Toll gate


 





Tollgate so tall and tormenting
Towering the roads
Bullying drivers
Robing the nation of its money
You only know how to take
You take money in all denominations
One dollar ,two dollar,three dollars,four dollars,five dollars
Small cars,haulage trucks, buses and lorries all stop
They all stop to pay for a  stagnant service
Yes stagnant ,for the roads are dead


Our roads are dead and delapidated
Your pockets are fat
Fat ,,and you are phating our drivers money
Toll gate ..you take from the road
But the road has turned into potholes ,
Holes of dust ,holes of accidents... 
 You give birth and abort..

This happens because we tend to live life focusing on the problems and challenges that come with it .When we are imprisoned by dire circumstances we lose confidence and behave more like desperate naïve individuals whose lives are just but like reeds shaken by the wind for fear closes our eyes, failure shuts us out from the world of success and poverty enslaves our minds .Open your eyes and you will realise that you have the potential to be respected like Oliver Mtukudzi (international icon and renowned Zimbabwean musician) and the power to be celebrated like Oliver Tambo (a South African liberation hero and a champion of democracy and equality ).The  are some many Oliver`s out there and all of us have the potential to be the best Oliver and this we can achieve by occupying time ...
