Two elegant ladies stroll along the streets of the old Jamestown district
A derelict place where the memory of the Gold Coast still thrives
The colonial name of Ghana, the vestiges of plunder and pillage
The ruins of sorrowful times once built over the ruins of a glorious African Empire
The departure gates for the infamous Middle Passage where so many died
Nowadays, they still die crossing the desert or the Mediterranean Sea
Fleeing the economic duress and neocolonial wars imposed by their past masters
There is no shelter from the greed and the selfish souls of a contrived civilization
