SKIN BLEACHING

 

Mankind!

Those Before and Beyond

None shall escape judgment

Whereas skin Bleaching

Is Evil

Beneath The Eyes

Of The Supreme

Hurriedly

Let us make a halt

To such an in-human

Act of Ignorance

Against the Almighty

Through

The influence of Evil?

Bleaching

Of the Dermis

Accumulating sin for Hell

Too severe for

We the helpless

And tiny Relics

Deviating from our

Natural set up

Converting to artificial

Work of Satan

For nothing except

Worldly idle?

As

Unhealthy as skin Bleaching

Scientific in reality

Performed by we

The servants of Allah

The Almighty

An act of Haram (ungodly)

Of the sordid reality

That

Life after death

We must be accountable

For our deeds?

Mankind!

In the 21st century

None shall escape

The reach of The Supreme

Remember

Covid-19 Pandemic

Bush fire in harmattan

Another table salt

Being adjusted onto pepper

The woes of

Today’s Global Mess

 As judgment looms imminently

The supreme

Awaits in Eternity?

The Ancestral Heritage of

Black Dynasty

The Africa Continent

Is suffocated with civil strife

Innocent Blood getting spilled

Like

Limpopo River Meandering

Herds of desperate Refugees

There: Where: Here: When

How and Why?

Mother of lullaby

The Ancestral Dynasty

Of cultural

Norms and Values

Are the only therapy

To the excruciating pain

Of mother Africas wound?
