ONE YEAR OF 'shege' (Pt. 1)

One year of travesty,
Absurdity and rascality
A year of impunity

One year of victimization
Persecution and prosecution
A year without a conviction

One year of punishment,
Disenchantment and disgruntlement
A year of disappointment

One year of anarchy,
Chaos, catastrophe and terror
A year of extreme horror

One year of oppression,
Suppression and deprivation
A year of starvation

One year of chains,
Handcuffs and shackles
A year of imprisonment

One year of pains
Suffering, wailing and mourning
A year of bereavement

One year of recklessness
Indebtedness and foolishness
A year full of wickedness

One year of miseries
Agonies and anguish
A year of untold hardship

One year of distress
Harassment and maltreatment
A year of torture

One year of scarcity
Begging and borrowing
A year of extreme lack

One year of hyper inflation,
Needless taxation, outrageous levy
A year of milking us dry

One year of locusts, termites,
Grasshoppers and cankerworms
A wasteful year
