Solved Africa’s catastrophes in one blast during <br />political discussion in French class – my theory; <br />the eighty year war between Holland and Spain <br />needs be refought IN Africa between States until <br />they realise they are killing themselves – and <br /> <br />England’s forays in Scotland and Ireland replayed <br />in the Congo, Rwanda and Zambia, plus a Roman <br />Empire of “toute l’Europe” rerun in Africa – only <br />after brutally hurting others can they understand <br />they hurt themselves <br /> <br />Foreign invaders’ puppets chosen State leaders <br />disappear, the people take their own interests to <br />heart, rejecting sell-out payments – learning true <br />governance; a long process, how many ages <br />did it take Europe to stop fighting, and what <br /> <br />United the German tribes? We needn’t despair <br />Africa’s future, we repeat other nations mistakes <br />in our maturation and then, after ages, we learn <br />to recognise the ‘we’ of ourselves and thus the <br />process to govern whom we are <br /> <br />3 April 2013<br /><br />Margaret Alice Second<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/african-scenery-revised/
