Africa

Aid Operations

And covert manipulations

Help or hinder?

You be the decider

Are we feeding the hungry and clothing the naked?

Or starving a culture and stripping its dignity

Rumpled and tossed in a Western hamper

I am my brother’s keeper.

But are you Cain?

Or are you Abel cuz I can’t tell

The difference between the truths and the stereotypes

You create, perpetuate and sell

A saver or a savior? Dare I ask the question:

Are either really needed?

Warnings of misplaced intentions are never heeded

Cuz last time I checked a savior has already died and risen

And He never left the “saved” in a Western media prison

Is rocking out with Bono in your red Gap Ts

Actually about aid or making television scenes

I guess you have to determine if the ends justify the means.
