WITH OUT AN ANCHOR

BY JOHN ODEY OKABO OBOYA ADUMA

 

We are now in a world without an anchor

And the ship is buffeting against

the stormy gale of the Atlantic.

 

Everything’s broken down and scattered,

And nothing holds the universe together any more,

As man has binned God and buried Him

in the junkyard of foolishness

plunging the world into an unprecedented

chaos and anarchy,

yoking all humanity to the dictatorship

of the far-right and their monstrous nationalism,

whilst the social media’s apostles and evangelists

preach their gambit gospel of post-truth,

spreading fake news.

 

This is our world;

a ship without the Captain,

morality and universal altruism;

a world where everything

has fallen apart and scattered!

Your world,

my world,

our world,

without an anchor-man,

nor the anchor Deity!
