Judgment Day: A Pidgin Poem on Justice and Hope

Every night, gunshots ring out on our village roads. Bad people kidnap and kill without fear. Families bury loved ones while the police stay silent. We live in constant dread. This poem speaks for the lost children, the hopeless parents, and the empty streets. It questions who will protect the poor and holds out hope that a day of reckoning will come. When justice fails today, belief in future accountability helps us endure the fear. Reflection Question: When justice is silent now, how does hope for a Judgment Day keep us going?
