PHD Syndrome

By Asempa Abankwa Okyere
PHD Syndrome
11.06.2017 LISTEN

This is the society we live in,
Where hardships pierce dreams as pin.
Climb up and receive a pull instead of a push,
There and then your joy would change to 'oush'...

This is the life we live and admire in skirts;
Where ladies pull down men like short skirts,
And men change ladies like boxers,
To wash or discard and punch as do boxers...
Welcome to the life of PHD:
Where everyone has an HND,
To destroy instead of helping.
Those with MBA to share experience end up destroying...

Africa is a land that destroys dreams
And dirty all streams
Meant to alleviate and annihilate
All adversity with the rich resources and climate...

A new Nkrumah must arrive,
A new Gaddafi should emerge to drive,
A new Mandela would do,
And all Abacha and his kind, pushed to go!
