The Girl Child
The core of the universe
And the brightest light in the streak.
The determined challenger
And the last runner in the race.
The girl child.
She holds on to her belts
And let’s no one take her credit.
She tirelessly sweats under the rains
And holds those that have lost hope on their wrists
The girl child.
The source of all rebuke
To all forms of evil
Rape, corruption, injustice and massacre.
I unleash the cry of the suffering girl child.
“I begged for justice
I prayed for peace
I longed for unity”
The determined challenger
The last runner in the race.
