Walkswagen (Poem by Aiko)

They said I have no importance in society, jobless,
Poor handwriting, no money in my hands,
Cursed, demon-possessed,
Noisy, depressed,
Ashame the family by wearing shorts,
Imagine things that cannot come true,
Would waste 10 Million UGX,
Hypocrite,
Arrogant,
Proud,
Coward,
Mad,
Shy,
Quiet,
Escaped from Butabika Mental Hospital,
Need psycho-social help,
Poverty-striken,
Starving,
Poor feeding,
Weak,
Sick,
Mufu [Deadbeat],
Ran out of oomph,
Leave home early and return late,
Never at home,
Unpaid,
Underpaid,
Unskilled,
Wasted school fees,
Junior,
Pauper,
Destitute,
Selfish,
Baby,
Small, small boy,
Shambaboy,
Toyboy,
Lousy,
Lazy,
Skinny,
Lonely,
Poor planning,
Powerless,
Cook things that won't taste delicious,
Did not deserve to be Headboy,
Will die young,
Have no luck,
Unsocial,
Unimpressive,
Everything I want to give her she will get from another man,
Gigolo,
Have a sugarmummy in Ntinda,
No wife,
No future,
Childless,
Not funny anymore,
Nagging,
Young spiritually,
Loser,
Uneducated,
Cannot even ride a bicycle,
Do not know how to draw,
Do not know how to use a computer,
Wife-snatcher,
Child molester,
Devil-worshipper, going to Hell,
Pussy mind to think Arsenal can beat a strong Chelsea,
Have marijuana still in my veins,
Useless man,
Earlyman,
Scrub,
Wannabe,
Hopeless,
Unemployed,
Know nothing,
Do nothing,
Do not want to work for NGOs,
Always indoors,
Parents are poor even though I can draw,
Mother died because I couldn't buy her food,
Slow,
Daft, stupid, fake and boring,
But I didn't commit suicide.
Here I am:
Depression is a choice!
Walkswagen;
Keep walking!
