Virgin Flesh

VIRGIN  FLESH.
Rainbow  of  light
Bright  as  life,
Equals  the  virgin  
Sight,
Of  my  infants  cry.
The  way  time  fly’s
You  should  understand
Man  equals  lies,
We  multiple  without
Size.
South  of  the  Carrabin
Dressed  in  my  prime,
I  carry  this  nine  heavy
Lime,
Ready  to  climb,
Efforts  of  my  fathers
Wine.
Reason  to  this  rhyme,
Time  comes  with  no  dime
He  also  lives  on  the  same
Spine.
Celebrate  my  shine
Welcome  every  child,
Show  him  function
Of  the  eyes,
Prophesize  wise  words  into
This  life.
Let  the  heart  regulate
With  the  stars
He  must  rise  against
Every  drought,
And  remain  forever
Proud
As  he  reckons  with  the
Night.
                                                                                                                 AKEWUSOLA  HABIB.
