WOMEN EMANCIPATION

A MAN’S WORLD

If tears and fears

Could be called to tell

I know much women tears

Will rise from the grave

And whine at the unfairness

That sent them there

Tears of those who suffered

Extreme jealousies which

Were interpreted as witchcraft

Tears of those beaten and stoned

To death for following their weird passions

And tears of the neglected and rejected

III

How much tears the earth has drunk

In the quietude of darkness!

In the bosom on hatred!

In the airs of many eye!

Who knows how most women cry

Until the sweat in their bodies

Are forced out by coffins’ oven?

Just a simple Ghanaian trying to find the best in our society. I may be fun, I may be interesting, I may be funny, I may even be foolish or intelligent, but it is all based on the mood in which you find yourself. I believe our minds make us who we are. Know that, pain, no matter its 'unbearability', is transient. Unburden or delight yourself for a while in my writings please. And all corrections, advice and opinions are welcome. Know that you are the king, queen or royal on this blog. :)
