CAN’T TELL THEM APART



BY LUCKY JOSEPH


Good and Bad
Used to be this and that…
Sworn enemies
Agreed on nothing
Went to war over everything
Areas of cooperation?
Not on your life!
Long gone is the divide.

Bad goes to church with Good –
He was made an Elder recently!
He gives lots of long testimonies

A lot of them about is ill-gotten monies
After church, Good grooves like mad
In the good company of Elder Bad
At nightclubs and strip joints
Good says he loves the atmosphere
Seeing the beauty of God’s creation
Parade without inhibition…

Like it was before Adam’s transgression
In the office and everywhere else,
None can tell Good from Bad
He gives and takes just like Bad
His favourite scripture –
A man’s gift makes room for him!
The way Good is going
He’ll soon be worse than Bad!


Smokin’ Gun’s response:
When good and bad call a truce
It means the conscience has been slain.
When the line between good and bad becomes blurred
It is a sign that the destruction of a nation, society or group has begun.
When moral values are no longer distinct like night and day,
Then the destruction of all that is sacred stares us in the face.
