Cellphones Doom

By Leonard Masauli

Like a prophet of doom
You have come to exist
With the good to assist
The Communication gap you have bridged
The people’s lives you have transformed
Like a friend, indeed we have grown

Today our mind you have corrupted
The dirty secrets, you have kept to hell
The lies you have made true
Like a mad man we are lost
In church you distract us
Reading the bible, you made us forget
Your facilities our faith you have stolen
Before you existed, we could be trusted
For love, the truth you have revealed
Could it be for long, Cellphone?
You have brought us the doom
