Yolks of Despondency

Your family is under unknown spell
A poisonous serpent placed on your snap
And your caricature tied with Italian handcuffs
You hear hyenas growling at night in your home
Causing rampant fear and sleepless night
Your brother is bedridden suffering from Ebola
Your Father is ailing from a mysterious disease
Crops never materialized to a bumper harvest
The village is now against you and your family
When you travelled you escaped with injuries
These are the efforts of the forces of darkness
Which are hanging over your shoulder and family
The forces have to be broken through incantation
How gullible men have fallen to fraudsters
And most of our evangelical pastors are in this

Take a town or a village medicine man
Probably this is what you will hear
They have engaged the limbic system of beings
Who easily think they can solve their problems
Are you suffering from an incurable disease
Do you earnestly want a promotion at workplace
Are you having problems with the opposite sex
Is your wife cheating on you with another man
You want get rich quick and be the envy of peers
That business you started has been doing badly
You rarely sleep at night due to worries
Your only child has joined bad company
You see her and her ancestors in your dreams
These are the symptoms of  a calamity in your life
Take this concoction daily after cock crow
Mind you for it should be taken in camera
If so the powers will work perfectly
Failure of which dire repercussions will ensue

In all cases you give money after medication
The world is a very terrible place to be in
Advertisements all over to cure all problems
If you had a fight with your wife
The pastor will solve the bitter animosity
The conniving medicine man calls self ‘doctor’
They will do anything to make you believe them
Yet nothing positive comes out of their efforts
Who will expose this naughty conmen
Expose the vice they engage to eke a living
To put our people on the dark on the know
Susceptible they have become to mere gimmicks
It is up to one to take precaution
