Who Are You Really
Who are you really?
Born with name to define your existing presence
Words with which carry greater in essence
The day arrives when name is your flawed deference
Mother father chained me down against poor resistance
Cultural rites manifests my primordial consistence
Ignorance of both is a formula for a wasted existence
Only when ceded to this name are you released by persistence?
A name but a statistic of a criminal offence on a child’s response to an intolerant resistance
Systematically herded like sheep to a point of insistence
