people
Our disappointment is now a blessing in disguise.
