Poem
GOD NEEDS A GREEN CARD God had a green card But cannot get back in the gate. The Bricks are thick But not so tall, I think God may need to scale the wall. Are we safe in gated structures? Must we stay in this prison Where women are hated. We In tunnels where our bones are hidden. Where has, my mother gone My sisters have disappeared, been Abducted into a cult; Suspicious Disinterest displays their guilt. There has been nothing to report. Maybe she has run away To find a new God, someone has Touched her, she was not safe there In her own bed, in her own home. Some Black man-- Chanted hate lyrics At her; Encouraged by their overseers. Asian cultist cursed her in the womb. In India, they ostracized and brutalized Her melanin, Queen of England, a Voyeur watches through syphilitic Eyes without concern. Beautiful cocoa, vanilla, and mustard Babies sold or married off to smelly suitors for sex, before puberty; mere Children march, and are displayed For the wicked pleasures of men. But should I call them men? Remember, we once ruled this planet Remember, once we bore your beloved sons, Now we work and twerk our bodies As we answer to your perversions; We no longer dance to bring rain. We slide down poles reluctantly Displaying our pain. My mother is crying for me My sisters are crying for me. God will ignite the lamp of justice God now has her green card and shall Return us "Back to our Spiritual selves. We dared not become too ripe, though We must still be agile or we are thrown away Like rotten fruit, never to be seen again God now has her green card and Will return us back to our Spiritual State. Once again - You shall call us "Heaven". A woman, who created man in her womb. Became the enemy of man, and has been cast off. We cannot testify with ovaries or inverted testicles. Soon there was no natural preference No perspective of gender has man! Procreation ceased, the uterus forever Banned to bear ovarian fruit. We who be still alive wait. Awaiting a Foreign God who's eager to Receive her green card, and save us from our fate. From the hands of a wicked system We are doused in the agony of acid Women perish, For the mercy of death we pray. My mother is crying for me My sisters are crying for me. God will again ignite the lamp of justice God now has her green card; And shall return us to our spiritual state. Remember we once ruled this planet, We bore your unloved seeds, who You've turned against us; We shall Return them unto our bosoms.... And Once again, you shall call us " Heaven”! © Vicki Acquah Copyright © Vicki Acquah | Year Posted 2015
