Who's Problem by Gonsalves Mpili


Once a upon a time,

Two people merge up,

Ant and the elephant,

Ant small became powerless,

Elephant the speaker,

Ant the listener,

Elephant stepped ant’s leg,

Elephant sorry,

Ant forgive,

They built a democratic house,

But elephant took large share,

While ant small share,

It’s just not fair,

I wish ant was bear,

Then ant kill and take care,

No love I dare,

Ant needs a revolution I swear,

To fight elephant so ant can be mayor,

Ask myself answer,

Who’s problem?
