Wicked Genes

Wicked Genes

Have you considered the many techie graveyards littered with DDT, Agent Orange and all?

Peddler of wicked genes, will you slide on gene drives?
Knocking out, annihilating traits and yellowing all fruit flies?
Have you considered the many techie graveyards littered with DDT, Agent Orange and all?
Malaria will not be an excuse for you to unleash wahala on our already broken backs

You create a poison and sell the antidote
You create a virus and market anti-virus

Don’t crush my cultural webs, ecosystems and bio diversities
Just because you can spit in Mother Earth’s face
Trample on Genesis
And flaunt genetically modified technocrats

HIV-AIDS, Ebola, Zika…
Scratch your pouch and unleash some more

We see through your shady genetic scissors, errors and terrors
Your hypothetical benefits drowned in oceans of unquestionable risks
Time it is to break your addiction to crooked technofixes cause our DNA is not for sale,
Nor are we guinea pigs for your gene driven exterminator technologies
