American and African Women Not Alike
For bold references
Are the fat differences
Between Women of America
And The Sun-Blackened of Africa
Who in torrents sweat
But over this not fret
In no hurry to involve air-conditioners
Rather through prayers to God Petitioners …
The Jilted-By-Her-Lover cries her head off
While The American could The Idiot’s head blow off,
Knee-low skirts only for a nice story,
The American sure in Mini as much glory,
African breasts continue to suckling duties answer,
Their American Twin strangely disposed to cancer …
Her women politicians content with The Gentry
While the American hopes to steer her country,
The lips of her women are sealed to sex styles
Non-Censored Americans pairs on this rich files
Of course, The Scholarly American often eyes degrees
While The African quits when daddy agrees …
Guess now the point I want to strike:
American and African women not alike!
