It is wrong and immoral to seek to escape the consequences of one’s acts. ― Mahatma Gandhi
Good men prefer to be accountable.- Michael Edwardes
caretakers all
that is who we are
caretakers
we take care for
the OWNER.
you are beautiful
there is none like you
venus de milo is ugly
in comparison to you
you are GOD’s work
at the beginning of time
he made you without
any flaw
your legs are proportionate
your body adequate
your skin like that of a
new born babe
your colour fitting and proper
your body
a paragon of beauty and wonder
you are not the
OWNER.
you didn’t make yourself
you are not the creator
you are a caretaker.
one day, one time
the OWNER
will ask for ACCOUNT.
how have you used
your beauty?
are you a helen of troy
always causing DISCORD?
are you the source of
DESTRUCTION
or the cause of WAR?
one day, one time
one moment
the OWNER
will ask for ACCOUNT.
you are INTLLIGENT
you are a genius
nobody thinks like you
you are einstein, soyinka
newton and emeagwali
combined
nobody reasons like you
you are unequalled
when it comes to sense
and intelligence
everybody respects and wonder
about your brain
you are the acme of
your race
the primus inter pares
of your age
when it comes to brain power
you are not the OWNER
of this brain power
you are not creator of
yourself
you are the CARETAKER
one day, one time
the OWNER
comes for the ACCOUNT.
what account will you give
my brother?
what account will you give
my sister?
how have you used your brain?
are you a developer
or are you a destroyer?
are you like the internet creators?
the mobile phone inventors?
or
are you the inventor
of the nuclear bomb?
is your brain channelled
into saving lives
or into destroying lives?
are your theories the plank
for survival of millions
or are they for the
extermination of billions?
one day, my friend, one day
the OWNER
will come asking for the ACCOUNT.
