Unripe Harvest
OH HELL WORLD!
Someone, anyone!
Help me understand
How!!
How could you
Look at her innocence
And see a jar of honey
Afford a drool!?
Do you happen to speak Booboo?
Did she understand you?
Let me get this right
You looked at her hips swing,
Yeah!?
Looked at her boobies
MH!!
Looked at her hair swing
HUH!!
Someone!! HELLO!! SOMEONE!!
Remember when we visited
Carried NANA shakers?
Seeing her laugh
How it made us laugh
The twist!!
hell the twist
You thought of bringing a banquet
Rather a chocolate box?
MH!!
Maybe a nice red dress, some designer heels
Is it her BOOBOO laugh gave you a hard on?
DEVIL?!!
How could you?
Mama left the baby with her “papa”
Papa turned into “DADDY?!”
your palm sized daughter….
Look at her now
Doesn't know anything
Yet her eyes speak of shame,
embarrassment Regrets filled in her
Why she was brought to this world
A question she asks herself
looks at us as the devil
looks at the world like hell itself
is it maybe it is
when she asks
where will you be
forgive you we might
will she ?
how id like to see you answer her
why she is not sealed like her friends
who gave away her innocence
who took away her pride
who deserved her that much
who will wash away the tears
who daddy tell me who?
