  Across the border, billionaires shout,
  Explain your riches!—dragged to the light.
  At home, the rich just dash and smile,
  money flying day and night.
  
  They bark at thieves from polished stages,
  promise cuffs, promise cells,
  then whisper soft behind the doors:
  I cover you—you cover me well.
  
  Make noise, look fierce, play the part,
  pretend the hunt is real.
  The Kissi tactic, kolongo kaya—
  justice staged, freedom sealed.
  
  When wealth has no beginning,
  and endings never come,
  they clap for anti-corruption plays
  while dancing to the same old drum.
