POlitical Poetry: Positive Blues

Where there was a Papa Jay
There is a K4.

Where there was a Konadu
There is a Theresa.

Where there was a 31st
There is a Mother & Child.

Where there was a Kume Preko
There is a Wahala.

Where there was an Alliance
There is a Committee.

Where there was a Vision
There is a Strategy.

Where there was an Asemfofro
There is a Stadium.

Where there was an NDC
There is an NPP.

The NDC was for Continuity!
The NPP was for Change!!

The NDC is for Change!
The NPP is for Continuity!!

NDC-speak was NPP-speak.
NPP-speak was NDC-speak.

The NDC is the NPP is the NDC!
The NPP is the NDC is the NPP!

The wheels have turned
And still remain forever still!!!

Positive Change!
Positive Blues!!
Positive Déjà vu!!!

The colour of my flag @ 50
Red, Gold, Green with the Black Star.

What is the colour of your flag?

God Bless Our Homeland, Ghana
@ 50, It Is Time to Think Ghana!!!
