What do I know about maternity?
The Heavily Pregnant’ Fraternity…
First, labor cries a continuity,
Next, shouts of victory an eternity:
Lord God’s words had never returned empty,
Mothers with new babes, their strengths empty:
All of them just won the longest battle;
When occasioned wrongs attract no rattle…
Where you don’t meet smart men or The
More of “Father” Seeker than Gold Digger,
Male doctors, male nurses plus their husbands,
Young men there during labor beaten bands!
Where cut are cords joining mum and babies
But restored through breast milk to the babies
Careless still-births could maternities kill,
Wide gulfs created few midwives refill;
They know when to tell The Laborers “Push”
For maternities not sited in bush.
Ward's fat wife in a maternity,
He in their TABCAN Fraternity...
And Ward can't see the insanity:
Wife who had bled quite a quantity,
There with Ruth only a brutality;
A blinding by TABCAN's sanctity...
TABCAN that grants with authority
The hateful wishes of minority,
Its abhorred area of specialty
Speedy making of one casualty...
Not to okay enemy's demise
Even at this hour Compromise...
For a good ten years seeking a child
But now to some life wants to be wild
And while hoping for his child's safe birth
Home returning with a killer's mirth.
Today is exactly The Day
I said I must find my way
Out of a Taxed Uterus,
With odds getting numerous:
Fifty-Two not Twenty-Five
Splendid to be still alive!
A Uterus that saw Hell,
When I started sounding my bell;
Doctor sure ‘The Post-Mature’
Now responding to Nature
A Most Terrible Bleeding,
Even as she kept pleading,
The time: Night’s 11: 15
Of A Rainy June 15
And I heard: staying at church
While Nigerian Bombs did search…
Today Short Story Writer,
In Poetry, too, A Fighter…
My Birthday with Whole Chicken
I shall the parts be picking
Though, Lover of Pig’s Bacon
No Slaughterer to beckon…
Time, to thank Well–Wisher Kim,
For last year I’d ignored him;
Time too far much sanity
To honor Maternity.
Born in the same hospital as Victory,
A set record and enviable history;
For the benefit of the Self- Deceived,
With the gloves of the same midwife received
And in case another tries to lead one astray,
He from victory but a cot away!
Both blokes the achievement of the same maternity,
Between the two an infant-rooted fraternity.
From the Do-or- Die Sprouts, staggering skill
And from him a conqueror’s rare will
Yet, from him also, the foulest rough play
Besides terrible things one mustn’t say.
After a defeat judged upsetting
Starts a battle with cascading tears
And for a performance ruled irritating
Eyes as deadly as spears.
The Do-or-Die Athlete could make The Alive The late
Enough water for the blood-smeared hands of Pilate.
A midwife harassing a woman in labour
Spread your legs now
And to further instruction bow
Or I shall phone your man
And tell him every rubbish I can.
Your two knees facing the ceiling
Or with stricter midwives be dealing
Armed with their taming cane
Sure to once again make you sane.
Your favourite lying sex position
You’d been making a nightly decision
That eventually got matters to this stage,
Opening as it were this challenging page!
And stop you must your moans;
These needless whines and annoying groans,
When flow finer sounds can from your throat
In our maternity, mother like verses quote...
Where the once heavy
Finally goes home with her baby.

Landing sites
For fish fished
From womb lakes
Cock got virgin spouse
they spent nice times together
she sang melodies to boyfriend
but soon she was pregnant
labor moment came with pains
Cock went to maternity ward
asking for space to labor the child
but one child it was not
One, two, three, many children
girlfriend gave birth
midwives were tired, not Cock
eyes- babies did not have
mouth- babies did not have
nose babies did not have
body- babies did not have
only round oval they were
But cock was not moved
he consoled spouse on and on
“21 days we shall be happy”
It happened; beautiful babies
came from manger
hail-storm gathered, kite licked its lips
and mongoose wagged its tail
the Cock never worried
he kept on scouting and crowing
alerting all that he was super power
