Exploitation Poem by Ojeikpo Elijah

Exploitation, dark and foul,
Your grasp on humanity makes me scowl,
With greed and deceit, you take and take,
Leaving behind nothing but heartache.

You slyly manipulate and deceive,
For your own selfish gain, you never leave,
No care for the ones you leave behind,
You see them as pawns, mere tools to bind.

You exploit the earth, its resources and land,
Leaving destruction in your wake, a barren strand,
You take and use without a second thought,
Leaving scars and wounds, so deeply wrought.

Exploitation, you know no bounds,
You exploit the weak, the oppressed, the hounds,
Your hungry eyes, always seeking more,
Leaving behind a trail of misery and gore.

But fear not, for your reign will end,
As those you exploit, will rise and ascend,
We'll break free from your chains, your hold,
And in unity, we'll be strong and bold.

So hear me, your time is up,
For we'll fight against you, we won't give up,
We'll build a world where equality reigns,
And your selfish ways, will no longer remain.

Exploitation, your end is near,
For we'll stand together, without fear,
And in your place, love and compassion will thrive,
For a world without exploitation, is where we strive.
