Poetic Verses
Those effects
How can those with any feeling go to loot
And from other countries people uproot
Knowing that they are in a place of happiness
Now forced into of situation that fuels sadness
And on that slaver were like cattle yoked
Packed like sardines so tightly even choked
Those braved ones jumped overboard willingly
To escape a life that they perceived as austerity
On board they were given a form of nourishment
As the food preserved had a very high content
Just enough to keep of starvation
Later one can see the startling effects on the generation
On land had to work and survive in adverse conditions
This was perform with no form of remuneration
Even when they tire and this may cause a slip
The sentiments were conveyed by the crack of the whip
How they were made to feel less than a human
And there was nobody who cared about to their situation
But it was hurting to see how the masters flaunt
The riches enjoyed from they labour it seemed like a taunt
Pressure, perhaps economic too brought emancipation
What happened then would cause a state of depression
After slaving and being tethered to the plantation
Some of the owners were given compensation
But even today one can still see the exploitation
There is that using the talents of our musicians
One can see the adaptation of the rhythm
Being concealed perhaps subtly in a form of hybridization
There is no doubt that the salty preservation
Have an impact on the lives of the generation
As the descendants are being affected by hypertension
And it has to be brought under control by three types of medication
And from other countries people uproot
Knowing that they are in a place of happiness
Now forced into of situation that fuels sadness
And on that slaver were like cattle yoked
Packed like sardines so tightly even choked
Those braved ones jumped overboard willingly
To escape a life that they perceived as austerity
On board they were given a form of nourishment
As the food preserved had a very high content
Just enough to keep of starvation
Later one can see the startling effects on the generation
On land had to work and survive in adverse conditions
This was perform with no form of remuneration
Even when they tire and this may cause a slip
The sentiments were conveyed by the crack of the whip
How they were made to feel less than a human
And there was nobody who cared about to their situation
But it was hurting to see how the masters flaunt
The riches enjoyed from they labour it seemed like a taunt
