The woman


The woman is not too strong a vessel for you to pour all your debris. The woman is no mirror for you to practice the strength of your stunts. The woman is too fragile to compound the African power, but unfortunately she is their biggest threat. The woman is the only entity not lacking in all Grandma's recipe. She isn't like some mashed potatoes who only strength is only in claiming super with no priority. The woman is a lover, a helper and not some brainless old woman with falling breast. She has feelings and is no rock The woman is the African identity and not a game of cards or Ayo. She is the final mediator, so show me respect l The woman is not lazy, she is not a punishment from your ancestors. She is more than a passage that aids creation. The woman is a seeker So if she finds you searching and reaching out She might want you The woman should not be double crossed, her venom can't be compared. If you have a woman you have a gift. Because W is a winner O is an orator M is a mediator A is an authoritarian N is a nation builder. If you have a woman reverence her or someone might help And am proud to be his woman.
