WOMANITY
She cannot rule her world
Her voice is too tiny to be heard
Her body is too feeble to withstand the hurdles of life
Her strength is channeled towards only one thing... procreation
Lifeless is her time, it cannot exist
Like a stick, her will can be bent
She cannot even stick to a cognomen, her maiden name
And like the lame, she settles wherever she's pushed
Even the fame she claims is the product of her shame...her harlot#y
In case she plays the game, tell her the win is for the gents
Tell her men take the lead
She has to be led
All these are but words of the thoughtless
So, let me tell you a storyππ½
The story of Jane Austen, the one whom pen bleeds great words
Maya Angelou, the Phenomenal woman
Queen Amina of Zaria, the legendary queen
Queen Moremi, the Messiah of the Yoruba
Marie Curie, beauty with brain
Let me tell you the story of Chimamanda, the writer of the nation
Naomi Osaka, Asisat Oshoala, the queens of the pitch
Serena Williams, the slam goddess
Ngozi Iweala, Our own Pepper Potts, the iron woman
Alhanislam, maker of verses
The laudable rhymer, Memunat Alli
These are women of substance
Woman! Dare to be one
Strength is your demeanor, greatness is your embroidery
You're beautiful just the way you are.
Thank you for reading.
