CONFUSED

Confused by
The testimony that followed
The announcement of election results.
Depending on you to give justice
or take justice.
Confused by
The words of the learned friends,
Attacking and counter attacking
Defending a client whichever way
That made my mirror bleak
And mind weak…
In my heart only improper analysis
Wait for my children when tomorrow comes

Confused by
The beautiful lips of Mutula’s daughter
Standing in for her fathers’ team
Like her father, firm
Like her father, fluent
Like father like daughter, indeed.

Confused by
The sharp tongue of a top law maker
Standing in for a colleague,
A law maker
Standing in for a tribes mate.

Atleast,
This is how we see!
When you stand for reason
Let reason not be of your colour,
When you stand for principle
Be loose to lose;
Just be lacking, in a principle sense.

Confused by

the arguments in place,

The votes “overwhelming”

The case is “Underwhelming”

Every party had a part to play

The party agents watch, monitor

The presiding officer manages

And the Returning officer announces

Where in the link was the mistake?

If there occurred an error

Did the agents raise it? Or was it an error,

Too?

Still confused by

The Kenyan democracy.

Not that there is no equality,

But, there is nothing like democracy…

If there was democracy it would have come after “MOI”

It would have come after KANU.

Ten years later, the slogan reads the same,

“IT IS OUR TIME TO EAT”
