WOMAN
Woman! Your second name is Intrigue!
Down the ages, you jeopardized man's destiny :
The Biblical Adam whose authority
You were to diligently serve and obey,
Became your first unlucky victim,
As you twisted his destiny with deceit.
Man has always been your love.
Yet, the worse opponent to attack.
Although man's energy is bull-like:
Bulling, boasting, dictating and domineering,
Your quiet simple dogged intrigue
Wins in all your entanglements with him.
You stage coups in the quiet of nights,
Humbling man to kneel-begging,
With a tender and pleading voice,
You put him on the begging side
Kneeling to achieve his pleasures,
Consenting to all your requests and wishes.
Your beauty and social attitudes
Are charming, tempting and intimidating.
The ignorant man is repeatedly told a message:
The loin cloth the woman looses and reties
An exercise she does once in a while,
The ignorant man not observing, nor knowing.
This exercise she ritually does:
One end of the cloth tied to the left.
And the other end tied to the right.
The message to the husband is clear!
"If my husband's care fails to satisfy me,
My children's care will do".
Powerful woman, kindly be merciful,
For nature made man and woman
And put them smoothly together,
Like two 'guayanas' intertwined,
To co-inhabit, co-love and co-procreate.
At the end, submitted to God's will.

NOTE: WOMAN
*This poem is about the intriguing nature of woman. It explores the nature of the relationship between a man (husband) and a woman (wife). For example, Eve, the woman deceived Adam into sin and his destiny, therefore changed, from the immortal man to the mortal.
Man gets woman and they marry, based on love and a high level of emotional play between them. But the husband in most unions becomes the object of daily negative discussions, of daily negative discussions as one who is causing most of her problems.
Man is very powerful and with authority over woman, but like a bull, this energy and authority are humbled at night. For example, he kneels and sometimes begs at night, "to achieve his pleasures", as if he did not pay bride -price to her parents at marriage.
The poem gives a life situation in which man becomes ignorant of what the wife tells him regularly. For example, the wife looses her loin cloth (even if the previous tieing is not weak) and reties it several times in the day. This she means : "If you fail to give me my life expectations, my children will do".
Hence, the poet submits to the situation and pleads with women to have mercy on men, since God designed a man and a woman to marry, live together and bring fort children for a purposeful life. With such submissions, God's blessings will surely come into the union making, marriage worth the while.*
Hehehe....The power of a woman
She could be loving and sweet but turn vicious when provoked.
I think this poem does justice to her power as a woman. Kudos to the poet.
That is exactly the power of woman.
Bro very nice poem and the best part i like is
You jeopardized man's destiny
Lol. Your are genius to figure out the man's problem.
It is easy for a man to get carried away with the trick of woman
Yes you are right. Is necessary so that he can understand that there is anther life who is waiting for you. Some women are Hoax for man.
Great poem and perfect message! It's great to see such beautiful poetry here, I think people don't appreciate poetry nowadays as much as they used to! :)
Some people appreciate poem, but some don't understand the meaning of the contests inside a particular poem. That was why I decided to interpret it.
That’s true, it’s like this with all art. But I think it’s beautiful, that everybody can see something different in it, not necessarily what the author meant, but unfortunately people don’t want to try to interpret sometimes
Lovely poem I must say. It vividly express the power of a woman and her relationship with men..
You stage coups in the quiet of nights. This attention caught my attention cause kind of experience something similar.
