Eyes roving like a famished lion.
Gazing upon the young maidenHer innocent eyes begging for mercy…
Eyes filled with fear
Wondering what crime she committedHe feels a part of him bulging
The maiden is ripe for ravaging
He stares at the innocent eyes and hesitates
An image from the 6th century flashes….
A 53 years old lion feasting on a 9 years old lamb
He is reassured and moves in for the kill
He unleashes his lust, the young maiden is ravished
Lust appeased, he abandons the conquered maiden
On the prowl for another maiden
The maiden is guilty! She is guilty!
She is guilty because she is a girl, she is guilty because she is so young
She is guilty because she is supple; she is guilty because she is lissome
She looks for succor, but there is none…. No one cares about a young maiden in the desert……
Dedicated to the girl child in Nigeria…. #Drian'Gold #MBACHU
