The era of a hero who was a zero
Must come to a sunset and death
The dome of senseless rule to deaths it led
At peak zeroes increased as value decreased
Increase our wisdom Oh God divine
Decrease the greed and inrease the care
The poor all moan and groan for life
So long the wails have risen
In you Oh mighty, Let power be seen
To shift the earth and perch in Zim
So many have gone to lions in in forests
To scrounge and scrape like never before
Yet now so norm the scatter has taught
Yet home ,so poised the spring awaits
Come home, Come home , the spirit calls
To all thus scattered around the globe
You are mine , Mother Zim affirms
Zim is mine one man once said
The truth remains Zim bore us all
Not to for one man to own all Zim
Too long you've been scorned and mocked for me
Yet now the chance , gives power to you
Make me , the Old pride that was at first
Scramble, Scramble it was back then
Exodus , Escape today most do
I need you all my people for pride
You're skilled though I 'm killed
To life bring me , You have the power
Be filled with zeal, to seal the deal
Hope filled , spirit filled, Zim filled

After a month of silence due to the ongoing international developments in America, Pirates, Madonna's divorce and the continuous stubborness by the President of Zimbabwe, I shall now speak. It is dispecable for Zimbabweans to remain silent, to be this passive in response to the situation. So many Zimbabweans wail and lament that the opposition is not doing enough..the issue is , Are you doing enough.
This is a struggle of the masses. It the onus is solely placed on the MDC as a party, then futility is the outcome. There is need for the burial of fera in the vocabulary of the people. It is the people's battle and the leaders will only thrive inthe water. Why not take out the old fish and put in the fresh fish....A paoplle driven struggle is the answer, outside the will and blood of the masses, it is sad to say that the future will not bear fruit, Unless a seed is sown in the earth , there will not be any harvest, Mbuya Nehanda's bones must rise in you and me and history will smile on her as the dream of her moral heart shall find satisfaction in the realisation of the People's will. If Martin Luther King had a dream, hen Mbuya Nehanda and Sekuru Kaguvi had the Hpoe that we all must live up to make history. Zimbabweans...ENGAGE!!

- Michael Chipato is a social and development scientist currently living in Birmingham.Over the years issues pertaining social inequalities, dictatorship, political oppression and gender disparities have been his research focus.As an artist, journalist and academic Michael's philosophy of life is greatly influenced by Léopold Sédar Senghor (9 October 1906 – 20 December 2001) ... a Senegalese poet, politician, and cultural theorist who served as the first president of Senegal (1960–1980). Senghor was the first African to sit as a member of the Académie française. He was also the founder of the political party called the Senegalese Democratic Bloc. He is regarded by many as one of the most important African intellectuals of the 20th century. Senghor created the concept of Négritude, an important intellectual movement that sought to assert and to valorize what they believed to be distinctive African characteristics, values, and aesthetics..He does not condone oppression and violence in any shape or form.
