You Will Have To Cope With It As If It’s Standard Or Superlative 

Of Lies, Pies ‘n’ Promises

ZESA, is there light at the end of the shaky shaft? A no-power utility.   

Son, you will have to put up with garbage, what else do you expect

when you languish in a coo where lies are cooked ,colored, cuddled

as the truth, the one and only way to a dreamland of honey, not hell.

Where hearths, bulbs and stoves are alien to heat, light or cooking.

Where dimness is expediently mistaken for brightness and beauty.

Where vain and foul fawns and clowns will defend the indefensible.

They will convict anything, everything, everybody— nature included.

 

They will promote and praise either perpetually potholed roads,

or projects that have been in limbo for literally forty-four years,

and slam any sane soul who says it is good to be positive yet it

is naïve to abruptly believe that a man who botched to notch up

a tiring marathon race when he was young and strong— would superbly

win it at the age of 44 or at a ‘past’ one. Where is the logic? If naivety

were a soul, that soul would never ever see the light of redemption!

Well, the Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority has gloomy news.

ZESA has bared low and Lord-have-mercy scary load-shedding lists.

 

Tough luck, if you are not an adherent, a facilitator or a beneficiary

of the system, but what else do you think when you live in a bubble

where they do the same odd, old things over, yet expect unlike ends?

You will have to put up with lousier, lengthier and harsher periods

without power and peace. There is a solemn drought that is decreed

and depicted by an acute shortage of water. Perhaps that one can be

pardoned? However, the 44-year old drought of ideas and development,

hell no. Its colors: decay, damage and corruption. What did you expect?

Dear denizens, brace up for longer days of dryness, dreariness and denialism.
