Will you be the man who
choking with desire to violate
for things as flimsy as her dress code
or reasons as 'justified' to high heavens
will choose to see humanity and not commodity
Will you be the judge who
true to the call of fairness
will resist allures of the possible
not turn our justice into merchandise
dispensed, but tempered with class
Will you be the employer who
torn between tribe and merit
will choose to see Kenyanity and not ethnicity
And now,
Will you be the voter who
faced with the vanity of 'our own'
will chose the person, not the party
effectively pronouncing death
to a politics of Ushenzi
Will you
or will you not be the one
