This Woman

This Woman! Raped beyond pity Her previously pointing twins Stretched beyond elasticity limits One, to Northern excessively burning bushes The other, to South-Southern malnourished fishes This Woman! Whose once-upon-a-time chic cheeks kissed, teased, now pierced to bleed Blood, tears, even with running nostrils This Woman! Her lying thighs with supposed Apologists turn Rapists This woman! Drugged to a seemingly permanent sleep This woman! Brutally massaged deep, deep. She lay bare, plunged by Leeches She's vulnerable, drunk on Whiskey No form to call-back her senses Or even guard her helpless defenses This Woman! Beaten and smitten by aged Cankerworms In feathers, harshly gathered against her norms Of Justice, Equity, Peace and Love This Woman! 4 times 54 times; gang-raped By some tumbling wobbling human 'ape' Looted her treasured cave- Muted her lettered babes This Woman! Wake, Walk, Stop being down-pinned!! This woman! Pick-up the shattered pieces Of the counts-reeled by Injustice This Woman! Arise with shield and Buckler Let yours hands meet, conquer Oh you sleeping Giant in tatters Arise! Arise!! Arise!!! #Nigeria@54
