-WHO IS THIS AFRICAN WOMAN- Who is this African Woman? Don’t muzzle the ox, which thread on the field. The African hope deserves hope. Blood and pain for the girl of dark skin. Worthy damsel of blackness. Test her worthiness by infibulating; Break her softness with the cow horn. Force her maturity in streaming tears and racking pain. This is the African woman. Who is this African Woman? Mother of a continent, yet without formal content. Strip her dignity by the brutal thrusts of masculine savagery. Helpless and hopeless, confine her to soothe.

There is nothing to write; This mind is tired of any fight; It whispers rest it is night; But there is this feeling that something is not right. There is nothing to write; Yet the will is being stired for a fight; It counsels strike just at night; When it feels that things are just right. There is nothing to write; Yet the pen swings left and then right; I use my thoughts to light up the night; Hopefully my draft brings end to all fight. There is really nothing to write; I hope the strokes are really all right; Sleep encourages me to lay still coz it's night; Tomorrow we would pick up a new fight. Good Night Hagia Sophia wrote
