Leah See

1817 – 1897

I lived 80 long years.
Struggling with sickness and deprivation.
Toiling like a slave
In the mad heat of 80 summers
And the bone-numbing cold of 79 winters.
Striving and straining for happiness and earthly fulfillment.
No man or woman, or God even,
Can take away my honest dealings...

O LORD for great pain
     Cruel suffering caused
     Fierce threat they present
Slash each cancer mass
     Leah's body from
Let not one escape
     Please do not relent

Toxic chemo drugs

when they come for you
with a fistful of “legal”
excuses,
covered in camo, bearing guns &
battering rams,
when they handcuff you &
the people you live with,
when they turn your house upside 
down &
accuse you of being in places
that you haven’t been,
when they make you aware that
they know what...

hear me speak and keep it JUDGEMENTAL
my weapon is a pen, and life is my pencil
mistakes are erased, pace your every breath
I know your every words, it's my escape

Intrepid damsel,
a heroine unsung.
A willing martyr
with courage
unrivalled.
Unransomed captive
with a ransom
infinite.
She gladly faces
death with eternity
in view.
Like her lover before her,
she chooses to be
a sacrificial lamb
to the slaughter.
Leah Sharibu,
the heroine unsung.
She that chooses to mortify
her passions
for timeless paradise.
Hardly daunted by
Kalashnikovs and
thunderous explosives,
she inherits a world
deemed abstract by
unfaithful...

“The rope round Leah’s neck 
Shall soon Leah’s life wreck’’: 
Give Leah her first chance 
For a funny dance
From a climbed stool
Removed as a rule…

Yes, Leah’s first full chance 
For a last Quaint Dance…
And I shall advance 
Of Course, Mark Evans,
Man of Relevance;
To stretch Leah’s...

Theresa had a quirk.
She had perfected the twerk.
She did it at work.
She wore a smirk.
And found out her boss had gone berserk.

She twerked over to find

Leah didn't mind.
She fell in line.
And they twerked back over to finish this rhyme....
