AMID COVID19
Brace yourself brace yourself brace Batswana
Covid19 has intruded our boarders
It came through marching like a marauder band
Reaping our rights off our shoulders
keeping us hostage in our own homesteads
My right of movement is limited
My right of association prohibited
I am on self association
The whole country is on lock-down
The moment I step outside covid19 Task force approaches with much resistance.
The protocol is to wear your mask sanitize and keep your distance.
