Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!
Oxymoron
There is no racism today;
but why affirmative action.
There is no need for equality;
but we suffer invaluable differences.
There is no need for a sound education;
but everyone needs a degree to prosper.
There is no need for safety;
but there is danger of violence.
There is no need for celibacy;
but we have abortion.
There is no need for protection;
but we have aids.
There is no need to struggle;
but we want peace.
There is a need to love;
and love surrounds us.
