Is it Yours or Mine?
Is it yours or mine?
I say Halal but you opt for Swine,
Instigation of our present situation,
Different levelled standing was the implementation,
Self inflicted?
Or pertaining to a cotton coloured wish-list?
We walk in this concrete illusion,
as borrowers; to be owners would mark collusion,
Identifying the authentic ownership creates more conundrums,
To qualify is to be part of the supreme ones?
But.......who are Supreme?
How about those that contributed as the rebuilding team?
Consuming craft, culture and cooking relevant to your mind,
But alien to your tongue,
Attributed through experience as one climbs another foreign rung,
However, a given one?
Given when scouted to become brothers to THEIR sisters, over to our father land as a son,
WE gave to YOU, thus can we have a little reciprocation,
Appreciation?
Reparation?
Or just a little return?
Still lost in translation- YOUR speech I cannot learn!
And you ignore mine,
It would seem we will only ever converse from behind.
As much as you are lost,
Understand, We too are bewildered whilst we pray to your cross,
Doing as we were told,
Reminiscent!
Moving as we were sold,
The past is easier repressed,
When present society doesn’t still show signs that depress,
Thus to move forward takes admittance on both behalf’s,
Is it YOURS or MINE?
There is blame on both OUR parts.
