Lords of Poverty.

"They call the developing world the lazy man's purview; the sluggishly slothful and languorous prefecture. In this realm people are sleepy, dreamy, torpid, lethargic, and therefore indigent - totally penniless, needy, destitute, poverty- stricken, disfavoured and impoverished."

Africa is the trailblazer. Some still call it "the dark continent, a giant in a coma, awaiting the Amargedeon."

For the light that flickers at the end of the tunnel is not that of hope, but an approaching train. And because countless keep waiting in the railway of the train, millions die and many more remain decapitated by the day. It is a mum/mystic how we can effortlessly and ironically pretend to be swinging from rafters with our genitals in our hands and watch ourselves die.

THARI E NTSHO, RE KA GARE GA BOTHAATA

"Don't blame it on slavery, like African-Americans do, or colonialism, or a psychological impact or stigmatisation. Don't give me the brainwash poppycock. Give me a better answer."

"Well you see, fellow black folk: our kind is lazy. When we rest our big bald heads on the pillow we don't dream big. We amongst the so-called African intellectuals are lazy, the whole lot of us. It is you and I, and not those poor, starving people, who are the reason Africa is in such a deplorable state."

"Poor and uneducated Africans are the most hard-working people on Earth."
Do you know where black intellectual folk is? He is in bars, quaffing. He is at Golf Clubs, parties, bashes, he is satisfying his libido with naïve underage/young girls. He is a contradiction. Black folks are alcoholic graduates. Black intellectual folk, works from eight to five and spend the evening drinking. He does not reserve the evening for brainstorming. Ooh what a bunch of pilgarlics.

With a beverage in their dark pigmented grasp, black folks call themselves graduates, researchers and scientists, and at a supersonic speed, they are quick to articulate their credentials once asked.
"Oh, I have a PhD in this and that - PhD my foot."

"Ye Ye I'm studying LLB" but you/me cannot put that to use! Indeed black folk is a lazy poltroon!
"Let us get over this white skin syndrome and begin to feel confident. Become innovative and make our own stuff, Black folk, you are NOT on your own!"
