Married off to a hard-drive

You married me off to a

hard-drive.

That gave you status

Amongst your commune-pity.

It meant that

You could stand in front of your God

And say

‘Look what I sacrificed for your sake.

I handed her over to a computer

That had your words stored in his memory drive’;

As if the Universe hadn’t preserved it already

In all our hearts.

It meant that you could wash your hands

From the fear pouring from your palm,

Free yourself from the imagination of

One of your girls coming back home

With a broken hymen

Or with Jesus held in her arm.

You were afraid of the

Miracles

We’d blossom in

The hell you were in.

It meant that you could

Rest at night

Head high

From the whispers that reached you

Your name, the hot topic

Roaming

Between houses

Lingering

On your neighbours tongues

“What an achievement,

His son-in-law is God’s computer”.

Have you rested yet?

Has what you done given you the

Piece?

You thought you’d harvest?

He married me off to a hard-drive

It was hard drive

A hard rive

but…

I’ve mastered all its gears

Its become water

In the path ways

Of my palm.

He married me off to a hard-rive

Before any of you jump

And eat his skin raw

BACK OFF!!!

This is my Father.

The reason why i am here

Freeing you all

From the dimensions

You’ve chained yourself to.

The soul that held me

And caressed my cries to sleep,

Worked all his life,

For me to be the Woman i am

Today.

Even if he hates,

The version I’ve blossomed into

I am the work of his hands.

I don’t hate him,

Because through him i

Have learnt forgiveness

I learnt that his love

was wrapped in ignorance

And that

His protection,

Took the image of wolves,

To quench the thirst

Of his Taurus.

How could i blame a person

Who tried to be the

Human

In a Jungle

Full of Vampires

Who built their Van empires

From dead meat,

Rotten flesh,

And gooey blood.

Before any of you

Jump

And eat his skin raw

BACK OFF!!! BACK OFF!!

This is my Father.

He gifted me the experience of

Prophets.

I became the engineer

To they’re corrupt system.

I hacked their codes

And here i am

Dismantling the equation

Of a fragile cobweb.

I witnessed the shadow and light

Within their movement and through it,

I was honoured to enter

The world of the Unseen,

To witness that

Our Creator, even

In the midst of liars

hypocrites

Is always able to tell the

Truth.

I wore the

Crown of Justice,

The throne rested on my shoulders

I became the Phoenix,

Stretched my legs forward,

And I let my

sea sail me into

The light.
