Opinions

Everywhere I look,
There is an opinion on book,
There's an opinion on air,
On blogs, newspapers, talk shows
It is never rare.
There's an opinion about this and that,
The myriad of course doesn't last,
For they are just opinions,
Lacking of solutions,
and nobody cares.
These opinions,
Some irksome,
Others worrisome,
At the ruthlessness they voice,
So misguided, very dizzying,
The silliness will surely ensue.

If you felt the First Lady's dress wasn't right,
Apply as her fashion advisor,
If you feel mukimo is a lazy bad food,
Come up with a better recipe,
If you feel Lilian Muli desperately needs a new look,
Advice her.
Stop writing,
Avoid gossiping,
About it!
For they are just opinions,
Right or wrong,
Nobody cares.
Opinions are noise,
Unless there is a strategic process of changing what you don't like,
A guided appropriate process of appreciating what you do like.
Opinions are worthless,
Sometimes misused to gain fame,
Give life to the unpopular name.
Opinions are a proof of a conscious population,
but when talking is all that's done,
Creativity has sadly been assumed.
Opinions are careless,
There's a reason they are better kept to oneself.

So next time you have an opinion,
Take to the streets, write to the governor, go to court.
Otherwise your opinion will be just that,
Useless ,
Invisible like the passing wind.
