TODAY’S WOMAN



Today’s woman
She wants a mansion-worth pizza
Her dreadful, dreamful dreams
To marry a man who already has a driver
Four wheels. ATM lover.
Impossible possibilities she demands
All in a moment
Me. I have brains
That’s insane!
She doesn’t mind
She would have preferred if I had trains!
Trains that could travel the whole wide world
Not brains that someday promise to be a pearl

Today’s woman
Skimpy skinny skin
Borrowed identity till eternity
Her pomade belongs to her aunty
Her make-up, her granny
Inhumane human hair
Brazilian and worth fortunes
Shoes that are worth misfortunes
Shoes with hooves
That one day would make her still; not move

Is today’s woman a woman?
Cooking skills thrown to the dogs
Etiquette tossed to the hogs
Financial strength stressed on porks
Though she can drive not
Her wishes can drive you nuts!
Jezebel look-alike
Finger nails as nail-like as the spike
Artificial body parts
Hair, face, hands and even heart

Till date, today’s woman
Another man born out of a man
Struggling to strangle the power of a deity’s son
Affirmative action
Tweaa. Don’t mention
When Adams were wrestling wrests after rest, where was their function?
Under hell’s light, called Sun, Adam’s writhe without unction
Only for Eves to complain about mansions

Today’s woman
Crying me a river to buy her the sea
To feed her every pleasure with undue pressure
All for free
Denying my vision today for another man with a television
Let me remind her
I’ll be on her television tomorrow sharing my vision
And lessons on her yesterday’s ignorance!
