Alpha

Title:ALPHA Poet:Mizdee aka bossdiva I come from a land where men are gods and do no wrong But to exist, a crime, as a woman In my land pundits abound, in all sizes but a woman must be a face without a voice A land: where men are groomed to lead but a trimmed woman, like chameleon must blend into the shades of his glory In marital union when conflicts arise The alpha in him emerges vanquisher of 'demons' that give her voice Ever-changing times adorn him in a cloak of civilization underneath beats the heart of a savage left to chance He'll seal her lips with padlock Equally created, were they both by the giver of life to love, to cherish, to respect but a corrupt seed was sown Nevertheless: On the dawn of truth, a liberated woman will awake to unlearn each dark lie and speak, to the ears of the world...

I grew up watching my every woman that meant something to me being mistreated by their husbands and when the matter is been judged by the same hypocritical 'heads' of the family, the man is never found guilty. Females have been fed with lies that it is okay to be abused both physically and verbally and it has become a norm, but if I am the only woman that sees through the facade and lies, I am happy to single-handedly stand alone against domestic violence and abuse.
