Divine Intervention
The tribulation of women under men
Had a start and will have an end,
Says the millennia old book of books.
It will end by divine intervention!
The book tells of a blessed start of man,
Living in an earthly paradise,
Living unclad like the other creatures,
The cows, the whales, insects and all.
Their maker made them a seminal pair
That would gradually fill the Earth,
Enveloped in harmony
And marital bliss for all couples.
The book says that God loves freedom,...
That he calls transgressors to account,...
That all his children have a duty to obey
And if they err to bear the consequences.
Eve and Adam went astray
Because they were intoxicated by freedom.
They ate food to vomiting point,
After being misled by an older brother.
The book says that God made no bones about
A new trajectory for the woman:
"The man is going to dominate you."
Genesis chapter three verse sixteen.
As in heaven also upon Earth
God has some disobedient children,
Fleshly and spirit, who must account
And none of them can escape his justice.
Meantime "Your man will dominate you"
Still holds, and our older brothers
Are causing women a lot of suffering,
Added to women's own misalignment.
What's the hope for women now?
Genesis three verse fifteen says
The older brother will be bruised in the head,
Not by God but by his agent.
That agent would've demonstrated
To younger ones of the family
How to show deference to the father.
Women who follow that one are blessed.
This then is the divine intervention
That will end gender based violence
Permanently on all the planet -
A feat men only pay lip service to! one
