The statement above is denitely not a mere attempt at rhyming. It is, in
fact, a pointer to the fact that tomorrow is a harvest of today's seeds.
The reason why we have witnessed this dispensation turn into a sphere of
catastrophic moral decadence is because we've successfully raised a
generation that takes actions with only today in mind. We have arrived at
a time where the very consciousness of legacy has been ripped out of
consciousness and buried in the deepest of gutters.
News in the media now, is rated PG18 because of the dastardly acts
carried out by our populace.
“'Man rapes mother', 'Pastor sleeps with members wife', ' 2 billion found in
politician's country home', 'American citizen defrauded of $50, 000 by
unknown Nigerian Man',” amongst millions of other heinous crimes.
I will be bold to say that this is a lost generation.
But before this escalates into something else, before this earth is turned
into a totally insane space, so much so that the sane have no place in it
anymore, before these loose morals turn into a monstrous menace or re
that burns us like a furnace, may I offer a silent scream?
Man, woman, boy, girl, transgender, all existing sexes, I appeal to us all to
be legacy conscious. The earth we currently live in was handed over to us
by our fathers. But with the path we are toeing, we may well have nothing
to hand over to the generations to come other than a wasteland of
immorality, though it still be a land greatly endowed.
Generations are coming after us. Generations that may never even know
the denition of BAD because bad has become the norm. So on behalf of
the future, whose arrival we threaten, CAN WE HAVE A BIT OF SANITY?
Perhaps we so enjoy this carnival of loose morals that our lips cannot
speak about its ills. But think of the young girls to come, girls who may
never make it to age eleven with their virginity, because it was stolen by
their step fathers, pastors or those boys with sugar coated tongues. Think
of the thousands of young boys that will board the train of cyber-crime,
being so comfortable in it like it's some legitimate business. Think of the
millions of movies to come that'll teach our young populace that love is
simply meet, greet and have sex! Think of the bloodshed we will see after
our children have been taught that politics is a game well played with the
uid instrument, blood. Think of the many more evils that can eat away at
future generations.
We are a lost generation but we can be found. And perhaps you might not
like my sermon of Christ, even if it is no hidden fact that He is the sole
answer to our predicament, but can we at least try humanity's way??
Can we embrace SANITY in its ENTIRETY?
You very own,
The Silent Screamer.
