Sacrificial Goats

Written by Posted on Less than 0 min read

People sacrifice poor goats
To seek divine intervention
In a hope to ward off
A bad omen or ill fate.

It’s an act of savagery
Under the false notion –
Sacrifice of an innocent soul
Can head off another…

When will our people awake
To make a common sacrifice
Of the real sacrificial goats –
Chronic scams, corruption and favoritism?
