The ugly side of our beautiful city

THERE is a sickening way of doing things being perpetuated by our businessmen that Yours Truly has witnessed over the years in our beautiful city.

While we have unfortunate cases of underprivileged children and orphans in our midst, some of them physically challenged and deserving assistance of any sort, our businessmen, in their wisdom or sheer lack of it, find it prudent to channel their resources towards paying uncultured morons known as maGiant.

These brawny good-for-nothing mercenaries have caused sleepless nights to innocent souls around the city, making a name for themselves out of terrorising people as they abuse the God-given gift of physical strength.

Dear reader, you could be wondering what exactly is Yours Truly blabbering about.

Read on!

Yours Truly feels sorry for this other once feared monya who is now battling for dear life as he is always in and out of hospital.

We all know he was dark like shoe polish, but as Your Truly pens this piece, he is now darker than shoe polish and coal combined.

This is all because of his deteriorating health condition. The once fiercely huge frame has been reduced to a skinny pencil slim figure fit for a female modelling contest.

The dreaded boisterous voice that used to hurl insults and slurs to innocent victims in the streets has been reduced to mews of a cat as he twitches at the jab of medical injections.

That is nature for you!

It has its own way of reminding us that we are all human and not demi-gods as some would want to think when they are on top of their game.

Be nice to everyone and always remember that some of these people we terrorise shed 'very dangerous tears'. Put simply, vamwe vane misodzi yekitsi! Like I said, Yours Truly never celebrates misfortune and it is sad that it had to go this way for our once intimidating brother.

Blabber urges this dear brother of ours to adhere to his medication and desist from visiting places that tempt him into abusing alcohol and other promiscuous conduct since he is not yet fit for such excursions.

He was once out of hospital and instead of taking time to fully recover, it was not long before he started patronising different watering holes and his health deteriorated again.

This is just a lesson to the like-minded. Once again, for the record, Blabber does not celebrate misfortune, never! Instead, Yours Truly chooses to draw lessons from the unfortunate incidents that some of peers find themselves in.

Those with ears have heard. Always remember to take good care of your loved ones.

Till then!
