Wicked Women, Wise Women
Wisdom wonders in thy wealthy wells
Oh, oasis of opportunities and obeisance
Many men got matured through thy mentorship
Edification of the enslaved is the desired ends
Novice never niggles in her noble nursery
World of wickedness and woes
Opening lives to oppression and offence
Mighty men are marred by thy members
Elites are eroded by thy errors
Novices are not for they entered thy net
Women: world of wisdom and woes
Operating with openness and onslaught
Many were martyred by thy matriarchal mask
Errors and excellence are enclosed in thy essence
Now I know, you’ve got novelty and naughtiness
