& its been a while while since i posted in freestyle..


Women of Buhodle

Allah has called you
By your appellation

Naya
Lady
Bibi


Jump up
And beat down
The patriarchal
Worms eating you
From the inside

Swaying honeys
Your transparent
Cloth wont cover
Up body fat
And curves of
Loneliness

Don’t kill

Us

To be Adam’s
Bruised rib
Beaten by passion
Wrapped in a dirty
Niqaab

Dear mother,
Willingness
Chants in the dawn
Between
Yes and no
Later and now

When comfort found
You in silent compromise
And I wish Hope
Could challenge
Your fire to burn
Down sterilized
Dreams
And scattered pieces of you
Rotten in United Nations
Neglected camps
Where confrontation
Sleeps
In between two
Clans on the
Cushion of
A nation

Woman of Buhodle

I hear your stumbling
Cry

Because

“ drum are never beaten without a reason”



____

no coco no cry ©


*TWINNING*

hate keeps my teeth white
