TRAUMATIZE


Rape


she was stripped of her dignity
By men of moral decadence 
She kept mute,
And live to see all men as evil
She bled in her heart of hearts 
But knew no one to confide in
Because to her all are evil
To her life is unpleasant 
To her God is unfair:

To have allowed her to be victims of evil
Unfair, to have even watched them laughing her to scorn
Unfair, not to have  erased them with thunder, 
Even while they were perpetrating the evil
Even she arraigned herself in a costly garment; 

She's naked as far as she's concern
She's mean to all men
 Even to her blood brother
Why this hatred against your own kind? 
But she wouldn't talk
Yet,  she's pained

Once a lively girl,  now arrogant and hurt
What demons possess her?
No one knew because she's mute
Yet,  she's Pained 
Hurting girl hurt

 She was sobered, cried without tears. 
Asked Many questions with words un-utter
Lost friends,
The family enjoy her no more 
She was pained but she wouldn't talk! 

She wouldn't talk because :
Of emotional trauma, 
the stigma that hangs around it
The shame of losing one dignity to many rods at a moment
Hence the eternal grudges against men.

IT MATTER

IT MATTER! The topic to be discussed today is ‘it matter’, but the question is, what matters? Join me as we look into this deeply.  When I was in secondary school my Agricultural science teacher taught us then GERMINATION and the factor responsible for growth. Some of the factors are: viable seeds, moisture or water, nutrient (soil) and air (oxygen) When I meditatively considered these factors I realized that not even one out of them is un-important. If any of them isn’t available then the seed growth or germination is in jeopardy. Applying this into our lives’ journey as humans, it is evident that some factors also responsible for our own growth in every endeavors of life. Some take this serious while some others don’t.  When I say growth I do not mean increase in the number of age. Neither do I mean increase in stature. We grow in business, career, and ministry and so on. For us to grow in life we need to take these factors seriously. For instance the viabil...

I PROPOSED A DECEIT

I was born when the time was still partially measured by the throaty crow of the cocks. When if cock refuses to crow, the time was measured by the height of shadow.  I can still very much remember how my father would say the time is three o'clock in the afternoon because the shadow had reached a certain height on the wall in our backyard. Sometimes I was wowed at the level of his intelligence.  He didn't mark that particular spot on the wall and he never for once missed it. I tried doing but kept on missing it. Then, I used charcoal to Mark it. Isn't beautiful to say I also measured time by the height of shadow? Winks.  My father was a farmer and partially a hunter. He was very diligent and good at what he does. He had cocoa, cola nut, plantain, yam, maize, cowpea, and rice farms. He was rich in goats, and different kinds of fowls. Apart from the fact that he uses labor we the children were also part of the labors employ on his farm.  We worked all ye...

MY GHETTO CRUSH

Beauty, I think is very hard to come by. Sometimes I did say beauty is peculiar to a particular tribe, location, and or area. It never occurs to me that it can be found in any other place aside from those special places. I had determined whenever I want to get married my eyes would be on those choice locations where beauty resides. Where does beauty reside? I had asked myself this question and my answer has always been beauty has a special location.  This I believe until I met this lady whose beauty is not of this planet. This is not an exaggeration but my way of telling the wonderful work of creation I met in the ghetto. If there are many of you in the world then the company produce makes up or makeover tools will pack up in no time. Or they wouldn't have come into being in the first place. Your beauty to me defeats the purpose of using those artificial ingredients because you are beautifully crafted by the alamo to mo eda (I.e. the potter that molded human). If you ref...
