UNFAZED !

Her face depicted the colors of her struggle
Her efforts spelled strive
She was, “good”

She walked softly down the streets
Swaying her hips swiftly left to right,
However much she tried, the sharpness of her bones were still seen through her wearable,
She was a bag of bones
Very narrow, wanting flesh, But her confidence was pleasantly full and mellow
Twas strong; intense

She tried,
It was evident
She wanted to achieve good looks
Wearing a hairpiece covering the head and made of synthetic hair,
Wearing a well done make up,
Not to enhance her beauty but to distinguish her gender
Ain’t saying she was less appealing,
But through the eyes of a normal person she was.
She tried, MI!
Swaying her imaginary hips faster
Seeking attention, all in vain, not even a single ‘pssss’
Not even the often encountered comments, ‘huyu dem ni mamba’
I guess she didn’t meet their standards of beautiful, But she was self-asserting…

She had an appreciatable piercing on her nose,
A nice tattoo on her neck which was not that visible because of her soot dark skin.
The area around her chest was like a level tract of land, flat!
Her dressing was all to cock, unsatisfactory, mixed up in colors, But the trial could be seen..

She was not what the normal human being perceives as beautiful,
She was not delighting the senses or exciting intellectual or emotional admiration,
Her skin seemed not to accept the effects of water,
Her skin was not soft, not tolerant, incapable of endurance.
Her face was characterized by jolts and irregular movements, bumpy despite the well done make up, But she had the freedom from doubt,she looked like one who believed in herself.

She looked easy,
Characterized by great expanse of thought,
She looked sure,
characterized by conscious design of what she was doing,
But the collective community treated her with contempt..
I saw an outstanding example of the female specie in her,
I saw her strenuous effort,
I knew she would make better, so I inspired her with confidence,
She expressed that emotion by curving her lips upward…
She was and is a member of the human race, she needed and needs her self-esteem intact and craned too !
